The Waking Dark / Robin Wasserman / 454 pages

"They called it The Killing Day.  Twelve people dead, in the space of a few hours.  5 murderers.  All of them so normal.  All of them seemingly harmless, all of them dead by their own hand...except one.  And that one has no answers to offer the shattered town.  She doesn't even know why she killed - or whether she'll do it again."  When a tornado strikes Oleander, Kansas, the killing begins again with renewed vengeance.  The town is sealed off from the outside world and armed soldiers guard its borders.  Who or what has caused this mayhem?  Can West, a football player; Jule, daughter of meth addicts; Cass, one of the murderers, and Ellie save the day?  This is an intriguing page-turner, thought-provoking and fear-inspiring.
