Extinction

About this book

The year is 2027. Climate upheavals and pollution have reached crisis proportions. People cover their houses with plastic domes and wear masks to go outside. Despite Homeland Security harassment, Harvard toxicologist Helen Michaelson works to stem the extinctions that are becoming routine. As the crisis deepens, she learns about and must decide whether to join or oppose a conspiracy among colleagues to depopulate the world with a deadly pathogen to save what's left of nature.
