About the Book

Chicago cop turned private investigator Michael Kelly is racing to save his city from a deadly new foe: a biological weapon unleashed underground. When a lightbulb falls in a subway tunnel, it releases a pathogen that could kill millions. While the mayor postures, people begin to die, especially on the city's grim West Side. Hospitals become morgues. L trains are converted into rolling hearses. Finally, the government acts, sealing off entire sections of the city--but are they keeping people out or in? Meanwhile, Michael Kelly's hunt for the people who poisoned his city takes him into the tangled underworld of Chicago's West Side gangs and the even more frightening world of black biology--an elite discipline emerging from the nation's premier labs, where scientists play God and will stop at nothing to preserve their secrecy. It's a brave new world . . . and the most audacious page-turner yet from an emerging modern master.

Review :
"Michael Harvey should be read by all."--John Grisham Praise for Michael Harvey's "We All Fall Down" "Harvey shows how a thrilled focused on bioterrorism should be done in his outstanding fourth novel. . . . The complexity of the plot never overwhelms the narrative flow in this utterly persuasive view of a present-day apocalyptic nightmare." --"Publishers Weekly "(starred review) Praise for Michael Harvey's "The Third Rail" " " "Jolting. . . . Harvey's feel for Chicago ramps up the fast-paced, grimly realistic action." --Marilyn Stasio, " The New York Times Book Review" "Somebody needs to notify the authorities, because Michael Harvey is bound to create havoc and mayhem with his new thriller. . . . Harvey does for the Windy City what Michael Connelly did for Los Angeles: He commandeers it, warts and all, and wrangles it into his fiction." -- Julia Keller, "Chicago Tribune" "[A] knockout thriller. . . . Harvey dispenses the pressure plays, cruel surprises and heartbreaking setbacks of his plot with crack timing, never allowing the reader a moment to unfasten his seat belt. And all the while Harvey renders [P. I. Michael]Kelly's Chicago in crisp, tough and ironic prose." --Gerald Bartell, "The Washington Post Book World" "The suspense hums and the dialogue is truthfully tough, but it's the writing that elevates Harvey to the top of the PI genre. He's the best Chicago novelist . . . since Nelson Algren." --Les Roberts, Cleveland" Plain Dealer" "Michael Harvey should be read by all." --John Grisham "A major new voice." --Michael Connelly "[A] stellar third novel. . . . Harvey stakes a persuasive claim as the preeminent contemporary voice of Chicago noir." --"Publishers Weekly" (starred review) "[A] book-length jolt of pure adrenaline." --"Kirkus" "The expert use of Chicago politics that distinguished Harvey's previous novel, "The Fifth Floor, " is much in evidence here as well. . . . [T]he action is nonstop, H
