Publisher Description
Jenna Blake, a freshman in college, wants to be a doctor like her mother. Unfortunately, she has a deep dislike of blood and an even deeper fear of doing harm to someone. Her father suggests an unusual option-medical examiner. Although Jenna finds the idea disgusting, she decides to go for an interview at the campus hospital. Part of the interview involves witnessing an autopsy. What she learns there draws her into a medical mystery with political ramifications. Unsure who she can trust, Jenna fights to discover the source of a new and lethal disease. But in her determination to find the truth, she makes herself the target of a sinister killer. Her only hope is to outsmart this ruthless shadowy figure. Body Bags offers an intelligent, believable young woman while building suspense to a fever pitch. Narrator Julie Dretzin perfectly captures Jenna's courageous spirit.

"I really liked the characters and setting of this book. Medical mysteries and forensic science are so interesting, but... The mystery itself was lacking. There weren't any suspects to pick from. I may try one more in the series. 3.5 or 3.75 rounded up to 4 for rating purposes."
— Jenna (4 out of 5 stars)

" So far this book has grabbed my attention and pulled me in from page one. I cannot put this book down! "
— Mooneen, 6/13/2013 -
" I still feel that the chief protagonist seems a little grown up for someone just 18. However, it was an excellent story with great scene descriptions. I couldn't help comparing the mental imagery of the ME in a wheelchair with TV's Dr House. "
— Doris, 7/7/2012 -
" Becoming a diener while in college seems a little bizzare to me, but I did like the story. "
— Sheila, 5/26/2012 -
" You'll need a strong stomach for descriptions of autopsies. "
— Heidi, 3/14/2012 -
" I read this a while ago but truly enjoyed it. Jenna and her friends seem very real. I sort of had to get past her actually getting the job, but decided to just go with it. Jenna is in college so this might appeal to older teens more than tweens "

" After slogging through "literature" all through high school, this was one of the books that made me enjoy reading again. Jenna is Nancy Drew meets Dr. G Medical Examiner. What a fun ride! "
