Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Temperance Brennan, like her creator Kathy Reichs, is a brilliant, sexy forensic anthropologist called on to solve the toughest cases. But for Tempe, the discovery of a young girl's skeleton in Acadia, Canada, is more than just another assignment. Évangéline, Tempe's childhood best friend, was also from Acadia. Named for the character in the Longfellow poem, Évangéline was the most exotic person in Tempe's eight-year-old world. When Évangéline disappeared, Tempe was warned not to search for her, that the girl was "dangerous."

Thirty years later, flooded with memories, Tempe cannot help wondering if this skeleton could be the friend she lost so many years ago. And what is the meaning of the strange skeletal lesions found on the bones of the young girl?

Meanwhile, Tempe's beau, Ryan, investigates a series of cold cases. Three girls dead. Four missing. Could the New Brunswick skeleton be part of the pattern? As Tempe draws on the latest advances in forensic anthropology to penetrate the past, Ryan hunts down a serial predator.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - first read for a fan of the TV show - not impressed
I was hooked on the TV show ever since the FBI guy said to Brennan, " you be Skully to my Mulder ". So when I started reading this book I was of course shocked to find that the universe of the books is nothing like the TV universe. I won't explain all the differences here, they are well known to the readers. This story is not very interesting. The writing starts out really good, and then deteriorates. By the end I just wanted it to be over.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 'bones'
very different from the TV series...
enjoying books very much, but cannot
compare novels' characters to those
portrayed in show--(apples to oranges)
the entertainment value of the TV
series is greater, but writing of
books is well done, worth reading.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - good book
this was a shocker because I watch the show bones and had never read a book by Kathy. It was a great book but dont expect the characters to be anything like the show. good smooth read.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - bone tickling read
well worth a read. started and could not put it down till it was finished



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Bones to ashes
I would recommend this book withsome reservations. I have read several of Kathy Reichs' books and this is not the best one of her writtings. It is very informative with regard to the history of New Brunswick(sp)and the Acadian people.Temperence Brennan obsessed about her childhood friend a little too much. It was not one of her better books in my opinion.
