The Undrowned - Toby Vieira

London: the threat of another pandemic looms. And Sebastian, a journalist searching for his colleagues who have disappeared on a mission in West Africa, may hold the secret to it all. After surviving a life-threatening encounter with the new disease, Sebastian''s troubles get worse. As he fights to discover what''s happened to his friends, he realises that there are powerful forces pursuing him: a posse of fake nurses want his blood - and the police want to find him guilty of murder. And when he travels back to Africa to find out what has happened to his friends, he is forced to confront a presence yet more terrifying: the mythical, malevolent warlord who haunts the imagination of everyone who encounters him -KhaiManni. For fans of Graham Greene and John Le Carre, THE UNDROWNED is a story of courage, mystery and paranoia in a world that may be spinning completely out of control.
