This is my first read with this author and I was greatly suprised.
The story centers around 3 main characters. Two were married at one time and now
are forced to work together to find the man the 3rd character is hunting down.
No sappy romance, very detailed information on past plaques and so interesting I couldn't put it down.

If you like suspense, this one is it.

I am a fan of Tim Downs or Bugman books. This only has a cameo of the bugman but has another endearing character fully worth reading.
I only have one criticism of the book. It was a real slow starter. I think it took me a good 150 pages before it grabbed me. From there on it was a good read. I found the characters and lessons learned to be well worth the read.

Plague Maker holds its own next to Crichton or Clancy. A suspense thriller set in current time, New York City...4th of July. Will the beginning of the fireworks show mark the beginning of the end? Bioterrorism with a twist...and a definitely surprise ending. A fresh story, based on actual happenings.

What a wild ride that has actual history behind it in the producing of a biological weapon. Three main characters take you for a close look at the motives behind each one and how they all intersect together.
This is a keep reading page turner of a book. Don't make plans.

Loved this book. It was well-researched, well-written and a great read. I'm definitely going to be looking for other books by this author.

Really good! A chilling read, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Downs does a great job (as usual) with the plot, characters and dialogue.

This was a wonderful book... I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone that asked about it... It had a thrilling plot and the characters were so well developed that you began to feel like you knew them... This book was a page turner and keep me up late into ungodly hours of the night... definately a wonderful read!
