Megan's novel, THE FEVER, was inspired by an outbreak of odd symptoms among a group of girls in Le Roy, NY a few years ago. Here is a video from THE TODAY SHOW.
The consensus, which took a while to shake out, was the girls suffered from conversion disorder. Of course, the novel goes off in its own direction.
Here are the tour dates in case Megan is in your part of the country. Or in case you have a friend or relative there.

Comgratulations to Megan and I hope she sells a million copies. Sorry we had to decline the invitation for tonight.
Jeff M.
Congratulations to Megan!!!
Megan's THE FEVER is a Summer Pick for GOOD HOUSEKEEPING. And yesterday THE FEVER was discussed on NPR's ON POINT "Summer Reading" program. That's a lot of Good Buss!
I plan on attending the event here in Houston.
My library's copy arrived yesterday. There are a few holds for the library system's copies.
I'm sorry her tour doesn't come further west, such as to Portland. I have a copy waiting at Powell's.
They seem to have swapped some west coast stops for east coast ones. Who knows why. She'll be at Bouchercon if you get down there.
Not able to go to Bouchercon this year, but I'm looking forward to reading the book.
Congrats to Megan. Strangely, I just watched a documentary on that outbreak last week.
