review 1: Throughout this series, forensic anthropologist Diane Fallon has been haunted by a massacre that took place when she was in South America investigating human rights abuses. She lost her adopted daughter and returned in shock to Georgia. Now she discovers Simone Brooks, a colleague from those days, lying injured on the floor of the crime lab that Diane directs at the Museum of Natural History. In the few words she is able to say, Simone reveals that a person they trusted in South America was responsible for the massacre. Meanwhile, anthropologist Lindsay Chamberlain, the heroine of another of the author’s series, is mistaken for Diane and kidnapped in Peru. While Lindsay has adventures worthy of Indiana Jones, Diane has to untangle the web of lies about the massacre ... moreand figure out who around her is involved. It is unfortunate that the contirvances of the plot require her to have a couple lapses of judgment. However, this is an exciting read with a trio of appealing heroines.
review 2: Love Connor's books. The story is always fascinating and she does a good balance of science with action. It reminds me more of the television series Bones than any of Reich's books. I liked the two perspectives throughout the book and it was nice to not have all the focus on Fallon. Diane Fallon has a tendancy to be superwoman. She's had experience in everything and is an expert in everything to the point it stretches crediability. This was not my favorite in this series but it was really nice to see this aspect of Diane's past wrapped up. less
