The Amazon rain forest spawns a new terror that will bring the world to its knees in this new Joe Rush biothriller....

Joe Rush is at an Amazon gold rush to study new forms of malaria when his best friend and partner, Eddie Nakamura, disappears. Learning that many of the sick miners have also vanished, Rush begins a search for Eddie that takes him into the heart of darkness - where he must battle for his life and where he discovers a secret that may change the world.

Thousands of miles away, floods of sick people are starting to appear in US hospitals. When the White House admits that it has received terrorist threats, cities across the Northeast begin to shut down. Rush and his team must journey from one of the most remote spots on Earth to one of the busiest as the clock ticks toward a kind of annihilation not thought possible. They have even less time than they think to solve the mystery, for the danger - as bad as it is - is about to get even worse.

Selected the first book of this series to listen to Ray Porter. Ended up binging on the whole series. Wish there were more.

I stopped what I was doing Tuesday morning when the 4th Joe Rush novel was released on Audible. I loved the first three novels.
James Abel is actually Joe Reiss and has written over 20 novels. I don't know why he chose to change his name for the Joe Rush novels, but the writing in these novels show that he's not new to the game.
Vector, as well as the rest of the Joe Rush novels, is smart and surprising and has fun twists that keep you interested until the last word.
Joe Rush is a reluctant hero who is forever getting in trouble with the establishment. He knows and speaks of his limits. He's just flawed enough to make him real and interesting and likable.
The bad guy in the story was believable and easy to hate. All of the character development was great.
The story and pace of action was fun. The ending drove right up to the last minutes of the book. I loved the ending.
Ray Porter as a narrator is so talented. I know these stories are better with him vs reading them as a traditional book.
I highly recommend Vector and all of the Joe Rush Novels.

Great Story as Always and Narration Perfection

Outstanding performance by the narrator and story by the author. Surprised often and never knowing what is going to happen next. Looking forward to the next book in the continuing adventures of Dr. Joe Rush.

Outstanding plot and drama

Another great Joe Rush installment. I hope there's more. I actually didn't see where this one was going until just at the end so that's a big score for the author.

Great

I love the stories, I love the characters. I love the relationships. I REALLY REALLY love listening to Ray Porter narrate to me. Maybe mostly that. I'm already looking forward to the next book.

I really enjoy Joe Rush

This Joe Rush book was good but not as good as his last two books. If you have a free credit and you want to try it go ahead if not you'd be fine either way.

Good but not great
