Contagious

By: Jacqueline Druga

Narrated by: Andrew B. Wehrlen

What starts as an emergence of a new virus quickly turns into Mother Nature’s ultimate population control.

While attending a seminar at the Ambassador Hotel, Ava Mason is unknowingly exposed to a carrier of a highly contagious virus. The next morning, she wakes to a steady pounding on her door. Within minutes, her home is stormed and she and her three children are apprehended, placed in a van and taken away.

Quarantined.

They are told nothing. No one is. Ava, her children, and others are brought to the Ambassador and sealed in. It is one of many locations quarantined in an attempt to contain the virus . The outbreak rapidly spirals out of control and the world is thrown into chaos and economic collapse.

What was once their prison becomes their safe haven from a world besieged with violence, illness and a world that desperately stops at nothing to end the virus.

While quarantined, Ava and the others form a bond and they watch as not only the world, but those around them fall victim to the virus.

To Ava, what happens outside the hotel is minuscule compared to what happens inside. Everything she loves and cares about is in the Ambassador. She wants only to protect her children. But can she against such an invincible foe such as the virus that pushed the world to the brink of extinction.

Book was pretty good

I felt like the author could have elaborated more when they tried the cure, and the patient’s reaction to it (no spoilers). I was looking for more “action“ in those scenes. I guess I’m just used to her other novels in the outcome that comes with Things changing. I’m trying to write this review in a way that I’m not giving any other details away. LOL all in all, pretty good Read

Wonderful!

Jaqualine is my new favorite author! Absolutely loved this story! I can't wait for more of her work!!

Fantastic Listen

I really liked this book and was surprised how really good it was.

The character development was done very well and the emotions came through.

As always Andrew B. Wehrlen’s narration was excellent.

I loved it!

I was engaged from the first moment I started listening! I loved this book and look forward to listening to more! I highly recommend this book! You won't regret it!

A world doomed by a common virus

This is the second audiobook by this author and the same with the narrator I like the way she weaves a tale so you see, feel, weep and laugh with characters. In addition she creates her story's from common virus that we may see in our area or from another country like a flu virus. And how it can and would effect our country, or other countries and finally tells of what governments might do to stop the spread of the virus and how the virus may mutate.
In this audible it a story based on families, friends who are effected by a virus something is the flu but soon it discovered it not and it was actually from India and the doctors and health agencies thought they had cured the virus. The virus starts from one cough on a plane from India to Paris for a fashion show she takes sick a doctor is called in and gives here flu medicines but in four days she passes away and for the world it is the start of doomsday for many people and soon afterwards many cities that is nuked to try control the virus.
You live the lives of a family who in the end are lost to virus and one member shot by over zealous military personnel, then you meet a pro wrestler who puts himself in harm way to help other who are sick or dieing, a nineteen year old punk rocker who starts off reckless and watch his friends die at the hotel and has to grow up fast and finally you meet the manager and staff of the hotel were most of the story is told from after everyone is quarantined at.
You find some laughter but as the story is told you feel sadness, death and shedding of tears.
I recommend this audible to everyone it is well written and told.
