About this item

USA Today bestselling author Leonard Goldberg continues his pulse-pounding medical thriller series with Plague Ship When a mysterious and potentially fatal illness strikes a luxury Caribbean cruise, every passenger is at risk -- including Dr. David Ballineau, his young daughter, and his girlfriend, nurse Carolyn Ross. With a shortage of medical help and supplies, David and Carolyn struggle to treat and contain a deadly, highly contagious form of bird flu. Under quarantine, they are forbidden from docking -- provoking panicked and desperate passengers to launch a mutiny and steer the ship toward land. If David cant find a way to neutralize the virus or take control of the ship, a worldwide pandemic could erupt. Praise:"[An] all-too-plausible medical scenario that will send chills up the spine." -- Kirkus Reviews
