A DEADLY NEW PLAGUE—OR ANCIENT SHAMAN’S CURSE? A lost grave is discovered in the rainforest at Neah Bay, Washington. Is it a Native American burial, as some Makah Tribe members claim—or are these the remains of a Spanish colonist of the 1700s, a man accused of romantic involvement with a young Makah woman? And how did the man die? Before these questions can be answered, a deadly new disease strikes. Raving mania and a lethal fever spread among non-natives but inexplicably, the Makahs are spared. Soon the virus is threatening a worldwide epidemic of madness and death.
THE GREATEST MIND SINCE SHERLOCK HOLMES. Dr. Peyton McKean is called in by the Centers for Disease Control to identify the organism and find a cure. He confronts an old Makah shaman who seems to know more than he is willing to tell about the ebola-like virus. Old Gordon Steel claims this is the legendary Lost Souls Disease, created by Raven to punish the Spaniards, now unleashed on the modern world. As the death toll mounts, Peyton McKean races against time to create a vaccine to save humanity—and himself!
