The Body in the Woods

by April Henry
Lexile:  720
Genre:  Mystery

Alexis, Nick and Ruby have only one thing in common - they are all teenage members of Portland's Search and Rescue team.  They think they have signed up to help out with missing people searches, like when a hiker gets lost in the woods.  They are unprepared for the fact that on their first mission, they find a dead body, and it's not for the hiker they were looking for in the first place.  Alexis, Nick, and Ruby find themselves in the spotlight of a murder investigation that they will need to quickly figure out before the killer locates the next victim.
