Publisher Description

The gripping Temperance Brennan novel from world-class forensic anthropologist Kathy Reichs, the international #1 bestselling crime thriller writer and the inspiration behind the hit TV series Bones.

In the searing heat of Guatemala, Dr Tempe Brennan must harden herself against the horrors she excavates.

And then four young girls go missing from Guatemala City. . .

When a skeleton is found at the back of a rundown hotel, only someone with Tempe's expertise can deduce the identity and cause of death.

But as she searches for answers, her path is blocked at every turn. It is clear that some people will stop at nothing to keep Guatemala's secrets buried.

Good, not the best

I read Brennan books 1-3, accidentally skipped 4 and went straight to this one. Not the best of the books I've read so far from Kathy Reichs, this one seemed overly and necessarily convoluted. I expected since this book was set in Guatemala, that would be the complete setting of the story. Not entirely sure why this ended up back in Canada save for the very shaky (and cliched) ambassador connection.

One particular thing that has bugged me about the 4 books that I've read, is that in every single one, Dr. Brennan ends up finding herself in some sort of danger. Is Kathy Reichs drawing on personal experience here, and the world of forensic anthropology really is that dangerous, or is she trying to raise the characters status to make it seem as though these murders really couldn't be solved without Dr. Brennan, or is the character really that reckless to always put herself in that danger?
