Infected by Scott Sigler

A pulse-pounding medical thriller and body-horror tale about a fast-moving, mysterious organism that invades human brains, driving victims into violent, hallucinatory rages and grotesque physiological changes. As public health teams and shadowy agencies scramble to identify and contain the contagion, a handful of survivors — including a severely damaged patient whose mind is disturbingly linked to the pathogen — uncover a frightening pattern that suggests the outbreak is far larger and more purposeful than anyone imagined. Brutal, visceral, and suspenseful, the story explores infection, identity, and the desperate lengths people will go to survive.
