A deadly, extremely contagious virus from the central African rain forest arises out of nowhere in the D.C. suburbs. There's no remedy. Ninety percent of its victims die within a few days. A covert military SWAT squad of scientists and soldiers is assembled to halt the spread of this unusual "hot" virus. This epic tale is told in The Hot Zone, which also provides a terrifying description of the "crashes" of uncommon and deadly diseases into the human population. The Hot Zone is shocking, terrifying, and unavoidably compelling evidence that reality is often scarier than fiction.
