About the Book

From flooded refugee camps in Thailand to posh gourmet restaurants in Maryland; from corporate boardrooms to cholera camps in Bengal; from US Naval bases to Maya ruins in the jungles of Central America; Vampire Chimeras carries you along on its tense roller coaster plot. How will Dr. Diana Rigsby, a seasoned medical researcher and physician, stop a rampaging hemorrhagic fever threatening the lives of those she loves....especially if it arose out of something she may have created. Not just a medical thriller, Vampire Chimeras is filled with cutting edge science, backing plausible plot twists, spun out as a multiply layered moral play, providing lots of points of debate. It's filled with metaphors forcing the reader to ask, who/what are the real Vampires? The Chimeras? PG13 Rated FINALIST at Bookbzz.com 2015 Prize Writer Competition! FEATURED on podcast "Listen Inside" from Readers In The Know - cool narration from Brit Simon Denman. Exerpts of comments from the Beta Readers: "I just finished reading it and absolutely loved it! I though the plot was very gripping -- there's a little bit of everything: action, romance, science, conspiracy, tragedy... Your main character is very relatable," - a recent college grad, analyst "Wow. The cover is fantastic!!!" - a retiree "A page-turning thriller delineating how Man's avariciousness turned a tiny virus to a covetous vampire; and nature going hand in hand with science giving a big shot to the mother mosquito " - a biotech researcher "Best of all, it has this great pickup line for the Navy crowd!" - an Annapolis dude "Well, you got me hooked. I read your book all in one sitting. The overall plot and the science behind it are great. I really like how you incorporated the quotes from Anne Rice and the songs." - a physician "I loved the science and the military influences." - a research nurse "As I was reading it, I thought to myself, 'this would make a great screenplay'." - a physician "Excellent theme and narrative." - a physician "Just finished reading the VC ebook in one sitting. It was quite dramatic, but I enjoyed the read! The science at the beginning ties into the continuing drama of the disease very well." - a chemist "Love the novel! I liked the interplay of the restaurant menu as well as the use of email and skype technologies for parts of the dialogue." - a physician "It is carefully written, and those who read it will learn all that you are trying to teach." - a science librarian "The story line and characters are very interesting, and the jokes are good." - a military officer "I read it and it's brilliant. I find no problems with the love scenes and the humor makes me laugh. You've got a winner on your hands!" - a science fiction writer "Just finished your novel.....Congratulations on creating and getting it published. Fantastic...I want more...!" - a Thai businessman "I liked it. I thought that the story line was interesting..." - retired rocket scientist
