Epilogue
G eneral Stone stood outside his daughter’s hospital room listening to her and his soon-to-be son-in-law fuss over each other.
One less thing to worry about.
He’d seen this coming long before either of them had. Max was already a friend, and now he was family.
He was going to be a grandfather to two little boys. Bonus.
The future looked a lot brighter now than it had an hour ago when he got the latest report from Dr. Perry and her Special Forces partner, and fiancé, Weapons Sergeant Connor Button. As near as they could figure, Akbar had trained no less than a dozen people in his low-tech version of biological weapons creation.
Seven of them were dead, most from the flu.
That left five very dangerous extremists loose in the world. Madmen who had the capability of creating bioweapons that could wipe out entire towns or even countries. A cell phone found on Akbar’s body provided enough details to make two things clear. A traitor, someone inside the American military, had managed to warn Akbar’s surviving apprentices in enough time for them to get away. And the next attack would be on American soil.
