Shortlisted for the CWA Steel Dagger Award for Best Thriller of the Year
‘Pure, unadulterated entertainment’ New York Times
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.
Now, after decades of festering in a forgotten sub-basement, the specimen has found its way out and is on a lethal feeding frenzy. And 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 … before it’s too late.
For fans of Dean Koontz, Stephen King and smart, entertaining sci-fi

Opinie krytyków
Praise for Cold Storage:
‘Gruesome, terrifying, pulse-pounding, and also pretty goddamn funny in places. You need to get on this right away.’ Stephen King
‘Jurrassic Park screenwriter Koepp’s jaunty debut … it’s Michael Crichton with laughs’ Financial Times
‘You’ll be grinning and gagging in equal measure’ SFX
‘To be simultaneously terrifying and hilarious is a masterstroke few writers can pull off, but Koepp manages in this incredible fiction debut that calls to mind a beautiful hybrid of Michael Crichton and Carl Hiassen. Cold Storage is sheer thrillery goodness, and riotously entertaining’ Blake Crouch, New York Times bestselling author of Dark Matter
‘A thrilling, funny, and unexpectedly moving joy ride’ Scott Smith, New York Times bestselling author
‘You might as well put your plans on ice for the next twenty-four hours, as all you’ll be doing is reading this book. The very definition of ‘thriller,’ David Koepp’s Cold Storage grabs you and shakes you and ultimately leaves you grinning’ Scott Frank, Academy Award-nominated writer of Logan and Out of Sight
‘Cold Storage is The Andromeda Strain on crack: chilling end-of-the-world terror infected with wicked humour. Koepp pulls it off with style. When the real apocalypse arrives, may it be even half as funny as this’ Linwood Barclay, New York Times bestselling author
‘An ultra-flammable combination of science-based horror, primal nightmare-level terror, and unrelenting action, cunningly tied together by indelible characters and a satisfyingly sly, knowing sense of humour’ Steven Soderbergh, Academy Award-winning director of Traffic and Ocean’s Eleven
Dieser Stärke des Buches geschuldet ist die Schwäche: es lässt etwas an inhaltlicher Tiefe und Komplexität vermissen und so ist es halt leider Sci-Fi Fastfood, nett zu lesen, bald vergessen.
Gutes Drehbuch, -gutes Sci-Fi Fastfood
