About this listen

Exploding from a lab, a bioengineered microbe devours civilization Dr. Davis’s painstaking work finally produced a GMO bacterium that can miraculously clean up oil spills. With the help of her trusted assistant and Chinese lab cultures, she’s landed an industry job that will get them both out of their tedious academic backwater. But when the microbe moves from oil spills on the Gulf beaches to penetrating plastic, gasoline, and asphalt, nothing can stop its spread. When she tries to find out who or what has corrupted the bacteria’s DNA, she’s arrested and accused of deliberately plotting the pandemic infecting the world’s machines. Handcuffed, drugged, interrogated, and beaten, she escapes with the help of a blue-collar Texan. But before they can begin the search for a cause and a cure, her brilliant, estranged, daughter reappears in her life.

Meanwhile, Amit is the researcher emeritus who did the seminal work in this field of genetic manipulation. He immediately grasps the scope of the catastrophe and knows there’s only one safe place to isolate. He doesn’t know that the creator of the disaster is headed there too! Navigating treacherous, crumbling roads and equally treacherous emotional curves, can they attain a remedy for the pandemic?
