A Shot in the Light: Parts I - Iv (Volume 1) Hart Johnson First Bundle edition

A beach covered in dead seagulls brings Sidney Knight's quest for quiet to a halt. She's come to the Oregon coast to hammer out a few freelance deadlines but this breaks her concentration. According to her brother, a scientist at the Centers for Disease Control, the avian flu has reached epidemic classification. His warning not to get the flu shot, contrary to authority recommendations, scares her. Back in Portland she begins to dig and notices a disturbing trend: the shot, rather than reducing risk, is increasing deaths. Health departments, hospitals, and news sources are silent and care providers have been warned not to "scare people". Sidney, young and inexperienced, doubts she can handle a story this big, but what if she's the only one looking? When the CDC is locked down with her brother inside and one of her closest friends dies from the vaccine, Sidney's mind is made up. Green or not, she has to figure out how this happened, who is responsible, and who can set it right. A Shot in the Light is a new adult epidemic conspiracy thriller and will appeal to people who like a complex plot, powerful relationships and an emotional roller coaster. This collection holds the first four books of 12 in the serially released A Shot in the Light. Dare I say, much as I loved [Stephen King's] The Stand, that I am loving Johnson?s serial even more? Yeah, she has the whole good versus evil thing going on, but it?s tangible. There are no good versus evil forces fighting behind the humans?it is the humans. So, in my mind, that makes it feel real. - Jade C. Jamison, author
