Bones Never Lie Temperance Brennan Kathy Reichs Books Reviews

Great
The story itself was not bad, but Ms Reichs' overuse of "I kept silent", and,"I said nothing", became annoying. So, good, you know when to keep your mouth shut. Who cares? Please leave out how you wanted to scream and throw things when you're angry. Get on with the story. And, yes, we know you can speak French, so, why not write the entire name of every acronym you use in Quebec? Ask yourself what the,reader cares about. For me, it's the story, quick and snappy. I quit reading Patricia Cornwell because I couldn't stand to hear what the ME was fixing for dinner every night.
A serial killer who disappeared years ago in Canada has reappeared in the United States. Modern data bases, including DNA, allow comparison of profiles and identities. The serial killer has a personal grievance against Temperance Brennan. As the case progresses, and attempts are made to track the killer, some cold cases become hot. Ryan becomes involved, somewhat unwillingly, as he was involved in the original case.

There are many surprises as the case progresses, some rather gruesome. Some descriptions are not for the faint of heart. People performing autopsies earn their pay. The new cases don't really fit the old profile (kidnapping girls for sex and torture). Things don't seem right as there are some surprising developments. There are some side notes about preserving bodies without refrigeration.

Temperance bounces between North Carolina, Quebec, and Vermont (with a side trip to Costa Rica), as various new characters are introduced. Her cat acquires a new friend. The door is left open for new developments in her personal life
As promised.
Mediocre...I liked a couple of Kathy Reiches' earlier books, but it all went downhill from there so I stopped bothering reading her works. Then I cam across a review here on that suggested to give this one a try because it resembles earlier books by this author. I would give it 2.5 stars, but my options are either 2 or 3. Since I managed to finish the book, I am giving it a 3. If you convince yourself that the plot is believable - then you will finish the book, too. You interest in what happens next will be lukewarm, but it will be there. But you will also have a feeling that this book was overinflated just to make volume for a "full size" book. Pages devoted to a cat named Birdie. The side lines about main character's mother and her past lover (and the whole separate story of going to "recover" him to South America) are like - "huh??" The main character is awfully unlikable - meddling, bitchy, overreacting. I don't remember her being this way in earlier books, but then - who knows? - maybe she got this way with age. A lot of unnecessary, watered-down stuff. And the 'twists' were kind of predictable. I pretty much knew who would be the culprit by mid-book (or - if you remove all the clutter from this book - by page 20).
You can give it a try - it's slightly better than the past books (several of which I could not even finish), but nothing like the earlier ones. But in my case - I don't think I'll bother with Kathy Reichs' books any more, it seems unlikely to me she can return to the level of Deja Dead.
Temperance Brennan is joined by her fellow lawmen in following up on a cold case that has become hot once more. Three young women in Canada had been killed by a murderer that got away. The last time almost cost Tempe her life.

This time, Tempe, Ryan, Slidell, Larabee and more join together when it becomes, fearfully, obvious that the killer has moved to North Carolina where Tempe also lives and works. Is it because of Tempe that this killing spree has come?

This book is older and I have obviously been behind in following it. Yet, the characters returned fully formed in my mind and I was able to enjoy it as though it was in current days. I still don't care for Slidell, and I hoped for Tempe and Ryan to truly find each other.

The murder was complex and the ending was well developed. It surprised me. A joy to a mystery reader. Then, as a bonus gift, there was a novella called 'Swamps' at the ending.

The Swamps story was about an aborted vacation of Tempe's in Florida. It gave facts and details of the famous Florida Everglades National Park that was chilling and fascinating. All tied up with the...nope, I won't disclose. Read these tales and be amazed.
