A Conspiracy of Bones von Kathy Reichs

Temperance Brennan, still recovering from neurosurgery following an aneurysm, is battling nightmares and what she thinks might be hallucinations when she receives a series of mysterious text messages, each containing a new picture of a corpse that is missing its face and hands. An identified corpse soon turns up, only partly answering her questions. The 19th instalment in the bestselling series featuring forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan.

Kathy Reichs's first novel, Déjà Dead, published in 1997, won the Ellis Award for Best First Novel and was an international bestseller. To date, she has written twenty-two novels featuring forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan. Kathy was also a producer of Fox Television's longest running scripted drama, Bones, which was based on her work and her novels. One of very few forensic anthropologists certified by the American Board of Forensic Anthropology, Kathy divides her time between Charlotte, North Carolina, and Montreal, Québec. Visit her at KathyReichs.com or follow her on Twitter @KathyReichs, Instagram @KathyReichs or Facebook @KathyReichsBooks.
