NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
The evidence is irrefutable: In sixteen New York Times bestsellers
over the course of as many years, Kathy Reichs has proven herself "a
genius at building suspense" (New York Daily News). In forensic
anthropologist Temperance Brennan, Reichs has created a detective
fiction heroine who's brilliant to the bone. "Every minute in the morgue
with Tempe is golden," says The New York Times Book Review. In the
acclaimed author's thrilling new novel, Brennan is at the top of her
game in a battle of wits against the most monstrous adversary she has
ever encountered.
Unexpectedly called in to the Charlotte PD's Cold Case Unit, Dr.
Temperance Brennan wonders why she's been asked to meet with a homicide
cop who's a long way from his own jurisdiction. The shocking answer: Two
child murders, separated by thousands of miles, have one thing in
common--the killer. Years ago, Anique Pomerleau kidnapped and murdered a
string of girls in Canada, then narrowly eluded capture. It was a
devastating defeat for her pursuers, Brennan and police detective Andrew
Ryan. Now, as if summoned from their nightmares, Pomerleau has
resurfaced in the United States, linked to victims in Vermont and North
Carolina. When another child is snatched, the reign of terror promises
to continue--unless Brennan can rise to the challenge and make good on
her second chance to stop a psychopath.
But Brennan will have to draw her bitter ex-partner out of exile, keep
the local police and feds from one another's throats, and face more than
just her own demons as she stalks the deadliest of predators into the
darkest depths of madness.
In Bones Never Lie, Kathy Reichs never fails to satisfy readers
looking for psychological suspense that's more than skin-deep.
Don't miss Kathy Reichs's short story "Swamp Bones" in the back of
the book.
