Patricia Edwards hasn't been the same since The Fever. From the moment she woke from the delirium, she hungered for increasing power and authority over Jacob Fowler ? and he's been eager to accede to her demands. Her assistant becomes both more and less as she exerts her influence over his most personal moments.
But Patricia isn't the only woman stricken with The Fever. It's already swept through the International Summit, and beyond. Patricia must step onto the stage of world power to keep the entire earth's population safe. At least the leading experts on communicable diseases are under one roof.
The Fever has left its mark, though. As Patricia rebuilds her team, she must understand her own need to make sure the men working for her know their proper place. Does it matter if this need to dominate the men around her is a result of The Fever? Or must Patricia fight the war of her own desires before she can save the world?
