A Dr. Mallory Hayes Medical Thriller
Thriller, Medical Thriller
Date Published: January 2023
In the wake of a natural disaster, a new pandemic is unleashed…
Dr. Mallory Hayes, a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
medical investigator, is a committed physician and researcher quietly
battling height and air-flight anxiety. When a tsunami devastates the
coast of Southern California, the Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) establishes a camp to house the tens of thousands of people
displaced by the disaster, and the Army is brought in to provide medical
services.
Mallory is dispatched to the camp by the CDC to prevent the potential
spread of disease from contaminated water. What she discovers is far worse
than anything she could have imagined—an accelerated HIV-like virus,
and a common, everyday microbe, are proving to be extremely deadly.
Particles in the Air is a shockingly realistic tale only an immunologist
could write—a tense, high-concept thriller meant to appeal to fans
of A.G Riddle, Michael Crichton, Terry Hayes, Richard Preston, and
others.
