The Bootstrap Virus: Bloodlust, Betrayal, and a Killer That Won't Die

Rate this book
The killer will become the next victim…

Within a vibrant West Virginia city, a synthetic bloodborne contagion, unfettered by the constraints of time and space, warps love into betrayal and life into a dance with death. With each deadly encounter, it learns and evolves, and to ensure its survival, it compels the next victim to drink the blood of its predecessor.

As the local police pursue what they believe to be ritualistic murders, an organization known as the Institute emerges. Armed with an advanced AI named Vasilisa, they calmly observe and analyze the unfolding chaos. Yet, the elusive truth remains beyond the reach of all involved.

In this nightmare, where shadows whisper of the supernatural, one woman will emerge as the linchpin. Margo Kozlowski, a soldier with a haunted past and a conscience drowning in guilt, remains blissfully unaware. As hidden forces entangle her, Margo becomes an unwitting player in a dark drama that could unravel the fabric of reality. The looming Can she escape the clutches of her destiny before it consumes her and everything she holds dear? The answers lie in the heart of the contagion, where love and betrayal intertwine, and the lines between the living and the beyond blur into despair.
