Chain of Events

Fredrik T. Olsson

Discover the global virus thriller you HAVE to read . . .

'Chain of Events has a conceit at its heart that is so simple and clever I wish I'd thought of it. Fast and relentless, all shot through with a little bloody pandemic and code cracking . . . boy are you ever going to love this book' --- Simon Toyne

DAY ONE: KIDNAP
'We've been looking for you,' they tell William Sandberg when they abduct him. Imprisoned at a secret location, this broken genius can only win his freedom by completing an impossible task.

DAY TWO: OUTBREAK
Out on the streets, people begin to die horrible, gruesome deaths. Every moment that William fails to complete his task, more will perish.

DAY THREE: CHAOS
The search is on to rescue William as catastrophe after catastrophe kills thousands. But soon William realises the answer to the puzzle might be the most terrifying secret of all.

'Secrets are unveiled with a masterful sense of pace . . . Olsson has the page-turning power of Michael Crichton'
The Sun

'A colourful blockbuster thriller couched in distinctly cinematic terms'
The Independent
