About this listen

The inspiration for the hit Fox series Bones, Kathy Reichs explores another high-stakes crime from today's headlines, in a case that lands forensic anthropologist Tempe Brennan in the middle of a gruesome international scheme.

Summoned to South Carolina to fill in for a negligent colleague, Tempe is stuck teaching at a lackluster archeology field school in the ruins of a Native American burial ground on the Charleston shore. But when Tempe stumbles upon a fresh skeleton among the ancient bones, her old friend Emma Rousseau, the local coroner, persuades Tempe to stay on and help with the investigation. When Emma reveals a disturbing secret, it becomes more important than ever for Tempe to help her friend close the case.

The body count begins to climb. Tempe follows the trail to a free street clinic with a belligerent staff, a suspicious doctor, and a donor who is a charismatic televangelist. Clues abound in the most unlikely places as Tempe uses her unique knowledge and skills to build her case, even as the local sheriff remains dubious and her own life is threatened.

I have read or listened to all of Kathy Reichs books and I enjoy the TV show "Bones". This was a great story , but the reader's voice was a mis-match. She was doing (or actually had) a soft southern drawl. Sometimes her words ran together and sometimes her voice got too soft.

Good story, not so good reading

Did not like this narrator as well as the ones on other temperance books- too breathy, more suitable to romance novels

Liked the southern sayings

I enjoy the “Bones” books and was unhappy when I realized I’d bought the abridged version by mistake. Once I started to listen though, I was glad the audio book would be abbreviated. The narrator’s odd way of speaking and of mispronouncing so many common words and phrases just ruined the listening experience. I listen to a lot of books and enjoy a variety of narration styles . This narrator was the worst I’ve ever heard.

Liked the book. Narrator was awful
