More DescriptionA genetic disease known as Brugada Syndrome kills its victims without warning or symptom. When the president of the United States falls victim to a weaponized strain of the disease, the Chess Team is assigned to protect CDC detective Sara Fogg as she journeys to the source of the new strain: the Annamite Mountains in Vietnam. Surrounded by Vietnam War era landmines, harsh terrain and more than one military force not happy about the return of American boots to the Ho Chi Minh trail, the fight for survival becomes a grueling battle in the jungle. Pursued by Vietnam's Special Forces unit, the team's flight through a maze of archaic ruins reveals an ancient secret...a primal secret that may stop the disease from sweeping the globe--even as it threatens both the mission and their lives. Praise for Pulse "Pulse contains all of the danger, treachery, and action a reader could wish for. Robinson's impressive talent is on full display in this one." -Steve Berry "Rocket-boosted action, brilliant speculation, and the recreation of a horror out of the mythologic past, all seamlessly blend into a rollercoaster ride of suspense and adventure." -James Rollins "The combination of mythology, technology, and high-octane action proves irresistible." -Booklist
