The Divine Affliction (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780982844199)

When Derrick Daniels, Justice Department attorney, reluctantly investigates the possibility that rogue nations are developing deadly diseases as a terrorist weapon against the United States, assassins and inexplicable forces threaten his existence and the destiny of humanity.

Every living thing is at risk when ancient law collides with contemporary villainy.

Prions-the cause of mad cow disease and the human counterpart Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease-become a biological weapon, as illicit drugs coupled with revenge from wars of the past conspire to destroy America from within.

Is societal violence random, is it related to one special device, or is there a combination of plots acting to end the idyllic life that once defined the American way? Is our condition born of the acts of enemies or the evolution of our behaviors?
