review 1: Forensic archeologist Diane Fallon is driving home on a winding mountain road in heavy rain when a tree suddenly hits the hood of her car, revealing the skeleton hidden within its hollow trunk.As she gets out her car for a closer look, a strange man tries to grab her and she runs for her life into the woods ... she seeks refuge further up the mountain road with friends but makes another startling discovery, they have been murdered in the few short hours since she left them.What begins as a terrible night, descends into more threats in the coming weeks as Dianes' investigation leads to some local secrets that would be better staying buried.An easy, engaging thriller that speeds along at a quick trot - nicely done.
review 2: Forensic investigator Diane Fallon is ... moredriving through a downpour on a mountain road after picking up a set of Indian artifacts when a tree suddenly slams across the hood of her car, revealing a human skeleton in its hollow trunk. As she starts to investigate, she's ambushed by a nasty stranger and forced to run for her life. Stranded in the night, with dogs tracking her, she encounters a mysterious man who helps. Then just when she comes upon a dwelling and feels finally safe, she discovers the inhabitants with their throats cut. Since Diane is also the director of a progressive southern museum as well as a forensic anthropologist, the action slows down a bit to describe all the procedures of running a museum as well as a forensic investigation. Not bad, but the characters she encounters are a little forced. less
