Symbiote : a novel / Michael Nayak.
"As World War III rages, the scientists in Antarctica are thankful for the isolation--until a group of Chinese scientists arrive at the American research base. In their truck is a dead body--the first murder in Antarctica. The potential for a geopolitical firestorm is great, and, with no clear jurisdiction, the Americans don't know what to do. But they soon realize the Chinese scientists have brought far more with them than the body. Within seventy-two hours, thirteen others lie dead in the snow, murdered in acts of madness and superhuman strength. An extremophile parasite from the truck, triggered by severe cold, is spreading by touch. It is learning from them. Evolving. It triggers violent tendencies in the winter crew, and, more insidiously, the beginnings of a strange symbiotic telepathy"-- Provided by publisher.
