Product Description
Product Description
When a top research institute is broken into and vandalized, the police believe that it is animal rights activists taking things a step too far. That is until they discover one of the institute's eminent scientists, Tim Devon, brutally murdered. Dr Steven Dunbar, working for the Sci-Med Inspectorate, an elite government agency, is sent to investigate. A few of the dead scientists' research animals have also gone missing and top level authorities are strangely obsessed with hunting down and killing the purportedly harmless animals. Was the attack on Devon and the institute really the work of extremist activists or is something far more sinister going on? Encountering excessive security measures enforced by unknown authorities, Dunbar realises that those who might hold the keys to the mystery are not prepared to help him, and those who have unleashed it will stop at nothing to fulfil their apocalyptic ambitions. Alone in a race against unspeakable tragedy, the ex-Special Forces medic must imagine the unthinkable - and all he knows is that, when the storm breaks, it'll already be too late...

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED,
By Ben Eastwood "the reader" (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Lazarus Strain (Paperback)
This is the third of the Ken McClure books that I have read in as many weeks and like the others I highly recommend it.
Unlike the others, it is quite confusing to start with and as usual there are a large number of misleading as well as helpful clues. I was completely led down the wrong track I am ashamed to say but thoroughly enjoyed being so misled!! The basic plot is related to a break in at a bio research institue (which is fascinating in itself as there was a breach at one of the UK ones just a couple of months ago as the previous reviewer has said), and whereby one of the leading scientists there gets murdered. From there on in, all hell breaks loose and the clues go off on all kinds of wild threads but the two or three twists near the end will totally shock you you will not foresee them no matter how hard you try to work it out. The plot in places stands on its head, what you think is obvious at first appears to be a red herring, then you realise it isn't then it becomes the obvious again and then the final twist.......... ( I won't spoil it for you)! Like the others, you won't be able to put it down.

Ken's done it again !!!!!!,
By
This review is from: The Lazarus Strain (Paperback)
Ken's done it again, he has written another BLOCKBUSTER of a book, that is very topical and very believable. Again Ken has mixed some current scientific facts with a pinch of imagination and come up with a great story that is gripping and fast moving. I highly recommend this book, and had recommended it to a good friend who works in the business of manufacturing bird flu vaccines, and he is now backtracking on Dr Dunbar's career so far.
