Reporter Savvy Skye works for a sleazy tabloid. Investigating a stack of nutty calls, she discovers an island in the Mississippi where everything has gone crazy. There's a murder and a mad doctor and a gentic engineering firm and a possible plague of insanity. A very fast, fun read. I'm looking forward to more adventures with Savvy Skye!

5.0 out of 5 stars Savvy returns for another keen adventure 27 Jan 1998

Remeber sitting in front of the TV on Saturday morning and watching Scooby Doo? Sumner's News from the Edge books provide the same kind of chills, fun, and not-quite-unbelievable action in a grown up package. This time spunky tabloid reporter Savvy McKinnon faces a town where everyone has gone insane on the same day. Is it a outbreak of disease, or is it all just a coverup for murder? One thing is certain: Savvy is as full of sly humor and charm as ever. I love her new sidekick!

5.0 out of 5 stars More fun and mystery with Savvy Skye 14 Jan 1998
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Like the first book in the series, this is a mystery book with only a touch of science fiction. In fact, there's so little sci fi in this one that it makes me wonder why anyone would put it on the sci fi shelves. It really doesn't matter. What matters is -- Savvy's back! This time Savvy is out to figure out what's driving a whole town mad. The plot involves poison apples, genetic engineering, the CDC, and a cute coworker with more looks than brains. Savvy continues her wry observations about herself and others. It's funny, breezy, and interesting. A great cosy.
