Not someone who can give stars to this book! I read it for work and not for my own sake... Now because I haven't read anything By Kathy Reichs before, which means no Temperance Brennan novels... it was really difficult for me to read and enjoy this book. There were characters I didn't know about, plot lines and references to older books which made no sense or were relevant to me. Coming to the plotline. It was great but as I said again... because I wasn't familiar with the world of Temperance Brennan, it was hard for me to hold my attention and keep reading.
