I was totally fascinated by the Hot Zone. Started reading everything I could
on ebola...seems half the nation did as well with all the similar type boooks
and movies that followed. Now, whenever I see the city of Reston mentioned, I
kind of get the chills. I also washed my hands a lot more after reading those
kinds of books
My husband spotted Level 4 and he's now reading it so I had to switch over
to another thriller . Started Michael Palmer's "Critical Judgment"...lady
doctor moves to small town hospital..big factory which runs the town may be
causing industrial pollution...people mysteriously dying..I'm sticking with
it but seems like quite a few other medical thrillers I've read in the past
few years. Hope something different occurs to make this a bit more original.
