Great book you may have missed

From Library Journal: "Imagine an episode of 24 written by Robin Cook, and you've got a pretty good idea of Swierczynski's second novel. Two parts adrenaline rush, one part medical thriller, this twisted story starts with a bang and rarely slows down. In an airport bar, Jack Eisley meets a beautiful blonde who slips some poison into his drink, but that's hardly the worst of it. Hours later, she infects him with a deadly virus containing a tracking device. As a result, Eisley must remain within ten feet of another person at all times or else risk a fatal cerebral implosion. Every time that Eisley thinks he's hit rock bottom, things just continue getting worse. To the rescue comes Mike Kowalski, a member of an ultrasecret wing of the Department of Homeland Security, who has been sent to locate the blonde before she further spreads the deadly virus. Full of offbeat characters, excruciatingly reckless twists, and sardonic humor, this fun ride shows great promise for a rising author."
