Unearthed Steve Hodgkinson

"Sam Miro PhD is on a roll. Newly promoted and named as ?Young Researcher of the Year? it seems his passion for science and his commitment to the environment are finally paying off. That is until he becomes embroiled in a political conspiracy to unseat the government through an act of deliberate environmental sabotage. The situation spirals out of control and as Sam is hunted down he has to draw on all his skill and resourcefulness to avert a human health disaster. Making good use of scientific fact in a fictional setting, Unearthed has been variously described as ?a great read?, ?fast paced? and ?a real page turner?. Thrillers, let alone eco-thrillers set in New Zealand, are few and far between so this thought provoking new novel has much to recommend it.
