Description

Across America a strange illness is transforming ordinary people into raving, weird murderers who cause intense disasters on visitors, themselves, and even their very own families. Operating underneath the shroud of secrecy, the country is crisscrossed by CIA operative Dew Phillips attempting in vain to fully capture a live target. With just rotting corpses for hints, CDC epidemiologist Margaret Montoya contests to investigate the technology behind this lethal contagion. She finds these murders all have one part of common – they’ve been polluted by a bioengineered parasite, formed by a complexity far beyond the limitations of recognized science.Meanwhile Perry Dawsey – a hulking former soccer superstar today reconciled alive as a cubicle-bound table jockey – awakens one day to locate many mystical welts developing on his physique.
