 Anyone remember this one? I haven't got a copy anymore (why the hell do I keep getting rid of books?) but as far as I can recall, this was a pretty good read, sort of like the first half of 'The Stand' without the supernatural element. The above cover was the one I used to have, I think it was a Star book. |

Synopsis nicked from the Official G.Masterton site:
PLAGUE
(1977)
A state of emergency is declared across America as a new strain of bacillus sweeps across the nation with alarming speed and devastation - a combination of bubonic and various other plagues caused by incorrect disposal of the nation's waste products. There is no known antidote.
When the President informs the nation that it's their duty to protect disease free zones, that's exactly what they do. The book then turns into a war between those who are infected, those who aren't, and those who think everyone else is ... the result is nothing short of a blood-bath.
