Along with the corpses, Tempe investigates the sick moral logic of the mastermind behind the operation. This is a phenomenally high stakes business where one dead body can save a couple of lives, maybe more. If he does, Tempe will have to juggle him and Detective Galiano, an old flame, who is in town investigating the disappearance of a wealthy young woman. Ryan is in Montreal, though he may come down for a visit. What is going on and who is to blame? The charismatic televangelist who oversees the clinic? The shady doctor who practices there? Or is it the clinic staff? The skeleton leads her to a free street clinic where patients have begun to go missing, and some have wound up dead.
She’s the expert they might have called in, but lucky for the police she’s already there. When she stumbles upon a recent skeleton among the ancient bones, she starts asking questions. Tempe Brennan is stuck teaching an archaeology field school for students at UNCC in Charleston, South Carolina.
When a recent skeleton among ancient bones raises questions-and danger-forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan is the only one who can solve the case in this “triumphant second appearance” ( Publishers Weekly) from #1 New York Times bestselling author Kathy Reichs.
