Summary

Modern-day Rome: Two American archaeologists suddenly die in an underground passageway in the Roman Forum leading to the buried rooms of Emperor Nero's Golden Palace. The Italian authorities conclude the deaths were caused by a devastating and highly contagious virus. Tom Stewart, an NYU forensic archaeologist who was present when the deaths occurred, becomes entangled in the race to find the supply of the virus - a race involving many powerful players desperately seeking the deadly contagion. Stewart must find and destroy the virus before others harness its sinister power.

The Vatican, foreign groups, the world's largest genetic seed manufacturer - all have their reasons, and none will stop until they succeed, no matter the cost or risk to millions of people if the virus escapes and causes a pandemic.

Good tale but hugely overwritten & wrong narrator

The story is good. However, it's overwritten and too lengthy. The narrator has a sleepy voice and tone, and would be more suited to reading meditation apps.

A really good concept but poorly executed

This started out good but became too contrived, convenient and coincidental more and more to make the story work. Suddenly there was a secret passage to use as an escape route. Then having used it only once out hero was able to use it again effortlessly to find his way back into the lair of the ever so evil villain. There more and more these contrivances required to help the plot along, which all too suddenly beçame believable to unbelievable.

GOOD IDEA FOR A STORY - BAD STORY

The end result of what could have been a good story, ended up as a long car/plane chase. If you enjoy endless baddies nearly getting the goodie, buy the audio book. Even the narrator, whose name appears to be Italian, pronounces Fiat as Fee Art!!! The author should also know that the star of the show, the virus, should have more info in general about viruses. By the way, no virus kills in seconds of contact. There is no tension in this so-called thriller. Bad Germans, dodgy Vatican employees, etc., but we have a beautiful heroine. Hopefully she doesn't die. I'm not listening any further to find out. Still have two hours to go but life's too short to carry on.
