I really enjoyed reading "The Malthus Conspiracy" by Danielle Uidam. The book is based on 'An Essay on the Principal of Population' written in 1798 by Economist Reverend Thomas Malthus. College students Dean Adams and his best friend Felix Pye, unwillingly stumble across the greatest conspiracy in history, and by doing so sign a death warrant. While working on a college paper Dean and Felix find information about a company who is willing to kill millions on innocent people to curb population growth. With the help of detective Isabella Mercena, Dean and Felix set out to stop the bad guys and expose the league's sinister plans to control the population. Ralph Scalary helps Isabella, Dean, and Felix break into Shutlam's headquarters to get more information about the company. Will Ralph, Isabella, Dean, and Felix survive the ordeal? Will they get anyone to believe the conspiracy theory? How many people will it take to bring the bad guys down? How many innocent people will lose their life?I believe this story would make a great action, mystery, suspense, and thriller movie. The story is well written, researched, and thought provoking. It was kind of a slow start but later it was hard to put down. I was on the edge of my seat until the very end. I rooted for Isabella, Dean, and Felix to make if out alive. I wanted the bad guys to be stopped. The book was set up to go from one point of view to another and the chapters were not very long. I also liked how the author went from the past to the present throughout the book. Even though this was a work of fiction I could see this really happening in today's society. I felt like I was actually a part of the story and was walking in the characters shoes. I will recommend this book to friends and family. I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review
