Mortal Strain

Bodily Harm

From his first day on the job at the Elrice Prison infirmary, Dr. Jack Harris knows something is very wrong. The prisoners he sees have bizarre, life-threatening symptoms. But they are more than just sick...they're dying.

Meanwhile, at the headquarters of a giant corporate conglomerate that manages prison infirmaries across the country, a secret medical experiment is in progress--one that offers hope to the desperately ill and permanently injured. Yet for others it holds a new kind of horror.

Searching for the truth, Jack is suddenly caught in a vast conspiracy--plunged into a nightmare world where the "advancement" of modern science forces some to make the ultimate sacrifice... and where those who interfere never live long enough to tell about it.
