Présentation de l'éditeur In the opening scene of Kathy Reichs s 206 Bones, Tempe Brennan regains consciousness and discovers that she is in some kind of very small, very dark, very cold enclosed space. She is bound, hands to feet, and there s something the matter with her ankle. She begins, slowly, to remember. Tempe and Lieutenant Ryan had accompanied recently discovered remains the heiress had been missing for over a year from Montreal to the Chicago morgue to be returned to the family. Suddenly, Tempe is accused of mishandling the autopsy and the case. Someone has made an incriminating phone call. Within hours, the one man who knows who made the call is dead, and Tempe is in the dark. Who wants Tempe dead, or at least out of the way, and why? With deft assurance, Reichs weaves between the stories of the old case of the heiress Rose Jurmain and a new case that may or may not be related. She conveys the incredible devastation that would occur if a forensic colleague through incompetence or design sabotaged Tempe s work in the laboratory. The chemistry between Tempe and Ryan is better than ever, and the suspense is fiercely intense in this twelfth novel from increasingly successful Reichs. Biographie de l'auteur Kathy Reichs, like her fictional creation, Temperance Brennan, is forensic anthropologist for the province of Quebec. She is Vice President of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences, serves on the Canadian National Police Services Advisory Council, and is one of only fifty-six forensic anthropologists certified by the American Board of Forensic Anthropology. A professor of anthropology at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Dr. Reichs now divides her time between Charlotte and Montreal. Déjà Dead, her debut novel, brought her fame when it became a New York Times bestseller and won the 1997 Ellis Award for Best First Novel. In 2007 Break No Bones was short-listed for the Ellis Award for Best Novel. Kathy Reichs is the inspiration for the television drama Bones; her latest novel featuring Temperance Brennan is Bones to Ashes. Her website is www.kathyreichs.com. Afficher moinsAfficher plus
