A race against time to prevent catastrophe.
Congo Variant is the new, fast-paced thriller from the author of the best-selling Hurst Chronicles series.
1998: As the world teeters on the brink of war, two unlikely heroes are thrust into a conspiracy that threatens millions.
Ex-special forces operative Blake Harris infiltrates a UN inspection team in Iraq, hunting for the truth behind Saddam's elusive weapons program. With tensions at a breaking point and military action imminent, Harris must uncover the facts before it's too late—even if it means venturing into the heart of danger.
Halfway across the globe, Dr. Alice Bishop, a brilliant young epidemiologist, plunges deep into the Congo rainforest on what should be a routine expedition. Instead, she stumbles upon a mysterious outbreak with the potential to ignite chaos across central Africa—and beyond.
When their worlds collide, Harris and Bishop unearth a terrifying plot that could plunge Western civilization into unprecedented turmoil. Racing against time and shadowy forces, they must stop a catastrophe of unimaginable proportions.
Set against the explosive backdrop of Iraq’s Operation Desert Fox, Congo Variant hurtles the reader from the steaming rainforests of Africa to the powder-keg streets of Baghdad. This white-knuckle tale of bioterrorism, espionage, and raw courage in the face of overwhelming odds will leave you gasping for breath.

Robin Crumby is the British author of 'The Hurst Chronicles', a post-apocalyptic series set on the south coast of England in the aftermath of a deadly flu pandemic. Since reading John Wyndham’s Day of the Triffids as a child, Robin became fascinated by end of the world dystopian literature and was inspired to start writing by Cormac McCarthy’s 'The Road' and Emily St. John Mandel’s 'Station Eleven'. Why? Because post-apocalyptic fiction fires the imagination like nothing else. Pondering what comes next, who would survive, what would life look like? Much of the best fiction in this popular genre focuses on brain-eating zombies or events unfolding in the USA, so Robin determined to write a story set in the UK. His Eureka moment came wandering the shingle beach at Milford-on-sea, inspired by the beauty and rich history of the Solent. Where better to survive the end of the world than a medieval castle surrounded by water? Robin spent much of his childhood messing about in boats, exploring the many waterways, harbours and military forts of the Isle of Wight, where 'The Hurst Chronicles' series is set.
