Index Case by Sam Dawson

Announcing a new novel! 

Black Beacon Books is thrilled to announce that we'll be publishing the latest novel by British author Sam Dawson in September. This medical thriller is a virus you definitely do want to catch! 

 

Rob is an epidemiologist, dedicated to fighting disease and all too aware that  the UK is unprepared for the deadly pandemic that's about to hit. As he plans how his family will survive, he ponders the traces of  long-dead villages and plagues past, and begins to wonder: is it time to be part of the problem, not the solution?

INDEX CASE  by Sam Dawson isn't just another novel - it's a pandemic in itself. A thoroughly-researched medical thriller, a critical analysis of public policy, a survival handbook, a guidebook to some of the historical highlights along the south coast of England, and ultimately a philosophical treatise. All of this wrapped up for the intrepid reader in one gripping novel with Rob, an epidemiologist, preparing his family for the deadly pandemic that's about to hit.
