The Outbreak of a Monstrous Infection by Afshan Naheed Hashmi
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

A very timely book, in the world today with the advent of the super bug and antibiotic resistance of many other viruses. In this book, a horrific infectious disease is spreading across the globe and India gets hit especially hard. When a large group of people who attended the same wedding fall ill, the CBI steps in. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) of India requests help from the FBI in determining the origin of this disease. Is this biological warfare? An unlucky natural mutation of an existing virus or bacterial strand?
There were very many people involved and the ultimate reveal of just what happened, and how it unfolded according to plan was very satisfying to read. There was a bit much going on in terms of number of characters and keeping track of how each person was involved, which did not lead to this being a book to read if you are trying to have a light read. This is a clear mystery with a thrilling background.
