International crime investigator, Mark Dobson, has been tasked by a US biomedical research company to investigate missing virus samples. With outbreaks of a fatal virus infection already cropping up in Asia and Africa the investigation quickly turns to find a virologist with extreme views on human population control who has created a new virus — 'Malthus A' — and a company planning to spread the virus in return for profits from ineffective treatments and counterfeit drugs.
But can Dobson persuade politicians? the World Health Organisation and international crime agencies to act in time to stop the spread?
The Malthus Pandemic is the first in the Asher & Asher series of international commercial crime investigations.
