Harlin Banks just made a fatal mistake: He told a billion-dollar pharmaceutical giant No.
At 5:00 PM, the settlement offer expired. At 5:01 PM, the Sterilization Protocol began.
It starts with his bank accounts freezing. Then, his brand-new Mercedes locks its doors, cuts the brakes, and accelerates into oncoming traffic. Harlin Banks isn't just being sued; he is being erased.
Aethelgard Pharmaceuticals is launching Vitalex, a miracle drug poised to revolutionize medicine and generate trillions in profit. But in the poverty-stricken parishes of the Mississippi Delta, the miracle is leaving a trail of bodies. Twelve people are dead, their hearts stopped cold by a silent dose the company is desperate to hide.
Stripped of his assets, his license, and his home, Harlin is forced underground. With only his team-Sam Rourke, a hacker with a grudge, and Rosco Wheeler, a con man with a conscience-Harlin must run a gauntlet that leads from the corporate glass towers of Atlanta to the terrified silence of the Atchafalaya swamp.
They are hunting for a ghost: the one scientist who escaped the purge with the deadly data that proves Aethelgard is selling poison.
But the company knows they are coming. And they haven't just hired lawyers to stop them-they've sent a death squad.
From the author of The Saturday Gods comes a pulse-pounding legal technothriller about the price of truth in a world where everything-even your heartbeat-can be hacked.
