About the Book

A woolly mammoth - hidden for millennia, untouched by time - is found as the Siberian ice thaws.The scientists who discover the prehistoric creature will finally have answers to questions long evading science for centuries.

Years later a strange infectious disease explodes across China. Dr. Cole Patrick and members of The World Health Organization security team are urgently summoned to track down the unknown pathogen.

Before leaving on his expedition the strange illness hits home, infecting a member of Dr. Patrick's family. Racing against time, Cole Patrick investigates into a mysterious Chinese bio-engineering corporation who may be linked to the outbreak. The closer he comes to discovering the truth about the infection the more he realizes the dangers facing humanity and the possibility of a global extinction, the same event that saw the demise of the woolly mammoth over 5000 years ago.

  • I believe the best science fiction is rooted in science reality. And while Mammoth is a work of fiction, the science in it is very, very real. This book tells a story that could be happening today, with today's science, today's politics, and today's flawed people at the center. There is no "chosen one" to save us... no silver bullets... and no neat and tidy way for humankind to put the genie back in the bottle. That realism of characters, story, and science is what made this one of my favorite reads for 2016. A compelling read that has me still thinking and googling weeks later. - Gramslam
  • ★★★★★ Unique and full of originality. ...I think that the whole paleontological pathogen concept is brilliant (especially considering there's plenty of factual science blended in) and even more so, it's all expressed through a very vivid, visually rich writing style. - Lucidity
  • ★★★★ Great debut novel! I really enjoyed this novel and found that the story moves at a good pace and the action builds consistently. I found that a lot of characters were introduced early in the book and it was initially a challenge to figure out who I should be invested in, but as the story progressed I got more into it and really felt for the characters and what they were going through by the end. Dewar does a good job of telling this story and definitely did his research... - Mary

Blending scientific fact with fiction, the story takes the reader from the desolate landscape of Northern Russia to the offices of the World Health Organization in Washington D.C., from the remains of an American civil war fort in Boston to the streets of Beijing, as it races forward, all while keeping the brain in high gear.
