MALTHUS REVISITED The Cup of Wrath A Lindsey McCall Medical Mystery by Lin Wilder Eighteen-year-old Morgan Gardner did not seem like someone who could save the world--unless you took the time to notice her eyes. And most people didn't. Morgan's exceptional gifts were known only to her and to the animals she could understand better than people. For a long time, she told no one about her nightmares. Embarrassed and afraid that no one would believe her, Morgan waited until it was almost too late. Then she confided in her mom's best friend, Dr. Lindsey McCall. Lindsey and her husband Rich had worked hard to reestablish their lives and careers after their last harrowing escapade. Relocated in a beautiful California home and newly reunited with Lindsey's biological daughter LJ, all seemed to be going smoothly--until an enemy from their past returned with as deadly a plan as they could imagine. The fourth novel in Lin Wilder's popular Lindsey McCall series is her best one yet--combining the innovative medical research her readers have come to admire with a new and terrifying threat to the world's population: a biological timebomb. Vivid characters old and new rampage across the continents of Europe, Asia, and the U.S. to stop the contagion, picking up steam as they head toward a life-or-death climax in the remote Qinghai province of China. Malthus Revisited adds a dystopian element to Wilder's evolving Lindsey McCall mystery series, and is guaranteed to captivate both her loyal fans and eager newcomers, right down to its last riveting page.… (mais)

This is the fourth novel in the series; however, I had no issues with catching up or finding my rhythm. The novel follows multiple story lines, but the author handles them with great care and artistry. Lin Wilder did an amazing job in showing different stories and making them all connect perfectly. Fast paced and tremendously developed, the story is riveting. The novel has compelling characters, especially Lindsey and Morgan. These two women are depicted to be strong, emotional, both fighters and human. I enjoyed the fact that they were as close to reality as possible. They seemed to come to life on the pages and I thoroughly enjoyed their journey and their progress. And don’t even start me on the end!!! This book is simply amazing.

The fourth novel in author Lin Wilder's popular Lindsey McCall series, "Malthus Revisited combines the innovative medical research with a new and terrifying threat to the world's population that is a biological time bomb. "Malthus Revisited" adds a dystopian element to the evolving Lindsey McCall mystery series. With an underlying premise and theme that could be plucked from tomorrow's newspaper headlines, "Malthus Revisited" is a superbly crafted and reader riveting read from cover to cover. While especially and unreservedly recommended for community library Contemporary Fiction collections, it should be noted for personal reading lists that "Malthus Revisited" is also available in a digital book format (Kindle, $7.99).

Lin Wilder’s thriller Malthus Revisited: The Cup of Wrath is a solid, fast-paced thriller that will certainly keep you on the edge of your seats for the entire breakneck ride. I understand this is the fourth book in the Dr McCall thriller series, so fans will undoubtedly find their favourite characters here and enjoy them. There was also a supernatural, quasi-religious tinge to the story, which elevated it above your standard spy/special forces thriller. The action was full-on, although the scenes jumped sometimes disconcertingly at times, as did the perspectives. That having been said, it was a very easy read and one I had some difficulty putting down at times. For me, the best and most interesting character was the young autistic girl, Morgan.

Back before I met my husband, a former Marine and psychologist for ex-combat veterans, I knew nothing about veterans—specifically, Marine combat soldiers. During the years of our marriage, I learned.
This book is dedicated to those soldiers: Most of whom we never hear of, who do and see the unspeakable.

he moment the vision spoke his first and middle names, the mists surrounding David evaporated, and Joe could see his face clearly. And those eyes. Good and gracious God, what eyes—brimming with the dark, awful knowledge of killing and death. Looking into them enveloped Cairns with grief and regret. The reek of all the bloodshed, that cloying smell of blood—oceans of it—he could never have imagined such a thing. And the dreadful weight of David’s words, “No more. No more killing. Enough. There has been more than enough killing.” Those words seemed to sear down into the depths of the soul Cairns had forgotten he had.
