Summary

The Black Death killed almost half of Europe's population. This time it will be billions.

New Orleans has been quarantined, an unknown virus sweeping the city, killing 100 percent of those infected. The Center for Disease Control, desperate to find a cure, is approached by BioDyne Pharma who reveal a former employee has turned a cutting-edge medical treatment capable of targeting specific genetic sequences into a weapon, and released it.

CIA Special Agent Dylan Kane has been given one guideline from his boss: Consider yourself unleashed, leaving Kane and New Orleans Police Detective Isabelle Laprise battling to stay alive as an insidious disease and terrified mobs spread through the city while they desperately seek those behind the greatest crime ever perpetrated.

The stakes have never been higher as Kane battles to save not only his friends and the country he loves, but all of mankind.

not in the same league as previous book in series

I did so very much enjoy J Robert Kennedy's previous book, Rogue Operator: Special Agent Dylan Kane Thrillers Series, Book 1.
Sadly this fails to live up to that at all. First the story is too single dimensional and just a bit dull. Whilst the characters from book 1 obviously come back in, they do not seem to be used as well, and their lives are not developed further, very disappointing. The narrator was good as ever, but for me this was a missed opportunity. I considered stopping part way through, but decided to listen to all of it. It did improve a little and as long as reviews are decent I will certainly try another book by J Robert Kennedy, as with all things creative, you can't win them all ... but clearly this author has much talent!

WAY too long of a prologue

The author spends an inordinate amount of time setting the “scene “. Once the actual Story begins it was ok
Definitely not as good as the first one

Excellent!

The writing and narration are top notch. It kind of reminds the reader of recent events minus the lethality of the virus.

Ideal for ages 10 to 14

I believe the right age group will love this. For me a bit too cheesy.

Almost prophetic!

Great listen. Worth the time. Main character is not always the main focus of the book & that's a good thing. Supporting characters play big roles!
