Mr. Hypochondriac Jonathan Alan Cortez

A new, deadly virus is plaguing mankind, and Dennis Hightower (better known to his doctor as "Mr. Hypochondriac") not only believes he has the virus but is standing at death's door. Deciding to try and enjoy the remainder of his final days, Dennis Hightower sets out on a final vacation to find joy in the remaining days of his life. As his vacation unfolds in the most unexpected of manner, and he becomes a man wanted by the FBI, Dennis Hightower finds himself ensnared in a government plot to wipe out the majority of the human race, and he may very well be the only one able to stop it. Equal parts societal allegory, thriller, suspense, horror, and dark comedy, Mr. Hypochondriac is a novel exploring society, the human condition, and the true meaning of being hailed a savior.
