Bones Are Forever (Canadian)
Bones Are Forever (Canadian) | Kathy Reichs
13 posts | 30 read | 17 to read
In her fifteenth novel in the popular Bones series, #1 New York Times bestselling author Kathy Reichs delivers a story of infanticide, murder, and corruption set in the high-stakes, high-danger world of diamond mining. A woman calling herself Amy Roberts checks into a Montreal hospital complaining of uncontrolled bleeding. Doctors see evidence of a recent birth, but before they can act, Roberts disappears. Dispatched to the address she gave at the hospital, police discover bloody towels outside in a dumpster. Fearing the worst, they call Temperance Brennan to investigate. Inside the run-down apartment, Tempe makes a ghastly discovery: the decomposing bodies of three infants. According to the landlord, a woman named Alma Rogers lives there. Then a man shows up looking for Alva Rodriguez. Are Amy Roberts, Alma Rogers, and Alva Rodriguez the same person? Did she kill her own babies? And where is she now? Heading up the investigation is Tempe's old flame, homicide detective Andrew Ryan. His counterpart from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police is sergeant Ollie Hasty, who happens to have a little history with Tempe himself. The unlikely trio follows the woman's trail, first to Edmonton and then to Yellowknife, a diamond-mining city in the Northwest Territories. What they discover in Yellowknife is more sinister than they ever could have imagined.

I love this one. It kept me on my toes. And since I'm Canadian, I understand the territory. Twits were unpredictable. #Rushathon @DieAReader @Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES No bingo spots with this one.

Mehso-so

Book 15 in the series and it was going to be another pick but then yet again Tempe's world went black 🤔 Her getting herself into such trouble as an anthropologist is getting abit tiresome for me 😒 Will still read the next book though 🤣
#MountTBR (book 39) #Murder2020 (book 90)

Lauraandherbooks This sounds interesting 3y

An unpopular opinion. Honestly, this is between so-so and 👎 read:

✔ Promising plot

❌ Lack of character development
❌ Not much forensics part written
❌ Too many subplots. I've lost interest midway!
❌ Did not like the writing style at all

Rating: 2.5🌟

I was tempted to walk there and take a pic but it‘s about a 30min walk and I‘m having a lazy day at the moment!!
Another series I still love and Tempe is a great MC.

Cinfhen I decided I‘m adding Liverpool to my hopefully London trip in October❣️and I‘m booking you as my local guide😘🙌🏻 6y
TrishB @Cinfhen that would be fab 👍🏻 A Magical Mystery Tour (it‘s a thing) 6y
PenguinInFlight This is my favorite series. Any Brennan book is an insta-buy for me. (I‘m a HUGE Beatles fan - that‘s so awesome that Strawberry Fields is close to you! 😍🍓One of these days, I‘ll see England and all of those spots!) 6y

MicheleinPhilly I‘m watching Carpool Karaoke with Paul right now and every time they get out of the car I keep scanning the faces for yours. ☺️ 6y
TrishB @MicheleinPhilly we were literally about 10 minutes too late. It started breaking in social media and we all got our shoes on but they‘d just gone when we got there! It was definitely a well kept secret though. 6y
MicheleinPhilly 😩😩😩 That sucks! 6y

I enjoyed the fifteenth book in the Temperance Brennan series. But I do wish she would stop getting kidnapped in every book. I am not even going to bother spoiler tagging that 😂

MicheleinPhilly 😂 That made me LOL. I'm still a die-hard L&O: SVU fan (even though I think it pretty much sucks now) and I'm ALWAYS complaining about what they put Olivia through. Like can she just retire and have a nice life already??? 7y

Snuggling with my oldest kitty Gehrig this morning. I was so happy because he doesn't snuggle as much as he used to. There is nothing better than cats and books. Tea not pictured 😂

masteryoda716 How do you tackle multiple books at a time? Do you focus on one for a day or two and rotate through or try to hit multiple books each day? 7y
ReadingSusan @masteryoda716 I just read whatever book whenever I feel like it. 7y

#photoadaynov16 #day29 #chillyreads I was trying for a cold freezer picture, don't think I pulled it off😋This particular Tempe Brennan novel is set in Yellowknife,a diamond mining town on the edge of the Arctic Circle in Canada.Average temp in winter is -26C,though the lowest recorded was -51.2C in 1947. My Hubbys aunt lived there for two years when her husband was employed by the mine, she said it was so cold she had constant migraines.❄️☃️❄️

tpixie I bet that was a long two years! I love Tempe & Kathy Reichs!!! 7y
SuperPunkNinja Love it! ❄ ❄ ❄ 7y
Dragon I was once in Yellowknife but it wasn't winter thank goodness. I was on my way to the high Arctic for my summer job at an ice mine. It was a great adventure! 7y
