Bare Bones by Kathy Reichs

Temperance Brennan gets together with her love interest in this book. Yeah! Bare Bones follows the formula of Kathy Reichs other books. Mystery, sleuthing, and then Brennan almost getting whacked in the end. I'm happy, what can I say. I am off to the library today to get some more in the series. Can you say obsessive compulsive? That would be me.

"Down time" is not a phrase in Tempe Brennan's vocabulary. A string of disturbing cases has put her vacation plans on hold; instead, she heads to the lab to analyze charred remains from a suspicious fire, and a mysterious black residue from a small plane crash. But most troubling of them all are the bones...Tempe's daughter's new boyfriend invites them to a picnic-a pig picken'-in North Carolina's countryside, where a cache of bones turns up. But are they animal or human? X-rays and DNA may link the crimes, but they can't reveal who is closing in on Tempe and her daughter-and how far they will go to keep her from discovering the truth.
