The Bone Hacker

A Temperance Brennan Novel

By: Kathy Reichs

Narrated by: Linda Emond

#1 New York Times bestselling author Kathy Reichs’s twenty-second high-stakes thriller! In this “attention-grabbing” (Booklist) narrative, forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan follows a series of bizarre disappearances on the islands of Turks and Caicos and enters a sinister labyrinth in which a new technology may wreak worldwide havoc.

Called in to examine what is left of a person thought to have been struck by lightning, Tempe traces an unusual tattoo to its source and is soon embroiled in something much larger. Young men—tourists—have been disappearing on the islands of Turks and Caicos. Seven years earlier, the first victim was found in a strange location with his left hand hacked off; subsequently, two other visitors vanished without a trace. But recently, tantalizing leads have emerged…

Maddeningly, the victims seem to have nothing in common—other than the odd places where their bodies turn up, and the fact that none seems likely to have been involved in criminal activity. Do these attacks have something to do with the islands’ culture of gang violence? Tempe isn’t so sure—but she soon discovers evidence that what’s at stake may have global significance, and the sound of a ticking clock grows menacingly loud. Then Tempe herself becomes a target…

Great

Excellent story would highly recommend this. As well thought out enjoyed listening to it very much

suspenseful

Kathy Reichs always writes suspenseful stories that are enjoyable and interesting, usually covering multiples countries.

Love this series!!

I wait patiently for each installment of this series! One of my absolute favorites. I purchase as soon as they are available and devour them in no time!This story like all the rest is extremely well thought out and written. Love Kathy Reichs books! I even miss the show Bones!

Riveting story

This was a Riveting story but the narration was a bit slow and unexciting at times.

Best One Yet!

Enjoyed this from start to finish. Characters likeable and believable. Setting so much nicer than cold Montreal!

A great, but short, book

Great book, well written, per the usual.... but *so* short. More like a Novella. I could have read this one in my free time vs using up my monthly free credit for a book I only got to listen to for a few days. So, really disappointed at that. Because it was so short, the story was not very in-depth and as detailed as her stories usually are. The story was great, had the potential to be more than what it was though. Hoping her next novel is longer then 9 hrs, or, at least is not categorize is as a "Novel", which is very misleading. But, absolutely love her writing!

Another great one

I always enjoy Kathy Reich’s novels. They keep you entertained and you learn something new as well.

One of her best!

Love the Temperance Brennan book series, and this is one of the best in it.

Love it!

As usual, you can’t put this one down. I can’t wait for her next book.

I'm Fangirling All Over Tempe! (And, Kathy!)

THANK YOU for keeping politics to a bare minimum! Praise all that is holy, I truly ENJOYED every aspect of this book! YAY!!!

Terrific story and excellent mystery, plus enduring and endearing characters that were all tied up with a ribbon (natch)! It was such a great escape and, as always, I learned some history and histology (and other medical whatnot)! Thank you, thank you, Kathy!!

Linda is NOW 100% Tempe for me! She's terrific! (Okay, I still love Barbara Rosenblat--who I was able to fangirl email with before she got famous--but Linda is a force and I love her, too!)

Great book, and I'm on pins and needles for the next!!!
