Leigh's skills are desperately needed to identify and stop the pathogen's spread before it explodes into a global pandemic.Austen's team of scientists and armed security set off into the epicenter of the hot zone: over a mile straight down the throat of the Karakul, the deepest open-pit mine in Asia. From there, they'll contend with treacherous military officers, caverns filled with scalding-hot poisonous gas, and an organism so deadly it annihilated the dinosaurs sixty-five million years ago. What Leigh and her people discover will shake them to their very core.If they survive.Author's Note: The Devil's Noose: A Pandemic Medical Thriller is a self-contained work and does not end on a cliffhanger. It contains a limited amount of strong language, gore, and some graphic violence. Ratings-wise, it would either be a hard PG-13 or soft R. Please decide to purchase accordingly.
Ophelia Banks, a brilliant yet uncredentialed junior-level tester, lies to her supervisor about the purpose of a personal check. The lie escalates from the check to the creation of a fictitious online NGO, to the NGO's presence in a fictitious country with a fictitious population, to the fictitious country's integration with both Yotta.com, the world's largest online corporation, and the Agency facility in Bluffdale, Utah. The fictitious country emerges from the political toil of Kazakhstan, falling ever deeper into the geopolitics and economy of the real world. The online country satisfies the addictive needs for attention, intimacy, social connection, curiosity, greed, power, information, and truth of the characters unknowingly caught in the web of deceit. The forces that fuel the illusion grow beyond Ophelia's ability to control them. When the illusion collapses, it exposes the vulnerability of each character's online addictions, resulting in real and dire consequences for the characters and all of online society.
