Publisher's Summary

Imagine a virus so deadly it could alter the course of human history. In the wrong hands, a bioweapon more destructive than anthrax and smallpox combined.

Congo Variant is the new, fast-paced thriller from the author of the best-selling Hurst Chronicles series.

Dr. Alice Bishop, a promising rookie in the field of infectious diseases, is assigned to a scientific expedition exploring deep within the Congo rainforest. Her mission: to trace the origins of a mysterious outbreak before war engulfs central Africa. As she descends deeper into the unknown what she finds is more terrifying than anyone dared fear.

Half a world away, MI6 operative Blake Harris, embedded in a United Nations inspection team, probes the truth behind Iraq's weapons program as the Allies' patience with Saddam Hussein begins to wane. Harris must embark on his most dangerous mission yet searching for evidence in war-torn Iraq before time runs out.

As their paths intertwine, Harris and Bishop stumble upon a terrifying plot that could plunge the Western World into chaos with unimaginable consequences.

Congo Variant is the gripping first instalment of an action-packed series that takes you on a thrilling journey through Iraq and Central Africa. A story set against the backdrop of the explosive events leading up to Operation Desert Fox and the Allied bombing of Baghdad in 1998.

If you enjoy edge-of-your-seat thrillers like Contagion, Outbreak, The Cobra Event and The Hot Zone then you’ll love Congo Variant. Get ready for heart-pounding suspense and grab your copy of book one today.

Waste of time & money

I tried, I honestly tried. After 4 hours of listening to this book I had to give up.

Overall idea of the book was good, but the continuous emphasis on the characters feelings & emotions slows the storyline. An entire chapter on the main character sitting at the pub getting teased by her friends about not being married yet.... Come on...

The narration could be improved as well. Often times you can hear him breathing and putting on some ridiculous accents.

Don't waste your time and money on this
