THE VIRON CONSPIRACY (JAKE SCARNE THRILLERS Book 4)
LAWRENCE DE MARIA'S ACCLAIMED THRILLERS AND MYSTERIES HAVE "A TOUCH OF BOURNE, A DASH OF BOND AND A SPRIG OF SPENSER". (John Crudele, the New York Post)
Jake Scarne is asked to investigate a notorious murder in Hawaii that the police are sure they have already solved. After all, there is fingerprint evidence, plenty of witnesses – and a confession from the now-dead killer.
Scarne is reluctant to get involved, even when a prominent Chicago law firm representing the victim’s widow dangles a huge fee in his face. Then he finds out who the widow is!
With strange disease outbreaks occurring across the globe, Scarne’s investigation soon uncovers an international conspiracy fueled by perverted science.
Against the backdrop of his own personal turmoil, Scarne’s hunt for a murderer in THE VIRON CONSPIRACY turns into a race against time, in which thousands, perhaps millions, of lives are at stake.
