Więcej o książce

Kathy Reichs, #1 New York Times bestselling author and producer of the FOX television hit Bones, presents the thirteenth gripping installment featuring forensic anthropologist Dr. Temperance Brennan. John Lowery, declared dead in 1968 from a Huey crash in Vietnam, resurfaces decades later when a drowning victim in Hemmingford, Quebec is identified as him. The mystery deepens: how could Lowery have died twice, and why is an American soldier found in Canada? Tempe investigates by exhuming Lowery’s grave in North Carolina and bringing the remains to Hawaii for reanalysis at the U.S. military’s Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command. In Hawaii, she is joined by her colleague and ex-lover Detective Andrew Ryan, and her daughter, who is coping with her own loss. As the investigation unfolds, another set of remains is discovered, with Lowery’s dog tags among them—three bodies, all identified as Lowery. Complicating matters, Hadley Perry, Honolulu’s medical examiner, seeks Tempe’s expertise on the remains of an adolescent boy found offshore. Was it a shark attack or something more sinister? A complex tale of deceit and murder emerges in this thrilling addition to Reichs’s expertly crafted series, coinciding with the success of Bones and her recent bestseller, 206 Bones.
