Summary
Fourteen-year-old Tory Brennan is as fascinated by bones and dead bodies as her famous aunt, acclaimed forensic anthropologist, Tempe Brennan. However living on a secluded island off Charleston in South Carolina there is not much opportunity to put her knowledge to the test. Until her and her ragbag group of technophile friends stumble across a shallow grave containing the remains of a girl who has been missing for over thirty years.
The question is, did whoever was responsible for the girl's death have anything to do with the sick puppy they rescued from a secret laboratory on the same island? With the cold-case murder suddenly hot, Tory realises that they are involved in something fatally dangerous. But events take a turn for the bizarre when they escape some would-be attackers by using physical powers more akin to a dog than a human... Could the puppy hold the key not only to the murder, but also the strange changes that are taking place in their bodies?

Virals - Good - but not what I was expecting
What made the experience of listening to Virals the most enjoyable?
This is undoubtedly a good story, although not a gritty or dark as Reich's regular characters. Instead of falling into the comfortable set of characters, Reich seems to opt for an entrance into what feel a little like teen fiction - at least with teens as the main characters. This concept is still better than sparkly vampires, but feels like the same genre
What did you like best about this story?
Compelling read, enjoyable characters, interesting plot line. Luckly I like Sci-fi or this might have been a surprise
What about Cristin Milioti’s performance did you like?
Well voiced and differentiated voices.
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I mostly felt surprised of the Sci-fi element of this novel.

adventures for teenagers
Modern and quirky this novel has humour wit and adventure.If any people have a memory of ENID BLYTON and her secret seven and famous five stories you can perhaps compare the modern day Kathy Reichs to her with teen speak and todays culture very much to the core , It is a fantasy that is sharp and fast ENJOYABLY refreshing from vampires

I read this as a Tempe fan ....
It's aimed at Teens but I wasn't disappointed in it. Same expressive prose and attention to detail. story line more fanciful but I can imagine it would be a real hit with my daughter too.

A good book for all listeners
A good book by Kathy Reichs designed for YA but great for adults too. A great murder mystery with a twist. Highly recommended

Edge of your seat stuff!
I was a bit dubious about Kathy Reiches 'young adult' series, I'm a huge fan of the Temperance Brennan books, and didn't think that 'dumbed down' adventure would be for me. How wrong I was! The story is brilliant full of all the thrills and twists I love, I though the Virus would be a little far fetched, but it fits and works!
