(2) YA In 1877 Texas, Willie Wilcox must track her deadbeat father through dangerous desert--crawling with bloodthirsty, disease-infected humans called "shakes"--and recover money he's stolen. The ever-imminent presence of the shakes not only fuels dramatic tension but also helps define the alternate history and the disturbingly familiar fear and corruption amidst an epidemic. Short chapters keep things moving in this absorbing Western/"infected" hybrid tale.
