“The price for uncovering the secret of the satan bug comes high - YOUR LIFE!”

Science FictionThrillerMystery

A US government germ warfare lab has had an accident. The first theory is that one of the germs has been released and killed several scientists. The big fear is that a more virulent strain, named The Satan Bug because all life can be killed off by it should it escape, may have been stolen.

VIBE

A creeping dread permeates this mid-century thriller. The fear of an unseen, unstoppable contagion creates palpable anxiety. It’s a chilling, paranoia-fueled race against time where scientific ambition meets biological terror.
