Seven Days (The Archie Curwen Chronicles) J. D. Hyman Second edition

Archie Curwen is your typical misguided teen with a troubled past and an attitude to match. Life in the rural town of Madison, Ohio has always been simple. That is, until the power disappears across town, and a string of mysterious events shatters the relative peace. Archie and his two best friends, JP and Addison, soon discover that a deadly virus outbreak is affecting their community. Confined to a citywide quarantine, the trio eventually learn the horrifying extent of the virus. The situation escalates rapidly when a national response is triggered that may lead to the ultimate destruction of everything they hold dear. With only seven days to find answers and render justice, the friends are thrust into a fight against time, the truth, and their lives.
