There are 206 bones in the human body. Forensic anthropologists know them intimately and can use them to reconstruct every kind of violent end. NY Times bestselling author Kathy Reichs, like her fictional creation, Temperance Brennan, is a forensic anthropologist for the province of Quebec. Tempe finds herself regaining consciousness in some kind of very small, very dark, very cold enclosed space-bound, hands to feet. This complex, riveting tale unfolds, proving once again that Reichs is the dominant talent in forensic mystery writing.
