THE AMAZON STRAIN is an action-packed thriller that never slows down once Jane decides to search for her father. The story line is fast-paced with two wonderful lead characters, a vile villain, and a top of the line support cast. In addition to all that, the Amazon descriptions are incredible as the audience will travel along side Jane and Mac on quite an adventure.
