About this listen

 It's the second-to-last day of archaeological field school. The students are working on a prehistoric gravesite on Dewees, a barrier island north of Charleston, South Carolina, when a much more recent burial is uncovered.

The skeleton is articulated, the bone fresh, and the vertebrae still connected by soft-tissue. It's a case forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan has to take. But her investigations soon have her in too deep - her entire view of humanity is challenged, and the further she probes, the more she seems to be putting herself in danger.

Critic reviews

"Reichs's down-to-earth heroine is an appealing creation, who deftly juggles personal problems with professional challenges." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Readers who enjoy Patricia Cornwell's mysteries will appreciate the forensic detail here, and more character-oriented readers will respond to Reichs' likable and well-developed cast, from the local sheriff to Tempe herself, a dedicated woman who feels compelled to provide justice for those who can no longer speak for themselves." ( Booklist)

I enjoyed this book very much. The narrator was very good although not as good as some others I've heard reading previous novels of Kathy Reich. Worth a listen though.

Narration makes Dr Brennan appear weak and stupid when she’s actually a strong, intelligent woman. Disappointing story.

Narration doesn’t give justice to Dr Brennan

Completely wrong narrator for this great book. Ridiculous accents and voices for the characters. Mainly whispering rather than speaking normally.
Painful to listen to. I will try to get a refund.
Otherwise another great story from Kathy Reichs.

Terrible narration
