The third book in the Body Farm Thriller series. These are a great read for those really interested in the forensic side of police investigations as there is aplenty of gory detail, as well as fascinating insight in to these procedures. Bill Brockton’s forensic anthropologist is back doing what he does best in his work life and what he does worst in his personal life. A must for all you C.S.I fans.



Synopsis

The Devil's Bones by Jefferson Bass

A woman's charred body has been found inside a burned car atop a hill in Knoxville. Forensic anthropologist Bill Brockton is on the case, torching bodies to research how fire consumes flesh and bone. Days later, he receives a mysterious package - a set of cremated remains that seems entirely unreal.

As Brockton investigates, he uncovers a truth too horrifying to believe. Meanwhile, disgraced medical examiner, and Brockton's nemesis, Garland Hamilton, has escaped from custody. A deadly game of cat and mouse begins, with Brockton's life at stake.

Finally running Hamilton to ground, Brockton finds only the incinerated remains of his enemy, or does he? Before he finds the truth, Brockton will face his ultimate test.
