Search - Grave Secrets (Temperance Brennan, Bk 5)

Another good book that shows Tempe's dedication to telling every victim's story.

I really enjoyed this book! You can read it without reading any of the others (I did) I would suggest it to anyone liking a suspense!

Another excellent book by Kathy Reichs. This one she takes us to South Amercia initially to help identify bodies from a mass grave in a villiage. These are 'Disappeared' people. While there she ends up getting pulled into a murder investigation to identify a young woman. And of course this leads her back to Canada. The mysteries abound in this one and all appear to tangle together at one point or another.

This book is a fast and great read. I never imagined myself reading this type of book but I heard a lot of good reviews and now I know why. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves those CSI shows or loves murder mystery books.
