Ok, so I read this book in 2 days. It was fantastic. The subject matter couldn’t have been more up my alley – crime drama / sisterly love / another woman / corruption.

I’ve read a bunch of Ebola books, and there is no shortage of Ebola details in this book. One warning though – it’s long. It took me a while to read, and I had to take it out of the library multiple times. David Quamen did years […]
