Book 1: Virals

Virals by Kathy Reichs

Tory Brennan has had some serious bad luck.  Her mother has just died, she's had to move in with a father she didn't know existed, and she now lives on a remote island off the coast of Charleston where she doesn't fit in with the elite students at her new school.  The only good thing she's got going is discovering that she's the great niece of Temperance Brennan, the world famous forensic scientist, which explains her knack for exploring and digging for evidence.  One day Tory is doing just that with her three island buddies when she stumbles across an old military dog tag.  The foursome decides that the only way to determine its owner is to break into the local research institute.  They are hoping to just clean the dog tag.  That's it.  They don't plan on finding a research project that will forever alter their DNA.  They don't plan on trying to solve a forty year old murder.  They don't plan on running for their lives and not knowing who to trust.  Looks like Tory's bad luck just became worse. . .
