  Eight hundred years ago, the plague killed 200 million people. Today, it may kill billions. Michael Crichton meets Dan Brown in this breathless thriller!
  
  NATO infectious diseases expert Alana Vaughn receives an urgent message from Italy, summoning her to Genoa to examine a critically ill patient. She's stunned to discover that he's dying of the plague... the same plague known as the Black Death, which raced across Europe in the 14th century, killing nearly half the world's population.
  
  Alana soon suspects bioterrorism, but her World Health Organisation counterpart, Byron Menke, disagrees. In their desperate hunt to track down the source of the outbreak, they stumble across an 800-year-old monastery and a medieval journal that might hold the secret to the present-day outbreak. With the lethal disease spreading fast, and no end in sight, they'll have to race against time to uncover the truth before millions die.
  
  Praise for Cold Plague
  
  Fast-paced and smartly written . . . Kalla has quickly matured into a force to be reckoned with. . . . Blood Lies springs several fresh surprises on the reader (including one whopping great shocker). Booklist
  
  Fans of Presumed Innocent will find welcome echoes of that modern classic in Blood Lies. The twists are well done, and Kalla has a gift rare in the thriller field for creating sympathetic characters. Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
  
  Praise for Blood Lies
  
  Michael Crichton ought to be looking over his shoulder. He has some serious competition in Kalla. The Chronicle Herald
  
  Praise for Pandemic
  
  Very much in the Michael Crichton school of cutting-edge scientifically rooted thrillers. . . . An absorbing, compulsive thriller, the sort of book you could stay up too late reading. I'd advise against that, however. With all the bugs going around, you're going to need your immune system functioning at full strength . . . Vancouver Sun
  
  Kalla's ripped-from-the-headlines plot and confident command of both language and medicine make this sobering book a pleasure. Publishers Weekly
  
  Pandemic starts fast and never lets up on the suspense . . . Kalla juggles the many narrative balls easily, manages to insert a little romance, puts his protagonists in plenty of danger and drives his complex plot to a rousing climax. Edmonton Journal
