In his national bestseller HYBRID, Brian O'Grady created a bracing and vividly realized tale of a virus gone out of control. At the center of that story was Amanda Flynn, a woman not killed by the EDH1 virus, but changed in frightening ways. HYBRID only hinted at the story of Amanda's work in Honduras that led to her exposure and the ramifications when the American government sought to contain the damage. Now, that story can be told.AMANDA'S STORY is the heart-stopping tale of a woman caught up in a storm she wanted no part of, and what happens when she refuses to be collateral damage. It is the story that readers of HYBRID have been waiting for and that new readers will find impossible to put down.

NATIONAL BESTSELLER Seven years ago, Amanda Flynn returned from a Honduran camp as the sole survivor of a mysterious new virus known as EDH1. Most of its victims die a gruesome, agonizing death. Others become violent savages. But a precious few, like Amanda, survive . . . and change. Amanda escaped from a three-month quarantine because the virus made her different, superior. She can sense things, do things, using only her mind – and these abilities tempt her to test their limits. To harm. Even, though she may resist, to kill. Now, an outbreak of violent deaths in a peaceful Colorado town leads Amanda to suspect that a mutated EDH1 has arrived in America. The virologists she warns want her back, for her immunity may be the only key to its defeat. But no lab can hold her. Not while she wields the power. And now there is another. A man of menace: tall, amoral, relentless. His mission is nothing less than the end of human society – and the birth of a new order forged of his own will. He has the power, too. And, armed with his own store of virulent death, he is coming. Combining the technological authority of THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN with the dark mystery of THE X-FILES, here is a heart-pounding thriller you'll never forget.

Hybrid

Once every generation comes a story of the world on the brink that has such scope, such imagination, such humanity that readers can only gasp at the vision. ONLY SOME CAN HEAR MY VOICE is this generation's. Set just a few years in the future, it imagines a world where tensions have risen to the point where any number of events could lead to cataclysmic results. Into this world come two mysterious figures claiming to be oracles. The worlds they're predicting are vastly different, but their presence alone sets off a course of events that could lead us to the very edge. 
And then there is the boy – a boy who might the source of salvation . . . or apocalypse. 
Reminiscent of transcendent works like Stephen King's THE STAND and Robert McCammon's SWAN SONG, ONLY SOME CAN HEAR MY VOICE is a work of extraordinary imagination, a bracing cautionary tale, and a remarkable adventure.
