Joe Ledger, ex-cop and now special forces killer, must lead his elite team against a criminal mastermind who threatens to unleash a super plague that could wipe out humanity.
After dealing with zombies and genetically-modified monsters, Joe Ledger was hoping for a break. But in the world in which he lives, evil is only just around the corner. His job is to protect the world from maniacs, maniacs who often have resources and support that his team doesn't. The enemy also has a brutal willingness to kill - and that is one thing Joe doesn't have a problem with ...
Frenetic pacing, thrill-a-minute adventure, breath-taking and realistic (author is a seventh Dan Karate black belt) violence. Perfect for the male readership.

Reviews
Heated, violent and furious. - Peter Straub'King of Plagues is unrelentingly fast-paced, the combat scenes brutal and bone-crunchingly authentic. Ledger is brash and cocky but he has just enough insecurity to keep you rooting for him as he saves the world once again.' - The Financial Times
