Synopsis:
What would happen if a respected American corporation agreed to develop chemical warfare on behalf of an anonymous client who turned out to be enemy terrorists? That's the central question in Morris' second novel, which blends high-end finance with international intrigue. At the centre of it all is Tim Mack, a trader who left a New York firm to begin anew in San Diego. Just as his life is starting to feel on track again, his new firm suffers a monumental blow when the research lab of a key client explodes, apparently exposing survivors and clean-up crew to a mysterious virus. San Diego detective Bob Moore senses there's more behind the explosion than a mere lab accident, and he and Tim unite to try to unravel the mystery.
