Summary
Matt Kearns, linguist, archaeologist and reluctant explorer from Beneath the Dark Ice and Black Mountain returns in his first full-time adventure. And this time he doesn't have Alex Hunter to save him when the stuff hits the fan.
When a fame-hungry scientist brings an impossible, living specimen of a creature long thought extinct back from the wild jungles of South America he unwittingly brings along a passenger. Something with the potential to destroy every living thing on our planet.
The infestation begins, rapidly overtaking medical resources and resisting all treatment. One woman knows the danger: Carla Nero, chief scientist of the Center for Disease Control. She makes Matt an offer he can't refuse and together they join a team heading to the deep jungle in a desperate race to locate the hidden place where the specimen was taken.
Only by finding the location of the specimen can the team - and the world - hope to uncover the secret of how to survive the ancient, horrifying parasite that has been released.

Was that it?
The book stopped abruptly, and at a point that was only tenuously logical at best. It's a very short listen, about half a full size novel and definitely not worth a credit

Full credit for only 5 hours?
Maybe its my fault... I started the book and then it finished mid bike-ride as end of episode 1.
As an overall book , I would probably have given 4+stars... but to realise that it's only first part and have to use 2 more credits, then the value-for-money drops down drastically and I give it 2 stars.
:-(... sorry
