NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE

"On every level, Cold Storage is pure, unadulterated entertainment."—Douglas Preston, The New York Times

For readers of Andy Weir and Noah Hawley comes an astonishing debut by the screenwriter of Jurassic Park: a wild and terrifying adventure about three strangers who must work together to contain a highly contagious, deadly organism

When Pentagon bioterror operative Roberto Diaz was sent to investigate a suspected biochemical attack, he found something far worse: a highly mutative organism capable of extinction-level destruction. He contained it and buried it in cold storage deep beneath a little-used military repository.

Now, after decades of festering in a forgotten sub-basement, the specimen has found its way out and is on a lethal feeding frenzy. Only Diaz knows how to stop it.

He races across the country to help two unwitting security guards—one an ex-con, the other a single mother. Over one harrowing night, the unlikely trio must figure out how to quarantine this horror again. All they have is luck, fearlessness, and a mordant sense of humor. Will that be enough to save all of humanity?

It's a decent enough story with enjoyable characters and a nice take on an apocalyptic treat. Some of the jargon used feels very kliché and the gun descriptions are sometimes nonsense.

But all in all its a fun story to listen through.

The story spans quite a long period of time which makes it a little hard sometimes to keep track who when and where the story picks up after time progressions. Thankfully, there aren't many of those. The story is interesting and really picks up in the second quarter. It is well written without any lengths and manages to stay interesting throughout.
I really liked Rupert Friend's reading. It was pleasant listening to him narrate the story and he is easy and clear to understand. Well worth the listen!
