This turns out to be the first in a series. The mystery is rather pedantic and predictable, but the characters and the setting (not just the place but the culture) is captivating. A great sojourn in a world new to me. I am about to order more books in the series.
I have now started Extreme Makeover, another science fiction yarn for young adults by Henry Melton. Deena, shy and fat, nearly has a tree fall on her--she is caught by one of the branches and nanobots, recognizing that the part of the tree they were in was no longer viable, fled to her body. They are now working to understand and control her.
