For better or worse....but oh god please don't talk about the rats...rodents....carriers of the plague...Set with similar fashion to current trends and events this was a ripe for the picking novel about a beautiful flower, a pathogen, Vietnamese rats, and energy gel packs, and a plague (pandemic) that is terrifying it's nation.
The characters are complex yet lively, the setting takes place in numerous laboratories, hospital settings, and Vietnam.
The original idea and premise centers around a young lady named Alexis who falls in love (or so we think) with Austin while tending to his injuries as an emergency room physician.
As time progresses we learn of this bike tour in which everything changes.
Austin goes ahead, Alexis unable to keep up falls behind, Austin then disappears.
His body turns up with some interesting and yet unexplained injuries such as dart wounds to his hands, bite marks, etc.
What really was this Vietnam trip all about?
Could Austin have been hiding something more deadly and or dangerous?
The Red Lotus challenges the heart, mind, and soul as we race against time to find a vaccine and a cure to this deadly plague carried by animals that infects humans.
Similar to the bats from Wu Tang China and the current pandemonium surrounding our world this was ripe with angst, heartbreak, and drama.
Many will die but only a few know the truth about the real cause, the origin, the deadly nature of it all....
