About the Book
When a Memorial Day celebration in three quiet towns turns deadly, panic spreads faster than the unknown illness itself.
What begins as a medical mystery quickly escalates into a global crisis.
Government agent Imelda Burke and private investigator Alex West are called in to uncover the truth, but what they discover is far more terrifying than a natural outbreak. This is no accident.
This is a calculated act of bioterrorism.
Behind it all is VECTOR, a brilliant and pathological mastermind orchestrating a deadly game of cat and mouse. With millions of lives at stake and time running out, Imelda and Alex must track a shadowy enemy across the globe before the next attack is unleashed.
As governments scramble and fear grips the world, one question remains:
Can they stop a weapon more devastating than any nuclear threat?
VECTOR is a gripping medical thriller packed with suspense, global conspiracy, and relentless action, perfect for fans of pandemic thrillers and high-stakes suspense novels.
