Seoul Legacy, The Orphan's Flu

By Phil Rosette

Synopsis. SEOUL LEGACY, THE ORPHAN'S FLU. 2009. A North Korean infant is kidnapped from the wife of Kim Jong-Il's favorite army captain. The child is adopted in Seoul by unsuspecting wealthy Americans. Too late, the new parents and the world discover the baby has been infected with a human strain of bird flu. Pandemic follows from Seoul to Seattle to Detroit, leaving hundreds dead and millions quarantined. Once the new American president learns the H5N1 strain has been weaponized, preparation begins for unparalleled reprisal against North Korea. The world's two largest armies are drawn to confrontation when China takes advantage of the chaos and invades Taiwan. As these events are unfolding, Homeland Security teams up with the Treasury Department to follow a 40-year-old trail that leads to an unholy alliance in the Philippines between a ruthless flesh trader and an al Qaeda splinter group called the Abu Sayyaf. These two stories of war, man against man, and man against disease, play out against the backdrop of the 50 year Korean conflict. The press dubs it the Orphan's Flu, and the CDC in Atlanta positively identifies Patient Zero. It takes the U. S. Treasury Department to discover the Abu Sayyaf connection and their clever plan to ignite what they pray will become WWIII. ===PRAISE FOR SEOUL LEGACY, THE ORPHAN'S FLU.
