Pushcart Prize Nominee Reilly Maginn's debut novel, BIO, a medical action thriller is a truly frightening tale of Jihadist bioterrorism.

Set in the south Pacific, a volunteer American physician/surgeon faces off against not only a deadly virus, but also the radical Muslim terrorists who developed it. There is a fittingly appropriate conclusion.
