Flash and Bones

In Kathy Reichs's high-stakes fourteenth novel, a body is found in a barrel of asphalt in a landfill next to Lowes Motor Speedway near Charlotte just before Raceweek when 200,000 fans are pouring into town. The next day a NASCAR crew member visits Temperance Brennan at the MCME and tells his story. His sister, Cyndi Gamble, then a high school senior who wanted to be a NASCAR diver, disappeared twelve years before along with her boyfriend, Cale Lovett. Lovette has hung with a group of right wing extremists known as the Patriot Posse. Is the body Cyndi's? Or Cale's? Kathy Reichs, a producer of the «Fox hit Bones», now entering its sixth season, is back with her fourteenth riveting novel featuring North America's favorite forensic anthropologist, Tempe Brennan.
