Chasing Secrets by Gennifer Choldenko

3.0

Loses a star for some confusing wording and a lackluster ending, but overall a very good book that offers up some perspectives unique to children's literature. Readers are treated to an exciting and often frightening tale of medical mystery about the plague outbreak of 1900 (which I had never even heard of), along with an unapologetic presentation of the harsh prejudices faced by Chinese-Americans of the time.
