Outbreak
by Davis Bunn
| -From Goodreads- The waters off the West African coast are a menacing red, full of algae thick enough to stand on in places. In nearby villages, mysterious deaths start to occur--and the panic mounts. But before an alarm can be sounded, the sea currents shift, the algae vanishes, and the deaths stop. Everyone is relieved when things return to normal, and local government officials are happy to sweep the publicity nightmare under a rug. An American biological researcher, Avery Madison, is dispatched by his employer to piece together exactly what happened, having long feared an ecological disaster just like this could occur. He's had little evidence to go on before now, and what he finds in West Africa is rapidly disappearing. But Avery knows the danger hasn't disappeared--it has just moved on. When parts of the Caribbean start turning a familiar red right before hurricane season kicks into high gear, the implications are clear. If Avery and his colleagues can't convince the world of what's about to happen, toxic destruction could be loosed on American soil. Will their efforts prove too late? ISBN-13: 9780764217920 Can they find the truth before it's too late...? |  This Book received a 4.5 Bark rating.

Just when you think you've gotten Davis Bunn pegged, he surprises you with something different. While Outbreak features his trademark style of writing it still brings something new to the table. From the dramatic red and white cover, on the version I read, to the last page this was one suspenseful read. One that I found difficult to put down and I finished it in near record time.
The premise of the powers that be manipulating and covering up a catastrophe of global proportions is something that sounds suspiciously like it could be ripped from today's world headlines. That very fact added a great deal to the suspense and drama of the tale.
Outbreak is edgy and edge-of-your-seat reading from one of Christian fiction's top authors. It makes you question what IS and what's real. So, if you are into suspense with touches of thriller and a dash of medical fiction, Davis Bunn's gripping semi-recent release just might be up your alley.
Tell Tale Book Reviews gives Outbreak by Davis Bunn a 4.5 Bark rating.
