They Thought His Common Cold Was an Apocalyptic Plague

What happens when a human's common cold is mistaken for an apocalyptic bio-weapon?

When Ambassador Mark Stone arrives at the pristine, sterile Galactic Citadel, he's a biological curiosity. But when he lets out a single, simple sneeze, the entire station goes into lockdown. The aliens are in a panic, and Mark is declared Patient Zero of a "Level-10 Plague."

Locked in quarantine, the "Deathworlder" is now the galaxy's most wanted. But when a delicate alien liaison catches the cold and begins to die, the Citadel's doctors are helpless. Their only hope lies with the one being on the station who isn't a "pathogen," but an "antidote."
