SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE FROM NETFLIX AND ACADEMY AWARD-WINNING DIRECTOR KATHRYN BIGELOW

“Fantastic story, a real page-turner. Impossible to put down.” – Stephen King

From the author of Cold Storage comes a riveting, eerily plausible thriller, told with the menace and flair of Under the Dome or Project Hail Mary, in which a worldwide cataclysm plays out in the lives of one complicated Midwestern family.

In Aurora, Illinois, Aubrey Wheeler is just trying to get by after her semi-criminal ex-husband split, leaving behind his unruly teenage son.

Then the lights go out–not just in Aurora but across the globe. A solar storm has knocked out power almost everywhere. Suddenly, all problems are local, very local, and Aubrey must assume the mantle of fierce protector of her suburban neighborhood.

Across the country lives Aubrey’s estranged brother, Thom. A fantastically wealthy, neurotically over-prepared Silicon Valley CEO, he plans to ride out the crisis in a gilded desert bunker he built for maximum comfort and security.

But the complicated history between the siblings is far from over, and what feels like the end of the world is just the beginning of several long-overdue reckonings–which not everyone will survive . . .

Aurora is suspenseful storytelling–both large scale and small–at its finest.

“On every level, Cold Storage is pure, unadulterated entertainment.”–Douglas Preston, The New York Times

For readers of Andy Weir and Noah Hawley comes an astonishing debut by the screenwriter of Jurassic Park: a wild and terrifying adventure about three strangers who must work together to contain a highly contagious, deadly organism

When Pentagon bioterror operative Roberto Diaz was sent to investigate a suspected biochemical attack, he found something far worse: a highly mutative organism capable of extinction-level destruction. He contained it and buried it in cold storage deep beneath a little-used military repository.

Now, after decades of festering in a forgotten sub-basement, the specimen has found its way out and is on a lethal feeding frenzy. Only Diaz knows how to stop it.

He races across the country to help two unwitting security guards–one an ex-con, the other a single mother. Over one harrowing night, the unlikely trio must figure out how to quarantine this horror again. All they have is luck, fearlessness, and a mordant sense of humor. Will that be enough to save all of humanity?

Hace treinta y dos anos, Roberto Diaz, que forma parte de un equipo elite y secreto del Pentagono, viajo al desierto australiano para investigar un posible ataque bioquimico. Lo que encontro fue mucho peor: un organismo altamente mutante, similar a una planta, capaz de causar epidemias destructivas. Se las arreglo para contenerlo, enterrandolo en una camara de almacenamiento en el fondo de una instalacion gubernamental fuertemente armada. Sin embargo, esa instalacion del gobierno se cerro y se vendida a una compania que renta espacios para almacenamiento.

Al no tener supervision, el organismo encuentra su salida y esta mutando mas rapido que nunca. A Diaz se le pide volver de su retiro para ayudar a dos inusuales guardias de seguridad: uno es un exconvicto, la otra una madre soltera, ambos se esfuerzan por preservas sus vidas.

Diaz sabe demasiado bien lo que esta en juego; los otros dos estan aprendiendo sobre la marcha, enfrentando los efectos de esta catastrofe mientras pasan por ella. El objetivo sigue siendo simple: poner en cuarentena este horror una vez mas y salvar a toda la humanidad. Cold Storage es un libro de suspenso, unico y placentero, con una accion que se mueve rapidamente, un agudo sentido del humor y una brillante exhibicion de historias.
