I do love the Brennan Books - not my favorite, but so good to have a new one.

Very much enjoyed this book, it had a captivating story line and kept me interested and entertained right the way through. The last Bones book lost its sparkle for me but this one ignited the love for the series again, it was very good. Well written and thrilling with some twists to the plot and wow moments. Highly recommended.

Two bodies are found in a waste container that has washed up on the shore. Tempe is called to investigate and sees similarities with another case she has worked on previously. Alongside this case, there is a bacterium that is sweeping through South Carolina and it can eat human flesh!

Sounds great right? Well that's because it is. This is a fantastic instalment in the Temperance Brennan - "Bones" series. It is number 20 and I have nowhere near read as many of those as I would have liked. I am on a mission to read them all now though.

Kathy Reichs writes with such pace and tension the you somehow forget time and continue reading way past bedtime. It keeps you gripped from start to finish and it doesn't let up. There is constantly something happening, and yet there is no filler. That is a perfect combo and one that will keep even the most hardened thriller reader intrigued.

This story is so well plotted, the intricacy of the storylines and the way they merge into one is just fascinating and an absolute credit to the author.

I absolutely, wholeheartedly recommend this book to fans of thrillers, forensic thrillers, conspiracy novels and perhaps true crime readers too.

Thank you to Simon and Shuster UK for my copy of this book.
