Seemingly random incidents and crimes -- forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan finds herself deep in it from eyeballs to mummified corpse to carbon monoxide poisoning.
Winter brings snow to North Carolina when Tempe's daughter, Katy, finally leaves the Army and returns home. Ryan is out of the country and Slidell is still working with the CMPD cold case unit. After a chilling discovery on her front porch, Tempe notices that clues lead to another very odd find in the privy at a private school. It's not until a few other weird occurrences that Tempe starts to see that each of the cases is similar to ones she has been involved with in the past. It seems that someone is going through a lot of effort to get her attention.
This, the 21st installment in a very popular and entertaining series, wasn't the most fascinating of all, but I like the characters, their interactions, and the snarky humor in the story. The plot can best be described as a revenge story, and there are a lot of suspects to track and details to follow. I'm a fan of both crime and medical thrillers, so these books always hit the sweet spot. Pretty sure most readers also have followed the hit show, "Bones" which is based and adapted from the novels. I feel that it is best to read from the beginning as this doesn't seem like it would work very well as a start point or standalone.
Thank you to NetGalley and Scribner for this e-book ARC to read, review, and recommend.
This is part of a series that should be read from the beginning in order.
Genre - crime/medical thriller
