Inhaltsangabe

In the opening scene of Kathy Reichs s 206 Bones, Tempe Brennan regains consciousness and discovers
that she is in some kind of very small, very dark, very cold enclosed space. She is bound, hands to feet, and
there s something the matter with her ankle. She begins, slowly, to remember.
Tempe and Lieutenant Ryan had accompanied recently discovered remains the heiress had been missing
for over a year from Montreal to the Chicago morgue to be returned to the family. Suddenly, Tempe is
accused of mishandling the autopsy and the case. Someone has made an incriminating phone call. Within
hours, the one man who knows who made the call is dead, and Tempe is in the dark. Who wants Tempe
dead, or at least out of the way, and why?
With deft assurance, Reichs weaves between the stories of the old case of the heiress Rose Jurmain and a
new case that may or may not be related. She conveys the incredible devastation that would occur if a
forensic colleague through incompetence or design sabotaged Tempe s work in the laboratory.
The chemistry between Tempe and Ryan is better than ever, and the suspense is fiercely intense in this
twelfth novel from increasingly successful Reichs.

Carolina at Charlotte, Dr. Reichs now divides her time between Charlotte and Montreal. Déjà Dead, her
