Fragile remedy / by Ingrande Mora, Maria,1980-;
The only way sixteen-year-old Nate, a Genetically Engineered Metatissue, can get life-saving medication is to work for a shadowy terrorist organization, which would mean leaving the boy he loves.Nate is a Genetically Engineered Medi-tissue (GEM) created as a cure for the elite from the fatal lung rot ravaging the population. Smuggled out of the laboratory and into the Withers, a quarantined, lawless region, Nate survives by using his engineering skills to fix broken tech in exchange for food or a safe place to sleep. When he meets Reed and his misfit gang of scavengers, Nate finds the family he's always longed for, even if he can't risk telling them what he is. But GEMs have a genetic failsafe-- a flaw that causes their health to rapidly deteriorate as they age unless they are regularly dosed with medication controlled by Gathos City. When violence erupts across the Withers, Nate's illegal supply of medicine is cut off, and he is left with only two options: work for a shadowy terrorist organization that has the means to keep him alive, or stay-- and die-- with the boy he loves. -- adapted from back cover.Grades 10-12.LSC

Square haunting : five lives in London between the wars / by Wade, Francesca,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."In the early twentieth century, Mecklenburgh Square, a hidden architectural gem in the heart of London, was a radical address. On the outskirts of Bloomsbury known for the eponymous group who "lived in squares, painted in circles, and loved in triangles," the square was home to students, struggling artists, and revolutionaries. In the pivotal era between the two world wars, the lives of five remarkable women intertwined at this one address: modernist poet H. D., detective novelist Dorothy L. Sayers, classicist Jane Harrison, economic historian Eileen Power, and author and publisher Virginia Woolf. In an era when women's freedoms were fast expanding, they each sought a space where they could live, love, and above all work independently."--

Blue Labyrinth / by Preston, Douglas J.; Child, Lincoln.;
"A long-buried family secret resurfaces when one of Aloysius Pendergast's most implacable enemies shows up on his doorstep as a murdered corpse. The mystery has all the hallmarks of the perfect murder, save for an enigmatic clue: a piece of turquoise lodged in the stomach of the deceased. The gem leads Pendergast to an abandoned mine on the shore of California's desolate Salton Sea, which in turn propels him on a journey of discovery deep into his family's sinister past. But Pendergast learns there is more at work than a ghastly episode of family history: he is soon stalked by a subtle killer bent on vengeance over an ancient transgression. In short order, Pendergast is caught in a wickedly clever plot, which will leave him stricken in mind and body ... and may well end with his death"--Provided by publisher.
