Editorial Review: Product Description:
"As I was packaging what remained of the dead baby, the man I would kill was burning pavement north toward Charlotte." With this opening sentence, Kathy Reichs serves notice that her heroine, Temperance Brennan, is in for one of her scariest, most gruesome adventures yet. As fans of this popular series already know, Tempe is a forensic anthropologist: an expert in the human form (especially bones) who helps solve crimes. The abovementioned infant is only the first in a series of grisly remains, both human and animal, that Tempe must sort through and decode. Meanwhile, as several seemingly unrelated cases begin to intertwine, her sleuthing puts her in the crosshairs of a very nasty stalker who hides behind an e-mail alias. Reichs knows how to keep the narrative ball rolling with a canny mix of plot developments, character delineation, and scientific detail, all relayed in Tempe's smart, breezy, sarcastic voice. In fact, Bare Bones has a few too many characters and plot lines for Reichs--or most readers--to keep perfect track of. But it's a fun ride anyway, enlivened by some steamy romantic scenes and some fascinating, appalling information about the illicit trade in endangered wildlife (did you know that bears' gall bladders fetch more money per ounce than cocaine?). Bare Bones is a crisp, enjoyable read that cements Kathy Reichs's standing as the best forensic-thriller writer at work today. --Nicholas H. Allison Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Gladly Surprised...I was walking through a book store and the cover of this book interested me. Before this I have never heard of Kathy Reichs, but did follow the "Bones" series and enjoyed them. I started this book and couldn't put it down until I finished the whole thing! I was hooked on her material since...I believe I read 5 out of her 11 novels since. If you enjoy mystery and crime solving, you'll enjoy this and all of Kathy Reichs' novels. Rating: - Triangle CluesOnly Kathy Reichs can plot a suspense mystery from bird feathers, goldenseal and bears then interweave a budding romance for Temperance Brennan. BARE BONES is a can't put down read for fans of this series. The title was the selection for our bookclub this month and it will be fun to discuss. Dr. Brennan is in North Caroline awaiting the arrival of a special friend to share the first vacation she's had in years. She goes to a picnic with her daughter and Boyd, her estranged husband's dog. Boyd ... Read More Rating: - A Super Read!I loved this one! Years ago I read the first two books in Reichs' series and I remember enjoying them, so it was like going home when I picked this one up. In need of relief from reading submissions (I'm a publisher) and this was close at hand. In this installment, Temperance Brennan is due for a vacation and is actually looking forward to it. At the worst possible time, Brennan's job kicks into high gear and bones begin dropping from the sky. And not just from the sky, while at a picnic ... Read More Rating:  - Zero to 183 in no timeI had just finished reading DEADLY DECISIONS by Kathy Reichs and was looking forward to reading BARE BONES, but it was kind of late at night and I thought: :Well, I can start this tomorrow." then after reading the back cover 5 or 6 times I decided to just start it, read a chapter or two and then get into it for real the next day. The next thing I knew I thought I should go to bed because I had to work the next day and I was on page 183. Holy smokes!!! This is the third book I've read in the Temperance ...
