INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Rees, Celia

The Truth out There

(4) 4-6 In a story with all the trappings of an "X-Files" episode (UFOs, alien abductions, crop circles), a British boy investigates his uncle's supposed death at age thirteen by reading his mother's notes for a book and playing a mysterious computer game. Readers who "want to believe" may be disappointed by the late veer into a problem novel about Asperger's Syndrome, an autistic spectrum disorder.
