A suspenseful novel beginning with a myterious transmission from the botton of the Atlantic Ocean. A team goes to investigate...
An interesting twist on an Atlantis story. Not one of Cook's best.

A novel that takes current news headlines and weaves them into a compelling story.
Tempe must perform an autopsy on a highly decomposed body of an Orthodox Jewish man. As she is leaving a man, "a friend of the family", gives her a photo of a skelaton and implies that the man was killed because of it.
She must get to the bottom of this mystery...Little does she know that in order to do that she and Ryan will travel half way around the world to Isreal and become involved in additional deaths, attacks on her person, fanatic religious sects, and corrupt officials.
Just like normal.
A extremely enjoyable and quick read.

While there she becomes enmeshed in the cases of four privileged young women who have vanished from Guatemala City.
This was a facinating read that more than met my expectations for a Kathy Reichs novel.

An interesting story that overuses the main character's affliction, hysterical blindness. Murder appears to be the only method to protect the political ambition of a rich and promenant family from their own corruption.

A mystery based upon a murder that took place over twenty years ago and the consequences of actions and inactions that took place as a result. An interesting, twisted novel that will leave you wondering how people come up with these story lines.
