Goodreads Summary:
Readers of Kathy Reichs's cool and clever first forensic thriller Déjà Dead will recognize the ironic voice of Tempe (short for Temperance) Brennan, the North Carolina-born scientist who winds up working at the Laboratoire de Médicine Légale in Montreal. Here she bristles at the conservative attitudes of some of her Canadian colleagues.
Despite the cold weather, Tempe's workload quickly becomes heavy: the bones of a long-dead nun now up for sainthood have been moved and tampered with; a deadly house fire turns out to be arson; and a university teaching assistant disappears after joining a cult. Tempe must figure out where (and why) all the bodies are buried in the hard Canadian ground. Her investigations take her home to North Carolina, and to a strange colony living on an offshore island.
Review:
Like the first book, this book took alot of concentrating with all of the details, thus taking me longer to read than most. It's not too gory, and that is saying something cause I'm not fond of most kind of gore. Some parts were a little to similar to the first book, which kind of annoyed me. There were also some things just seem like it would never ever happen and was a bit out there. But it was alright. If you are someone who likes the TV show Bones, I recommend this. Now it is nothing like the show but it is still pretty good.
