- Synopsis
- #1 New York Times bestselling author Kathy Reichs returns with a new twisty, unputdownable thriller featuring forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan. It&’s never easy working fire scenes. Called to Washington, DC to analyse the victims of a mysterious arson attack, Tempe quickly finds her misgivings justified. The fire site is in Foggy Bottom, a neighbourhood with a colourful history, and as the pieces start falling into place, the property&’s ownership becomes more and more suspicious. Sensing a good story, Tempe teams up with a new ally, telejournalist Ivy Doyle. Delving into the past, the duo learns that back in the Thirties and Forties the home was the hangout of a group of bootleggers and racketeers known as the Foggy Bottom Gang. Though interesting, this fact seems irrelevant – until the son of one of the gang members is shot dead at his farm in Virginia. When another Foggy Bottom Gang-linked property burns to the ground, claiming one more victim, what might have been coincidence starts to look more like targeted attacks. As she and Ivy dig deeper, Tempe&’s instincts point towards the obvious: somehow, her every move since coming to Washington has been anticipated in advance. And every path forward brings with it a lethal threat.PRAISE FOR KATHY REICHS: &‘A thing of clever beauty – smart, scary, complicated, and engrossing&’ Michael Connelly &‘This page-turning series never lets the reader down&’ Harlan Coben &‘One of my favourite writers&’ Karin Slaughter &‘I await the next Kathy Reichs thriller with the same anticipation I have for the new Lee Child or Patricia Cornwell&’ James Patterson
