I enjoyed the suspense of this one - it could have ended in one of several different ways and I wasn't able to guess which way it would go. The personal relationships between characters was quite realistic and down to earth.

Temperance Brennan, Forensic Anthropologist, searches through confusing bits of dead bodies to find who killed two bikers and a nine year old girl. "She moves from South to North, and deep into a shattering investigation inside the bizarre culture of outlaw motorcycle gangs - where one misstep could bring disaster for herself or someone she loves. Kathy Reichs' astonishing bestseller pulses with cutting edge scientific know how--and the narrative power of an award winning crime fiction star"

Complicated and interesting plot!

This book has a lot of things familiar with the TV "Bones". Ths series is a great read and Tempe sure likes helping to solve the mystery, even though bones are her field.

Dark as are all of Kathy Reichs' books. If you're looking for the Bones that appears on TV - this isn't it. What it is, is a masterful forensic thriller written as only an ex-forensic anthropologist could do it.

Another good book. This one revoloved around motorcycle gangs and Tempe's nephew Kit. I found this one less grisley than her first. And a quick read overall.

This one was just okay for me. I'm not really sure about this series. I enjoy the TV show, Bones, but the books are nothing like the show. I find the books hard to read and follow with all of the medical/scientific descriptions whereas the show is better at "dumbing" things down for lay people. Just not my favorite.

These books are nothing like the TV series, although I now enjoy both. I like that there is a French connection - I get to read the French and know what it says before the translation - although there is not too much French. The mystery is great - sure there is murder and mayhem - but it is more about putting the pieces together than gore. You also get to learn about a lot science and procedure - very interesting stuff, especially when it is not in a textbook!

This particular one was not one of my favorite. It jumped around a lot and it is starting to get a little clichéd that Tempe always has a relative who gets caught up in what ever she happens to be investigating.
