This thriller's twists and turns will remind you of the weekly emotional rollercoaster of our favorite doctor drama." _______________________________________________ IN BEGINNINGS, book one of The Pandemic Series, a deadly plague virus has been introduced across the glove by ISIS terrorists who are waging the mother of all wars - The Final Jihad.

"This story had me up all night to finish it. I couldn't put it down!" After crisscrossing the planet in search of clues, Mac and Hunter realize that this infectious disease is like no other, and with the jihadists implementing the virus as a tool of bioterror, there is not just one Patient Zero, but thousands.

"Masterful character development. Akart has become expert at writing a stay-up-all-night thriller!" Can a cure be found?
