YA
Conseula Chavez, a.k.a. Bones, discovers she can remove her human skin and cross over into the Flow. There, a psychopath is stalking the inhabitants, an ethnically diverse cast of teenagers with bizarre powers who save their charges from untimely death. Philosophizing (often more baffling than deep or lyrical) saps some momentum from the romance and serial-killer plot lines.
