The Body Finder by Kimberly Derting



Summary

High school junior Violet uses her uncanny ability to sense murderers and their victims to try to stop a serial killer who is terrorizing her town, and although her best friend and would-be boyfriend Jay promises to keep her safe, she becomes a target.

Mrs. Lassley's Review: 4 1/2 Stars

The title of this book worried me at first, but the longer I read it the more interested I became. Violet is just a normal high school girl who is in love with her best friend, but does not want him to know it yet. What is different about Violet is that she is called to things that have been murdered. This does not amount to much more then mice and birds that have been killed by cats, but when a serial killer starts killing girls and leaving their bodies around her town, it is up to Violet to help find the killer. This book not only had the romantic element but the scary element as well, which is rare for a book. I would recommend this book to anyone who wanted to read an unusual book and that was just plain awesome!!
