Search - When the Wind Blows

QUICK read (just like the cover says) Evil mad scientists, murder, love and young people that fly like angels, what more can you ask for?

Taking a break from his phenomenally successful Alex Cross series, James Patterson's When the Wind Blows is as much child's fantasy as it is an adult nightmare. The novel moves away from the gritty Washington, D.C., setting of the Cross books and follows the daily life of Frannie O'Neill, a Colorado veterinarian. After the mysterious death of her husband several years before, Frannie retreated to an isolated life in her Colorado practice. But a series of bizarre events suddenly disrupts her lonely routine. On a personal level, she is shaken by her new tenant--Kit Harrison. Kit's too handsome and too friendly and he's a hunter (or so Frannie thinks). He's also recovering from a devastating personal tragedy, and, as Frannie eventually learns, he's really an FBI agent using his vacation to follow a crucial lead. But Kit isn't the one that's got Frannie concerned. As she says after stopping her Suburban one night to check out something on the side of the road: "What I saw was way beyond my abilities to imagine, beyond my comprehension, my system of belief, and maybe beyond my ability to communicate right now. The little girl's arms were folded back in a peculiar way, but when she lifted them--feathers fanned out." The girl is Max, and the mystery of her wings leads Frannie and Kit into a massive conspiracy involving secret genetic research and the scientific manipulation of the human species.

this book was a lot better than i imagined it would be. since i'm not really into all that sci-fi stuff and this is about kids with wings, i didn't think i would get into it. but i did. frannie must find a way to save the bird kids and overcome her life of lies.

Good read. Hard to put down.

Top notich - you'll want to try to read it in one sitting ... EXCELLENT

This is a very interesting book. Difficult to put down. It is the first book of a series, I believe, of three books.

Wow, this book is bad. Awkward writing, doubly awkward romance, minimally believable scenario. Could someone explain to me why they didn't go to the press earlier? Or how killing a bunch of high-profile doctors is supposed to help the bad guys stay undercover?

This is a great read...It's the introduction to Max of the Maximum Ride series.

A RE ISSUE OF AN EARLY ONE VERY DIFFERANT FROM THE USUAL

Frannie O'Neill is a talented Colrado veterinarian haunted by her husband's murder. But the course her life is about to change again. After another bizarre killing, Kit Harrison, a troubled and unconventional FBI agent, arrives on her doorstep. And late one night Frannie stumbles upon a strange, astonishing phenomenon.

Her name is Max. Only eleven years old, she will ead Frannie and Kit to uncover one of the most diabolical and inhuman plots of modern science.

Great read. Story is very interesting and a scary.

I loved it! I suggest you read this book before reading "The Lake House" by the same author!
