Book Club Meeting - "The Cobra Event" (public event)

Join the Social Wave Book Club for a thriller of a ride with The Cobra Event by Richard Preston. It's sure to keep you turning the pages, and it promises to be good fodder for discussion.

Melissa Kuzma Rockicki writes in Library Journal:
"Preston, author of the nonfiction bestseller, The Hot Zone, makes his fiction debut with this frightening tale of biological terrorism. When two completely unrelated people die horrifically in New York City, Alice Austen, a young doctor working for the Centers for Disease Control in Washington, D.C., is called in to investigate. What Austen finds in New York is like nothing she has ever seen... More victims follow, and soon she realizes that the mystery illness was caused by a man-made virus that spreads as easily as the common cold. Drawing on her findings, a team of government scientists is formed...their job is to find the person behind the virus and to stop him before he causes a worldwide outbreak."
