Self Arrest: A Novel

Tucson, Arizona May 23th, 2010 – In 2005, researchers announced that they had sequenced the genes of the H1N1 Spanish Flu virus that killed over twenty million people in 1918. In the spring of 2009, a distant descendent of this virus erupted out of Mexico, circling the globe and becoming a pandemic within months, before fizzling out. We were lucky. In Self Arrest, Mr. Esmont explores the potential of an intentional release of a reanimated Spanish Flu and the steps one man must take to prevent its release.

In this thrilling debut novel, Mr. Esmont plumbs the depths of friendship and family loyalty in the face of global catastrophe, presenting a future in which one man possesses the technology and the resources to end civilization as we know it.

Mr. Esmont actively blogs about contemporary issues such as environmental catastrophe, near-future disasters, and exotic adventure travel at SelfArrest.com, sharing knowledge gained both in the writing of Self Arrest and in the course of everyday life.

Self Arrest: A Novel is available in print and Kindle formats from Amazon.com and in various other eBook formats from Smashwords.com.
