Reviews
"[Koepp] writes well, he has a wicked sense of humor and his characters are so keenly, intelligently and even movingly drawn. . . . On every level, Cold Storage is pure, unadulterated entertainment." -- A.J. Jacobs, New York Times bestselling author of The Know-It-All "Engaging. . . . Koepp recognizes that this is all pretty zany and imbues the novel with a mordant sense of humor, which gives Cold Storage a welcome vibrancy and lightness." -- USA Today "The story line in Cold Storage invokes classic horror films. . . . It's scary, and a great deal of fun." -- Associated Press "Koepp delivers a story worthy of Michael Crichton." -- Entertainment Weekly "It has all the hallmarks of a thriller destined for Hollywood." -- Polygon "A thriller of breakneck speed, Cold Storage will be an engaging read that fans of Blake Crouch's Dark Matter could devour in one sitting." -- Ars Technica "Chilling. . . . Propulsive. . . . Koepp is skilled at sharp, often humorous dialogue. . . . [A] taut, mordant thriller debut." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "A terrific thriller: ambitious, audacious, gory, scary, flamboyant, and funny. . . . [Koepp makes] a seamless, massively effective transition from the visual medium to the literary. The book doesn't read like a modestly beefed-up pitch for a movie; it's a rich, textured, and downright impossible-to-put-down story." -- Booklist (starred review) "A sensational SF thriller. . . . Breakneck pacing and nonstop action. . . . Michael Crichton fans won't want to miss this one." -- Publishers Weekly "Cold Storage is The Andromeda Strain on crack: chilling end-of-the-world terror infected with wicked humor. Koepp pulls it off with style. When the real apocalypse arrives, may it be even half as funny as this." -- Barron's "An ultra-flammable combination of science-based horror, primal nightmare-level terror, and unrelenting action, cunningly tied together by indelible characters and a satisfyingly sly, knowing sense of humor." -- Steven Heller, Imprint To be simultaneously terrifying and hilarious is a masterstroke few writers can pull off, but Koepp manages in this incredible fiction debut that calls to mind a beautiful hybrid of Michael Crichton and Carl Hiaasen. Cold Storage is sheer thrillery goodness, and riotously entertaining. -- Blake Crouch, New York Times bestselling author of Dark Matter "A thrilling, funny, and unexpectedly moving joy ride." -- Scott Smith, New York Times bestselling author of A Simple Plan and The Ruins You might as well put your plans on ice for the next twenty-four hours, as all you'll be doing is reading this book. The very definition of 'thriller,' David Koepp's Cold Storage grabs you and shakes you and ultimately leaves you grinning. -- Neal Pollack, author of Alternadad, A beautiful hybrid of Michael Crichton and Carl Hiassen. Cold Storage is sheer thrillery goodness, and riotously entertaining.

Synopsis
"On every level, Cold Storage is pure, unadulterated entertainment." --Douglas Preston, The New York Times Book Review For fans of The Martian , Dark Matter, and Before the Fall comes an astonishing debut thriller by the screenwriter of Jurassic Park : a wild and terrifying bioterrorism adventure about three strangers who must work together to contain a highly contagious, deadly organism that could destroy all of humanity. They thought it was contained. They were wrong. When Pentagon bioterror operative Roberto Diaz was sent to investigate a suspected biochemical attack, he found something far worse: a highly mutative organism capable of extinction-level destruction. He contained it and buried it in cold storage deep beneath a little-used military repository. Now, after decades of festering in a forgotten sub-basement, the specimen has found its way out and is on a lethal feeding frenzy. Only Diaz knows how to stop it. He races across the country to help two unwitting security guards--one an ex-con, the other a single mother. Over one harrowing night, the unlikely trio must figure out how to quarantine this horror again. All they have is luck, fearlessness, and a mordant sense of humor. Will that be enough to save all of humanity?, "On every level, Cold Storage is pure, unadulterated entertainment." --Douglas Preston, The New York Times Book Review For fans of The Martian, Dark Matter, and Before the Fall comes an astonishing debut thriller by the screenwriter of Jurassic Park: a wild and terrifying bioterrorism adventure about three strangers who must work together to contain a highly contagious, deadly organism that could destroy all of humanity.
