Streams of Babel by Carol Plum-Ucci

The US government becomes suspicious after a few people mysteriously die from brain aneurysms, and they suspect that a terrorist group has poisoned the water supply in a small neighborhood in New Jersey called Trinity Falls. The story follows the viewpoints of 6 teenagers. The story takes place in Trinity Falls and Pakistan. A sixteen year old boy in Pakistan works as a spy for the United States governments and helps to find out who is doing this to the people of Trinity Falls. In all honesty the book was slow at the beginning, but did begin to speed up and get interesting a bit later. This book can be read by high schoolers, but is definitely recommended for middle-school.
