Author: Cobb, Stephen Euin

Condition: New

. Dr. Mark Tolman-the only human doctor on the newly established colony world of Redhook-is not prepared for this bizarre alien disease.. Everyone reacts differently, yet each gets trapped in an extreme emotional state.. An enraged woman attacks everyone she meets, a frightened man jumps at shadows, a pregnant woman cant stop laughing, which starts her husband endlessly crying, and one lust-filled woman tries to molest everyone within reach... Military ships from Earth arrive in orbit and place the planet under strict quarantine and-afraid it will spread to other inhabited planets-secretly consider using nuclear warheads to destroy the disease by annihilating the entire biosphere of Redhook, along with all the colonists.. Dr. Tolman had better find a cure soon, because now he's caught it too.
