Invasive

**A gripping sci-fi tech thriller, set in the eye-opening, paranoid world of the electrifying** Zeroes **—from the** New York Times **–bestselling author of** Wanderers **.** Hannah Stander is a consultant for the FBI—a futurist who helps the Agency with cases that feature demonstrations of bleeding-edge technology. It’s her job to help them identify unforeseen threats: hackers, AIs, genetic modification, anything that in the wrong hands could harm the homeland. Hannah is in an airport, waiting to board a flight home to see her family, when she receives a call from Agent Hollis Copper. “I’ve got a cabin full of over a thousand dead bodies,” he tells her. Whether those bodies are all human, he doesn’t say. What Hannah finds is a horrifying murder that points to the impossible—someone weaponizing the natural world in a most unnatural way. Discovering who—and why—will take her on a terrifying chase from the Arizona deserts to the secret island laboratory of a billionaire inventor/philanthropist. Hannah knows there are a million ways the world can end, but she just might be facing one she could never have predicted—a new threat both ancient and cutting-edge that could wipe humanity off the earth. **“Enthralling . . . Wendig does an impeccable job blending fact and fiction as he describes invasive species and insects being used as biological weapons.” —** The Washington Post **“Think Thomas Harris’ Will Graham and Clarice Starling rolled into one and pitched on the knife’s edge of a scenario that makes** Jurassic Park **look like a carnival ride. Another rip-roaring, deeply paranoid thriller about the reasons to fear the future.” —** Kirkus Reviews **(starred review)**
