Started out pretty good, got bogged down and finally jumped to end just to finish it.

A good - but not great - biological terrorist novel, written before biological terrorism was the possibility it is now. Worth a read.
Set in Ireland. A very dark story of a man who, in order to avenge the death of his wife and children who were killed by an IRA bomber, creates a virus that kills only women.
A car bomb explodes on a crowded Dublin street...and an American scientist whose wife and children are killed plots a revenge so total that it staggers the imagination. Molecular scientist John Roe O'Neill unleashes a synthesized plague that kills only women. Unstoppable, selective and invariably fatal, it spells the doom of all mankind...
Scary especially with the plague involved.
Heavy summer reading that is addictive! Good climax!
A plague is released that kills only women.
Our story opens with the death of the wife and children of brilliant biochemical researcher John O'Neill at the hands of terrorists. O'Neil is driven mad with grief and unleashes a biochemically engineered plague on the world, one that is 100% fatal to women.
Realistic enough to horrify.
