New suspense novel paints realistic picture of global destruction
Hidden and Imminent Dangers by D.W. Hardin offers a look at what could happen if a deadly pandemic spread through the modern world

LOUISVILLE, KY (MMD Newswire) January 26, 2010 -- Hidden and Imminent Dangers by D.W. Hardin is a suspense novel that tells the story of how America's medical, political and legal communities could potentially contribute to the global spread of a deadly pandemic.

Hidden and Imminent Dangers follows Mac MacIntosh, an emergency room nurse that has returned to Louisville after a tour in Afghanistan as a medic. MacItnosh is suspicious of a patient's severe flu-like symptoms and turns to disease specialist Mercato Marcus for help. Marcus suspects that they are witnessing the outbreak of a mutant strain of avian flu.

As MacIntosh and Marcus struggle to alert chief medical experts, they are met with administrative conflict and clashing egos. The internal fighting between hospital administrators delays efforts to contact the Centers for Disease Control, and the virus grows in intensity and spreads quickly.

"Being that I have been in both the medical and law enforcement fields, I realized government agencies were not prepared for a truly virulent disease," says Hardin.

Hardin offers a glimpse at the catastrophic potential of a global pandemic. He works to present a realistic scenario in which the limitations of the medical industry, government officials and legal professionals fail to halt the spread of global destruction.

Hidden and Imminent Dangers is available for sale online at Amazon.com and through additional wholesale and retail channels worldwide.
