Publisher's summary

Forensic science meets literary fiction.

A skull in one place, a torso in another. Are they connected?

Thirty years ago, the authorities didn’t think so. But, the ingenious forensic anthropologist Dr. Sebastien Grey is now on the case, and he believes they both belong to the same victim - an unidentified man who was shot, dismembered, scattered in two states and burned. But, time is not the only thing standing in the way of the truth. A pair of professional rivals, a spy inside the sheriff’s office and a local family with a dark secret are all obstacles to untying this murderous knot.

This second book in the Sebastien Grey series finds Dr. Grey once again in the Black Hills of South Dakota and teamed up with Tiffany Reese - a shrewd and tough detective who doubles as the love of his life and the only woman who can coax him out of his awkward social isolation. Will their relationship survive the pressure of high stakes cold case work?

Addicting listen!

A spy inside the sheriffs office, a dark deadly secret, and murder in the Black Hills makes this book a page turner. There’s a bit a action but the story moved along at a good pace and there are several scenes that had me on the edge of my seat. It’s a really good murder mystery and I enjoyed following Dr. Grey, Tiffany and Hank around Black Hills and other cities.

Conner Goff, the narrator did a wonderful job portraying the male characters. I did prefer his male tones vs the female.

The second installment in the Sebastien Grey series is an addicting read. If you enjoyed watching Bones or CSI shows, I recommend grabbing this series up.
The book ended in a nice hook and I can’t wait to see what happens next!

Entertaining Read

I enjoyed reading this book by Rayburn Dobbs. I also read the first book of this series. It is good mix of scary stuff, scientific description of crime scenes and light romance. I really like the anthropologist’s view of crime scenes. I’m getting ready to read Dobbs’ third book of this series.
