The Fever

Small-town high school, mysterious illness, family secrets.

If psychological thrillers with a touch of mystery grab you, "The Fever" should be on your list. Megan Abbott expertly weaves an atmosphere of paranoia and small-town drama, as a reputedly stable family faces the chaos of an inexplicable disease. The way Abbott explores the dark facets of desire and fear against the backdrop of teenage life might just make this the book that keeps you up at night, questioning what you thought you knew about the people closest to you.

Description

In this impossible-to-put-down "panic attack of a novel," a small-town high school becomes the breeding ground for a mysterious illness. Deenie Nash is a diligent student with a close-knit family; her brother Eli is a hockey star, and her father is a popular teacher. But when Deenie's best friend is struck by a terrifying, unexplained seizure in class, the Nashes' seeming stability dissolves into chaos. As rumors of a hazardous outbreak spread through school, and hysteria and contagion swell, a series of tightly held secrets emerges, threatening to unravel friendships, families, and the town's fragile sense of security. The Fever is a chilling story about guilt, lies, and the lethal power of desire.
