Resumen del Editor

Dr. Isobel Fallon thinks she's found a treatment that will help her son and others suffering from Milani Syndrome, a rare neurological disorder. What she doesn't realize is that harvesting the source of this treatment in the only accessible place on Earth it grows, a coral reef in the Nlaan Islands, is going to have consequences far beyond the disruption of the fragile ecosystem on one small reef.

CDC researcher Nadine Parker and her team are baffled. Lukas Behn’s daughter Kyndra has contracted a bizarre new virus that leaves her screaming in pain. But they can't identify any physical, biological source for that pain, not in Kyndra, nor in the dozens, then hundreds, and finally millions of children worldwide succumbing to the same virus. And no one seems to have made a connection between what's happening with the infected children and the events on a small coral reef in the South Pacific.

Eventually, Nadine has to face the unlikely truth and the enormous implications of it. The children aren't sick, they're changing. But will anyone else believe her?

Great listen!

I truly enjoyed this book. The premise is intriguing and really gets you thinking. I highly recommend this one!

Pandemic

This book is not what I was expecting, but I loved it! A deadly pandemic that affects preteens. Once lively children suddenly faint, go into coma, and some die. When they awaken, they are never the same again. The author did an excellent job with world building and character development. Each person feels real. You can see their daily lives and struggles. She did an excellent job portraying a parent’s heart ache, human prejudices, and wide range of emotions. I was hoping to find a sequel, or more by this author. The narration was excellent. I received a free copy of this audiobook and am voluntarily leaving my review.

Timely and Excellent

I have left only 2 reviews since I began listening to audio books in 2007. I'm a reader not a writer.
This was a delicious story that enchanted me over and over. The descriptions bring you into the moment vividly. I loved the way she associated cooking terms and southern culture. The narrator is also excellent.
The story is new and mysterious. I hope to read more by this author.

What a unique story

Each time I thought I knew what came next, I was wrong. It held my interest until the end

The possibility that this could happen.

Well thought out and researched. Enjoyed the “What if” factor. An eye opener. We need to consider what we are doing to the planet.
