The Lazarus Protocol
Dr. Elias Thorne, a brilliant but disgraced virologist, is framed for the deadliest terrorist attack in history. The "Lazarus" virus—his life's work, stolen and weaponized by his shadowy ex-mentor—has been unleashed on Chicago.
The world has 48 hours until the virus mutates, rendering any cure useless.
Hunted by the very government he once served, Elias is captured by Agent Kiera Vance, a relentless DHS operator driven by cold rage. Her family is infected. She believes Elias is the monster.
But when a team of high-tech corporate mercenaries ambushes their transport, Elias and Kiera are forced into a desperate, unwilling alliance. Chained together, they must navigate the city's war-torn, subterranean tunnels, hunted by both the government and the true conspirators—Aegis Dynamics.
With the clock ticking down and a lethal K9 robot on their trail, a wounded scientist and a compromised federal agent must fight to reach Elias's secret lab. One is fighting for redemption, the other for revenge. Both are fighting for a world that is 48 hours from annihilation.
