Book description
The gripping Temperance Brennan novel from world-class forensic
anthropologist Kathy Reichs, the international no. 1 bestselling
crime thriller writer and the inspiration behind the hit TV series Bones.
When Dr Temperance Brennan is accused of mishandling the autopsy of
a missing heiress, a routine case swiftly turns sinister. But before
Tempe can get to the one man with the information she needs, he turns
up dead.
In Montreal, three elderly women are found murdered, their bodies
brutally discarded. Even though the clues don't add up, Tempe is
certain of a link between their deaths and that of the heiress.
Has Tempe made grave errors, or is she being sabotaged by an unseen
enemy? What is frighteningly clear is that more than just Tempe's
career is at stake. Her life is also at risk.
