Description
In The Rule of 72 a group of billionaires join forces to pool their wealth in a charitable foundation called 'the Eleventh Hour' with the objective of tackling the World's environmental problems. But are they acting for the common good, or are they simply on a crusade to make their own lives better?
A mystery virus emerges in the Far East and soon becomes a Global Pandemic. People die in their millions, borders are closed and the world starts to seize up.
Panic ensues as Governments scramble to stop the disease spreading. Conspiracy theorists claim that the virus is man-made and has been released intentionally in an effort to cull the global population.
Help is at hand though; the billionaires club develop an effective vaccine, which is gratefully accepted by desperate Nations around the World.
This vaccine will definitely stop the spread of the disease. However hidden within its genome lurks another, secret ingredient, - a pathogen specially designed to solve the World's environmental problems once and for all, rendering the Rule of 72 irrelevant.

Person
C. C. Taylor graduated from London's City University before embarking on a career in investment banking. He is an accredited psychometric evaluator and says that this and his many experiences in the hair-trigger world of money dealing have helped to ensure his writing is fresh, fast-paced and hard-hitting. After thirty years in finance, he embarked on his second career, in writing. He lives in Surrey with his wife, Julia. They have three children.
