A string of disturbing cases has put her vacation plans on hold; instead, she heads to the lab to analyze charred remains from a suspicious fire, and a mysterious black residue from a small plane crash. But most troubling of all are the bones. Even more disturbing is the fact that bones turns up on a family picnic in North Carolina--but are they animal or human? X-rays and DNA may link the crimes, but they can't reveal who is closing in on Tempe and her family. And how far they will go to keep her from uncovering the truth?<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Fascinating." -- <i>The New York Times</i><br><br>"Right up there with Patricia Cornwell's early Kay Scarpetta mysteries." -- <i>Booklist</i><br><br>"Fascinating." -- "The New York Times"<br><br>"Fascinating." -- "The New York Times" <BR><br><br>"Sunday Tribune" (U.K.) Scalpel-sharp....Suspense-filled.<br><br>"The New York Times" Fascinating...every minute in the morgue with Tempe is golden.<br><br>"Booklist"<P>Right up there with Patricia Cornwell's early Kay Scarpetta mysteries.<P><br><br>"Fascinating."<P>-- "The New York Times"<P><br><br>"Fascinating."<P>-- "The New York Times" <P><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Kathy Reichs's first novel <i>Déjà Dead</i>, published in 1997, won the Ellis Award for Best First Novel and was an international bestseller. <i> Cold, Cold Bones</i> is Kathy's twenty-first entry in her series featuring forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan.
