β¦ Synopsis
The Barnes & Noble Review
This medical thriller from Jefferson Bass (pseudonym for the writing team of Dr. William Bass, founder of the University of Tennessee's legendary Body Farm, and acclaimed journalist Jon Jefferson) returns readers to the infamous Anthropology Research Facility at UT, where forensic anthropologist (or "bone detective") Dr. Bill Brockton, founder of the world-renowned postmortem decay research lab, is assisting medical examiner Jess Carter. The two are working on a truly revolting case involving a cross-dresser whose brutally beaten body is found in a Chattanooga park. But as Brockton and Carter (who are beginning a painfully awkward romance) begin to unravel the horrific murder mystery, Carter is murdered herself, and Brockton becomes the prime suspect. With his career, his reputation, and his very freedom in jeopardy, Brockton must somehow find the real killer before it's too late
Aficionados of forensic science television series like CSI and Bones and novels by authors like Patricia Cornwell, Kathy Reichs, and Kathryn Fox will undoubtedly enjoy this gruesomely explicit -- and at times utterly sickening -- look at forensic science and its invaluable significance in police work. Maggot- and blowfly-infested corpse not included. Paul Goat Allen
