recognising the hantavirus threat 3 years before it hit the headlines!

'Imperfectly Innocent" finds Harry beset with a host of problems. One of his people is dead, another arrested, and his boss, who has disappeared, is accused of treason. There is evidence but facts are one thing, interpretation is another matter entirely. Trust can leave you very alone and exposed, and doubt has a habit of contaminating anything it can touch,
