Description
Flash and Bones by Kathy Reichs is the fourteenth novel in the acclaimed Temperance Brennan series, following the forensic anthropologist as she navigates a dark and dangerous investigation in Charlotte, North Carolina. When a human hand is discovered in a barrel of asphalt beside a racetrack during a major event, Tempe Brennan is immediately drawn into a high-stakes forensic puzzle. Her efforts are frustrated when the FBI confiscate and destroys the evidence, leaving her with a chilling dead end. The case deepens when a young engineer alerts her to the disappearance of his sister and her boyfriend twelve years earlier, and Tempe begins to piece together a connection between past and present. But the stakes escalate dramatically when the engineer is found crushed under a race car, signalling that someone is willing to kill to keep the truth hidden. Combining Reichs’ signature forensic detail with suspenseful plotting, Flash and Bones delivers a tense, fast-paced thriller that will appeal to readers of procedural mysteries and forensic crime fiction.
Fans of dark, clever, and methodical investigations will find Tempe Brennan at her relentless best.
