The Bone Hacker is Kathy Reichs' latest book in her Temperance Brennan Series ~ Number 22 of 22.
Synopsis of The Bone Hacker
Readers of earlier Temperance Brennan novels will be thrilled with The Bone Hacker, the latest book in the series.
Temperance Brennan is a forensic anthropologist, dividing her time between her headquarters in North Carolina and Montreal.
As the story opens, Tempe is working in Montreal, Canada, where she shares an apartment with her significant other, Andrew Ryan, a lieutenant with the Quebec police working in homicide.
Tempe is called in to examine what is left of a person thought to have been struck by lightning during a storm. As she traces an unusual tattoo on the body, she discovers it is a symbol of a gang operating in the islands of Turks and Caicos. A call to the police department there brings a high-ranking officer to Montreal to meet with Tempe and persuade her to return to the islands to help with two sets of bones recently discovered and possibly connected to three young men – tourists – two of whom have disappeared without a trace in the past seven years.
The case becomes much larger than Tempe expected and tantalizing leads begin to emerge. At first it was thought that the gang violence in the islands was connected to these deaths, but Tempe is not so sure. As she discovers more evidence, it seems to point to something that will have global significance.
Summary
As the story nears its climax, it becomes apparent that new technology may wreak worldwide havoc and Tempe herself becomes a target. A thriller with an exciting and surprising ending.
