It's the second-to-last day of archaeological field school. The students are working on a prehistoric gravesite when a much more recent burial is uncovered. The skeleton is articulated, the bone fresh, and the vertebrae still connected by soft-tissue. It's a case forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan has to take. But her investigations soon have her in too deep - her entire view of humanity is challenged, and the further she probes, the more she seems to be putting herself in danger.

Story
"Death by self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head" is the on-scene assessment, but the victim's relatives are adamant in their rejection of suicide as an explanation. Discovered in a closet, a full week after death, the body is barely recognisable. Extreme heat has accelerated decomposition, and Dr Temperance Brennan's forensic expertise is required. Advanced putrefaction has made it virtually impossible to determine the trajectory of the bullet.

Story
Temperance Brennan, forensic anthropologist for the state of Quebec, is abruptly recalled from a course she is teaching at Quantico for a gruesome duty. A biker war is raging in Quebec and two of its foot soldiers have blown themselves up. The only person qualified to make sense of what remains is Tempe. Like many in the region, she cares little what les motards, the bikers, do to each other. Until the body of a nine-year-old girl is wheeled into the morgue, slain by biker crossfire.
Publisher's Summary
Under the microscope, the outer bone surface is a moonscape of craters…‘Preliminary diagnosis?’. ‘Deformity of the bone. Maybe. Cortical destruction on a metacarpal. Maybe. Localised infection? Systemic disease process? Postmortem destruction, either purposeful or natural? A combination of the above? I don’t have a diagnosis…’
The skeleton is that of a young girl, no more than 14 years old – and forensic anthropologist Dr Temperance Brennan is struggling to keep her emotions in check. Coroner Yves Bradette is being evasive, insisting the bones are ancient and of no interest.
But it doesn’t quite add up, and a frustrated Tempe is convinced that Bradette is hiding something… It’s not Tempe’s case; she’s overwhelmed with more urgent work in the lab… But the nagging in her subconscious won’t let up. A memory triggered, deep in her hindbrain – the disappearance of a childhood friend; no warning, no explanation… Working on instinct, Tempe takes matters into her own hands. But she couldn’t have predicted where this case would lead, or the horrors it would eventually uncover…Can Tempe maintain a professional distance as the past catches up with her in this, her most deeply personal case yet?

Reichs at her best.
Reichs is at her best in Bones to Ashes. Tempe remembers the strange disappearance of childhood friend Evangeline, whom she is told is dangerous. The discovery of a book of poems which may have been written by Evangeline is investigated by Tempe and her sister Harry. Meanwhile Andrew Ryan is investigating the murders of 3 young girls, which may be linked to Evangeline's disappearance. A brilliant and captivating story, read by Lorelei King. A great read and listen, with shocking twists and a brilliant storyline.

Awful
This is such an irritating book, Temperance Brennan spends far too long mulling over her love life, this adds nothing to the story, she is also so irritating, being total self obsessed in the 'I'll do whatever I want' way. The whole novel could have been told in a third of the time.
Long drawn out descriptions of dreams...... Obviously giving her the direction to take her enquiries!
Long medical analyses and descriptions not relevant and just superfluous to the story.
To top it all, unless I missed the point I never understood WHY the girl went missing and lived as she did! Maybe I just drifted off from boredom.
Such rubbish!
