Thank you NetGalley and Scribner for the eARC The Bone Hacker.
I was very excited getting this book as an ARC since I was such a fan of Bones. The story takes place in Canada and on the islands of Turks and Caicos. I do not read French so I did have to spend a lot of time looking up translations. (book borrower beware) besides that it was a great story.

A man struck by lightening has a tattoo that links him to the Turks and Caicos. Within days, Detective Tiersa Musgrove is in Montreal, convincing Tempe Brennan to return with her to the islands where a bigger case awaits. Tempe agrees to accompany her home to the Turks and Caicos. It won’t be a vacation. Young men there have disappeared and when bodies have been found, they are missing their left hands. Why? And why did a boat leave the Bahamas on a male bonding trip and travel 600 miles off course, sailing in the ocean until all passengers were dead of dehydration? Are gangs and drugs the problem or is it something darker and part of a wider conspiracy?

Tempe Brennan is out of her comfort zone here and it adds to the appeal of The Bone Hacker. Kathy Reichs is at the top of her game. She’s switched the location from the usual Montreal or North Carolina and added freshness with new characters and a tropical location. Of course, the plot is deliciously complicated and twisty. 5 stars.

Thank you to NetGalley, Scribner and Kathy Reichs for this ARC.

4 stars out of 5.

I am a huge fan of this series and this book did not disappoint. This book was a page turner from start to finish. The plot was interesting, had lots of action and left me wanting more!

Tempe was called in to examine a victim thought to be struck by lightening. A tattoo on the victim brings her to call in the police from the Turks and Caicos. It turns out she is asked to look into a handful of other murder victims that could be related to her lightening strike victim. Tempe goes to the island to see if she can assist in this case. Are the victims connected? Is there something bigger going on?

Thanks Netgalley and Scribner publishing for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

I was so excited to get to read the next Temperance Brennan book - The Bone Hacker.

Kathy Reichs is one of my favorite authors and her latest did not disappoint. Great action and intensity as Temperance jets around studying death and bones while solving multiple mysteries. Very engaging and entertaining!

Thanks to NetGalley and Scribner for the opportunity to read this great ARC.

There is no one more enjoyable to read than Tempe Brennen and what a joy to have a new one. Twisty, sick and entertainer as always…..another home run indeed!
