Down to the bare bones
A MAN drowned, while, apparently, in the midst of a bizarre sexual practice; three corpses, identified as the same man; body parts found in a shark. Kathy Reichs’ new novel, starring, as usual, the forensic anthropologist, Tempe Brennan, is a tangle of mixed identities, long held lies and muddled lives.
Kathy has quite a few identities herself. At 60, she’s a wife, mother of three grown children and a recent grandmother of two. A prolific, best selling writer since 1997, when her debut, Deja Dead, became the best selling crime novel ever, Kathy has written and produced, some of Bones — the TV adaptation of her novels. She has also written, Virals, in collaboration with her lawyer son. It’s the first of a series of teen crime books. It’s due out here next year.
