In the bestselling tradition of Richard Preston’s
now-classic medical thriller The Hot Zone and
reminiscent of the blockbuster films Outbreak and
Contagion, a fast-paced, page-turning thriller set in
India about a deadly disease and the heroic efforts to
contain the plague before it’s too late…
In the
courtyard of a Hindu temple in Switzerland, a woman
collapses in the arms of a visiting Indian journalist, her
body reduced to a puddle of blood. Never before has anyone
seen anything like this. Three months later, all over
Mumbai, men, women and children are ravaged by a disease
that begins with initially mild symptoms—that swiftly
progress until an ultimately gruesome death. Who will it hit
next? And where did it come from?
As the rogue
microbe wreaks its bloody havoc—striking rich and poor,
young and old—chaos ensues. Thousands try to flee the city,
including the most powerful man in the country. Can this
deadly plague be stopped? After all, all that stands between
the city and apocalypse is a ragged team of doctors, civil
servants, and scientists. But their intervention may be too
little, too late.
Suspenseful and gripping from the
first page to the last, Bombay Fever is a
meticulously researched novel—too plausible to ignore and
too chilling to put down—from one of India’s most talented
writers.
