Death Du Jour by Kathy Reichs
When a recent skeleton among ancient bones raises questions--and danger--forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan is the only one who can solve the case in this triumphant second appearance (Publishers Weekly) from #1 New York Times bestselling author Kathy Reichs. Tempe Brennan is stuck teaching an archaeology field school for students at UNC in Charleston, South Carolina. When she stumbles upon a recent skeleton among the ancient bones, she starts asking questions. She's the expert they might have called in, but lucky for the police she's already there. The skeleton leads her to a free street clinic where patients have begun to go missing, and some have wound up dead. What is going on and who is to blame? The charismatic televangelist who oversees the clinic? The shady doctor who practices there? Or is it the clinic staff? Ryan is in Montreal, though he may come down for a visit. If he does, Tempe will have to juggle him and Detective Galiano, an old flame, who is in town investigating the disappearance of a wealthy young woman. This is a phenomenally high stakes business where one dead body can save a couple of lives, maybe more. Along with the corpses, Tempe investigates the sick moral logic of the mastermind behind the operation. Kathy Reichs has returned Tempe to America and put her in the middle of a sinister trafficking ring that's local and global. The suspense is intense, and the world is riveting. Kathy Reichs's books are expert and smart with a taut energy, and this is her best plot and writing yet.
She is a professor of anthropology in the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and one of only 79 forensic anthropologists ever certified by the American Board of Forensic Anthropology. She is also a past Vice President of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences and a member of the National Police Services Advisory Board in Canada.
