Opis

Tory Brennan has a lot on her mind. She must battle an enemy in court, but without the support of her best friend, Ben, who isn't talking to her after a huge argument. And the rest of her Virals gang have problems too, with their unique powers becoming gradually wilder and less stable. But when two of her classmates are kidnapped, and a ransom video shows them held in a terrifying dungeon, Tory decides that enough is enough: now is the time for the Virals to forget their arguments and work together. It's clear that they must use all their powers to solve the crime and rescue the victims before it's too late.

Recenzje

Kathy Reichs excels at the sub-plots that make the characters feel real and keep the story going from one book to another ... a great read and not just for teenagers! crimereview.co.uk

From teaching FBI agents how to detect and recover human remains, to separating and identifying commingled body parts in her Montreal lab, as one of only seventy-seven forensic anthropologists ever certified by the American Board of Forensic Anthropology, Dr Kathy Reichs has brought her own dramatic work experience to her mesmerising forensic thrillers. For years she consulted to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in North Carolina, and continues to do so for the Laboratoire de Sciences Judiciaires et de Médecine Légale for the province of Québec. Kathy Reichs has travelled to Rwanda to testify at the UN Tribunal on Genocide, and helped exhume a mass grave in Guatemala. As part of her work at JPAC she aided in the identification of war dead from World War II, Korea, and Southeast Asia.
