Description

Studying plant biology seems like it might be dull and safe. However, when Eddie Sanchez went to a conference expecting a series of dull but informative talks, he got way more than he asked for. As one series of talks began, only the fact that he was sitting next to an oddly-dressed stranger kept him alive when everyone else in the room met a horrible end.

Eddie's dumb luck pulled him into a desperate chase for another scientist who might be carrying the same parasitic infection. And it turns out that, aside from this oddly-dressed man calling himself Lawrence Samson, there may be others on the scientist's trail, or perhaps their own! Eddie and Lawrence try to track down the possibly infected professor and find evidence to determine whether or not he's a threat. At the same time, they have to avoid some people who don't want the public to find out about the parasites.

Before Death Blossoms is a sci-fi pulp with a little action, a little mystery, and a little weird science. Lawrence Samson was once a biologist, but now he's been forced into a life on the run from all kinds of strange creatures. His inventiveness and his willingness to look danger in the face are his weapons against all kinds of biological oddities that threaten mankind.
