Synopsis

Best selling author Jason Oakley’s Amazon vacation turns to a nightmare when his buddy smuggles a sacred gold medallion artifact out of the jungle. The medallion is both the cause of a worldwide pandemic and the only possible hope for a life saving vaccine. Whoever owns the cursed medallion has an upper hand at controlling the outcome of the virus and the planet itself. Time is of the essence, and it's running out for Jason. Surviving the virus forces strangers to help each other navigate the reoccurring stages of the never ending disease. It would be enough for Jason just to endure the effects of the virus, but powerful people are also chasing him. The phoenix of change arises out of the ashes of our collapsing civilization, giving hope for a brighter future.

À propos de l'auteur

Born in San Francisco in 1948, Nik C. Colyer lived his first twenty-three years in the East Bay city of Hayward. In 1974, Colyer moved to Nevada City in the Sierra Nevada Mountains where he spent his first snowbound winter, without electricity or television, devouring fiction classics such as Steinbeck's “Of Mice and Men”, Ken Kesey's “One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest”, Herbert's “Dune” and hundreds more. Inspired by such greats, he revisited a childhood longing, picked up a pen, and the seeds of a writing career emerged. It took another six years before he started his first novel, "Hunters Field" and twelve years to complete that prodigious project. Once he felt the success of completion, he dedicated more of his life as a novelist. Colyer gets up every morning at 4 a.m. to write. Using that early morning method, his following sixteen novels took less than a year each to complete. His philosophy is simple; "If I write a single page a day, in less than a year I have a finished manuscript." To date, Nik Colyer has completed sixteen novel manuscripts, a book of poetry and two screen plays.
