Vector

in James Abel's Vector, the fourth installment in the Joe Rush bio-thriller series, this captivating novel would leave you at the edge of your seat for a new kind of terror. It all started for Joe Rush, when he was on a rescue mission to find his friend Eddie in Brazil. He would have to go through other people to find him and bring him home. Meanwhile, Secretary Kyle Utley from the White House meets with a stranger who promised threats to the USA, if they didn't deliver the ransom money. When it didn't happen as planned, Tom Fargo, an American who turned jihadist terrorist, plans to unleash a new weapon of bio-terror for destruction: generic modified mosquitoes that carry a new kind of malaria. And the first attack happened in New York City. When Joe learns about this new federal emergency, he heads home with Eddie and a new ally, Izabel Santo from Brazil. From there, they learn about this new disease and track down the origins as new attacks hits in other states. Joe and his team tries to connect the dots on this personal attack and races against time to stop another outbreak happens in Atlanta before it's too late.

This was a new kind of thriller that's never been done before. I loved the vast array of settings from Brazil to New York City and then to Nashville for a variety of locations. I cared for Joe and how he searched for Eddie and then dealt with this blow of this new form of disease. I do think Aya is a hoot and a great secondary character. I've found Tom Fargo a bit despicable for his menacing actions. This would take you on a thrill ride from start to finish with non-stop action and plenty of drama, lots of suspense and hints of mystery.
