A decomposing body is found in a shallow grave off a lonely beach...
The skeleton is articulated, the bone fresh and the vertebrae still connected by soft tissue - it's a recent burial, and a case forensic anthropologist Dr Temperence Brennan must take.
Dental remains and skeletal gender and race indicators suggest that the deceased is a middle-aged white male - but who was he? Why was he buried in a clandestine grave? And what does the unusual fracture of the sixth cervical vertebra signify?
But just as Brennan is trying to piece together the evidence, another body is discovered - and before long Tempe finds herself drawn deeper into a shocking and chilling investigation, set to challenge her entire view of humanity.
Soft cover, fairly good condition. The cover shows some minor signs of wear.
