This was an interesting if difficult subject to read, knowing that it's based on fact. The two different case's made it a story that I had to concentrate more on the details so I didn't get lost. As the story developed l was turning the pages to find out what happened. I enjoyed this story and this series is still One of my go-to series to read
I thought I'd already read this book but I don't remember any of it. This was another well written novel by Kathy Reichs, I love the detail explanations she gives of the positions of Forensic anthropologist working for the medical examiners office. In this story Dr Temperance Brennan is in Chupan Ya, working with the team from the Guatemalan Forensic Anthropology Foundation. They are there to uncover the truth and horrors that happened in Chupan Ya in the early 80's. 3.5 stars
