Michael Crichton gets Micro
I'm not convinced it's the best title he's ever come up with, but I like to think that Micro could have some of the old scary azz monster magic and raptor shaped knife edge tension that made his previous work so good.
It begins with a dead body in Honolulu found covered in minuscule cuts, but with a lack of any clear evidence or motives, the death is taken to be an unusual suicide. However, when a micro-biology start-up company located close to Harvard University in the US sends a group of 7 young grads to a lab in Hawaii the true nature of the technological threat at large becomes much more evident.
Though the premise sounds a little too close to a few old episodes of X-Files, with Michael Crichton's skill for tension, it should be a gripping novel.
