A plane crashes high in the mountains of North Carolina. But a severed foot is discovered a good distance from the crash site. Forensic anthropologist Dr Temperance Brennan is first on the scene. Her task is a sickening one, and her investigation seems to be raising more questions than answers. But when Tempe starts asking dangerous questions, her professional standing is threatened. Convinced that another corpse lies in the woods, Tempe pits herself against a conspiracy of silence – and uncovers a shocking tale of deceit and depravity.
The TV show ‘Bones’ is based on Kathy Reichs books.
