Virals / Kathy Reichs / 454 pages

Wow!  This book is awesome!!  Written by Kathy Reichs, creator of the Fox television hit "Bones" and author of 12 books in the Temperance Brennan series upon which the series is based, Virals is non-stop action!  Four "boat kids" so-called because they have to ferry to school every day because they live with their parents on a research island owned by the University of South Carolina, discover dog tags in the woods, rescue a sick wolfdog pup, catch a virus from the dog, and become virals - a pack with super powers and a dark secret.  They solve a forty year old murder and one much more recent.  This is Ms. Reich's first novel for young readers and hopefully not her last.
