Synopsis

He finally learned how to talk to animals. Now they have to help him save humanity.

Dr. Jack Dolittle, MD DVM, is on the cutting edge of veterinary psychiatry. Through his invention of the NeuroCrown—a neurophasic scanner that translates animal brain waves into human language—he can finally communicate with his patients. But his groundbreaking research catches the attention of the US Air Force and corporate billionaires, leading to a forced recruitment at Groom Lake, famously known as Area 51.

What starts as an involuntary consulting gig quickly spirals into a biological nightmare. A corporate colleague conducting illicit genomic research accidentally releases sRlv-51, a synthetic rabies-like virus, into the wild via a colony of infected bats. The highly contagious pathogen turns its hosts into violently enraged, biting monsters.

When the virus reaches Las Vegas on Halloween weekend, the city erupts into chaos. With local governments paralyzed by bureaucratic AI and corporate cover-ups, Jack realizes he is the only one who can stop a full-blown pandemic. Accompanied by Spooky, a feral black cat, and Chichi, a lab-rescued Barbary macaque, Jack must hijack an automated truck loaded with experimental vaccines, dodge automated security drones, and fight his way into the Sunrise Hospital ICU.

Jack Dolittle, DVM is a fast-paced, cyberpunk-infused medical thriller that proves sometimes the most human souls in the room walk on four legs.

What to expect:

• A Sci-Fi Twist on a Classic: A modern, high-tech reimagining of Dr. Dolittle featuring advanced neurotechnology and AI.

• Unique Animal Companions: Features a memorable cast of cybernetically enhanced animals, including a fiercely loyal cat named Spooky and an agile monkey named Chichi.

• High-Stakes Medical Thriller: A race against time to cure a zombie-like viral outbreak before it destroys Las Vegas.
