They say racism is confined to small, geographic areas and that no hatred spans the globe. But when blueprints for a deadly genetic virus, engineered to attack specific human characteristics, disappear - ex-astronaut John Westin faces a potential genocide all too real. With a World War II past haunting the present, three world leaders desperately seek the virus: an embittered Japanese industrialist, Iran's single-minded leader, and the U.S. President who wants the weapon destroyed. Balanced on the edge of technology's double-edged sword, Westin races headlong into a global conflict threatening world peace.

Good story, mediocre writing & atrocious editing,
By
This review is from: In the Wrong Hands (Paperback)
Never in my four decades of reading have I happened across a book rife with so many typos, malapropisms and broken grammar.The story itself is interesting and in some ways amazingly timely despite being written in 1994. Mr. Pierson clearly had a pretty good grasp on coming technologies. The editing, or failure thereof, destroys what could have been a fair-to-middling near-future science fiction read. "In The Wrong Hands," a title equally applicable to when Mr. Pierson wrote it, the time the manuscript for this book spent in its editor's hands and the time it (hopefully won't) spend in your hands.
