Description
When antiques picker Wally Winchester buys a cache of computers from the estate of a Nobel laureate, he is wholly unprepared for the events following in the wake of his purchase: a beautiful FDA chemist (this is fiction after all) in search of a deadly pathogen, a scandal bred in Russia, a painting with the kind of checkered provenance that only Wally would encounter, and a plundering and ravaging community – alas, Wally’s home, Camano Island – depicted with shocking realism after “the thin veneer of civilization” is peeled away by an out-of-control epidemic.
