Terror Within

A bold satire mixed with a good bit of irony, this wise, gritty and wonderfully entertaining debut marks a savvy new voice in science fiction literature. When it comes to Terror Within, by Roger Marshall, a case of accidental terrorism has the American government on high alert, not to mention the lives of a group of affable and unsuspecting strangers on the brink of being compromised-forever.

Nate, Sandra, Harland, Rita, and Gabe barely know each other. With strange links to an article Gabe is researching on retirement planning, the fractious group becomes enmeshed in an act of bio-terrorism that will have them on the run from their own government and forced to seek asylum in Argentina. Why would the government chase a group of complete strangers? Together, they unwittingly possess information about Project M.I.X., a top-secret program rooted in the history of the Marshall Islands-information that will alter the future of mankind.
