Global Destruction Introduced by a Simple Microbe
The genetically engineered bacterium was only supposed to clean up oil spills in the Gulf of Mexico. But suddenly, America's infrastructure and economy disintegrates! Machines grind to a halt. Roads crumble. Technology clicks off. Pipes burst. Human growth halts as bacterial growth soars.
Before anyone can get a handle on the disaster, the scientist responsible is kidnapped, imprisoned, and interrogated on suspicion of terrorism conspiracy by Federal police intelligence agents, and barely escapes alive--thanks to the disaster itself.
Can Dr. D. trust the virile Texan who finds her and tends her injuries? Can they fight their way across a volatile, changing landscape to reach the self-sufficient, secure, off-grid science haven, where the community may help cure the contagion? And will they even believe the story of how it started?
This adventure story's diverse characters view the cataclysm from a sweeping array of focus. The contagion builds rapidly from the first minor, puzzling changes to a colossal, fast-paced thriller of a story. Every person brings their own unique strengths to bear in surviving this massive environmental disaster, and some do not survive.
The accurate science underpinning the story puts it firmly in the hard-science-fiction world. The prescient tale of a bacterium that spreads through transmission from technology to hand and hand to technology
This 2016 debut novel by Peri Dwyer Worrell, the novel Machine Sickness builds and expands on such classic science fiction thrillers as Michael Crichton's Andromeda Strain, while packing a modern, post-apocalyptic, dystopian punch.
