No one speaks the language of suspense more brilliantly than Kathy Reichs, author of the acclaimed Temperance Brennan series. In Speaking in Bones, the forensic anthropologist finds herself drawn into a world of dark secrets and dangerous beliefs, where good and evil blur.
Â
Professionally, Temperance Brennan knows exactly what to doâ€”test, analyze, identify. Her personal life is another story. Sheâ€™s at a loss, wondering how to answer police detective Andrew Ryanâ€™s marriage proposal. But the matter of matrimony takes a backseat when murder rears its head.
Â
Hazel â€œLuckyâ€ Strikeâ€”a strident amateur detective who mines the Internet for cold casesâ€”comes to Brennan with a tape recording of an unknown girl being held prisoner and terrorized. Strike is convinced the voice is that of eighteen-year-old Cora Teague, who went missing more than three years earlier. Strike is also certain that the teenagerâ€™s remains are gathering dust in Temperance Brennanâ€™s lab.
Â
Brennan has doubts about working with a self-styled websleuth. But when the evidence seems to add up, Brennanâ€™s next stop is the treacherous backwoods where the chilling recording (and maybe Cora Teagueâ€™s bones) were discovered. Her forensic field trip only turns up more disturbing questionsâ€”along with gruesome proof of more untimely deaths.
Â
While local legends of eerie nocturnal phenomena and sinister satanic cults abound, itâ€™s a zealous and secretive religious sect that has Brennan spooked and struggling to separate the saints from the sinners. But thereâ€™s nothing, including fire and brimstone, that can distract her from digging up the truth and taking down a killerâ€”even as Brennan finds herself in a place where angels fear to tread, devils demand their due, and she may be damned no matter what.
