In Darwin's Radio— a cross between the chilling scientific credibility of Michael Crichton and the cutting-edge technology of William Gibson— a terrifying disease forces scientists to race against time to save civilization— if it is not too late. The discovery of concealed remains in a mass grave in Russia forces top scientists to question everything they believed about human origins. For molecular biologist Kaye Lang and "virus hunter" Christopher Dicken, it means pursuing a mysterious flu-like disease that has been dormant for millions of years— and is now coming back to life.
