Summary:

With U.S. intelligence agencies wracked by internal power struggles
and paralyzed by bureaucracy, the President was forced to establish
his own clandestine group--Covert-One. It is only activated as a last
resort, when the threat is on a global scale and time is running
out.In northern Uganda, an American special forces team is decimated
by a group of normally peaceful farmers. Video of the attack shows
even women and children possessing almost supernatural speed and
strength, consumed with a rage that makes them immune to pain, fear,
and all but the most devastating injuries. Covert-One's top
operative, army microbiologist Colonel Jon Smith, is sent to
investigate the attack and finds evidence of a parasitic infection
that for centuries has been causing violent insanity and then going
dormant. This time, though, it's different. The parasite had been
purposely kept alive and crudely transmitted in acts of terrorism.
Now the director of Iranian Intelligence is in Uganda trying to
obtain this biological weapon to unleash it on the West. Smith and
his team are ambushed and cut off from all outside support just as
they begin to suspect that forces much more powerful than the
Iranians are in play--forces that can be traced to Washington itself.
