These files contain information on new biological warfare agents more deadly than Anthrax or other bioagents; they describe a unique delivery system using small flying robotic insects. Foreign terrorist groups, Chinese and Moroccan, both after the files, confront Finder. He must also locate and stop a rogue Army Colonel who has stolen the bioagent cultures and developed a clandestine underground lab for their production. The saga comes to a climax when all parties meet in a field near an old, dilapidated red barn in the Maryland countryside. Set in Washington, DC, The Eider Files is the intriguing adventure of an ordinary man placed in extraordinary circumstances, against criminal and terrorist elements with which he has no experience. It's an adventure where scientific know-how and plain common sense prevail during several weeks that could drastically affect the future of bioterrorism and the world.
