Look for this book in August because 12 21 will have you on the edge of your seat !
Reading thrillers like 12 21 can keep you up at night. It isn't the heart pounding adventure or the characters miss with near death experiences but the simple fact that this type of thriller could happen. The realization that a horrific virus is just out there in some ancient ruin waiting to be unleashed upon the world makes my skin crawl. In the same vein as Steve Berry, James Rollins and other super thrillers, 12 21 involves good people and bad involved in a medical crisis that they are powerless to control without knowing where the disease came from and finding or understanding an ancient relic so they can save the world. It all goes back to the Mayan calendar that predicts the end of the world on 12 21 12 and a Mayan relic that finds its way to a researcher at the Getty Museum and a deadly virus that starts claiming lives in Los Angeles. Prions are tiny proteins that are responsible for deadly outbreaks like Mad Cow Disease and this is what pulls in specialist Gabe Stanton to the new outbreak in Los Angeles. Can they control the disease, find an antidote and save the world? You will not want to put this one down before finishing the last page breathless and more than a bit worried what might happen this coming end of the year.
