New Release Today: Virals by Kathy Reichs

Just wanted to remind everyone that the first novel in Kathy Reichs' new YA series, Virals, is out today.  It's a little paranormal, a little forensic, a little thriller... a lot of fantastic. (My review)

I will be heading out to buy it in hardcover today. Yes, I have a paperback ARC, that I begged off a fellow blogger, but this one's a keeper! ...So I wanted to take a minute and encourage you to do the same.   Really, it's worth it!

Summary: Tory Brennan, niece of acclaimed forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan (of the Bones novels and hit TV show), is the leader of a ragtag band of teenage "sci-philes" who live on a secluded island off the coast of Charleston, South Carolina. When the group rescues a dog caged for medical testing on a nearby island, they are exposed to an experimental strain of canine parvovirus that changes their lives forever.


As Tory and her friends discover their heightened senses and animal-quick reflexes, they must combine their scientific curiosity with their new found physical gifts to solve a cold-case murder that has suddenly become very hot –if they can stay alive long enough to catch the killer's scent.


Fortunately, they are now more than friends: they're a pack. They are Virals.
