Bones to Ashes

Resumen del libro

The skeleton is that of a young girl, no more than fourteen years old and forensic anthropologist Dr Temperance Brennan is struggling to keep her emotions in check.

A nagging in her subconscious won't let up. A memory triggered, deep in her hindbrain the disappearance of a childhood friend; no warning, no explanation

Detective Andrew Ryan is working a series of parallel cases, and requires Tempe's forensic expertise. Three missing persons, three unidentified bodies all female, all early-to-mid teens... Could Tempe's skeleton be yet another in this tragic line of young victims? Or is she over-reacting, making connections where none exist?

Working on instinct, Tempe takes matters into her own hands. But she couldn't have predicted where this investigation would lead, or the horrors it would eventually uncover Can Tempe maintain a professional distance as the past catches up with her in this, her most deeply personal case yet?
