Déjà Dead, Kathy Reichs
Actress Amy Irving's low-key approach fits first novelist Reichs's on-the-edge-of- your-seat thriller (LJ 8/97) perfectly. Montreal forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan is called upon when seemingly old bones are unearthed. She unwittingly stumbles upon a headless?and fresh?corpse. Research into other murders convinces her that a pattern is emerging and perhaps a serial killer is on the loose. Reluctant to agree, the police do not offer much assistance, and Tempy embarks upon detailed and sometimes grisly detective work, which makes her the killer's target. Immediately grabbing the listener's attention, this sophisticated work is stocked with well-developed and believable characters. The frequent French place names and phrases?handled eloquently by Irving?add an authentic and exotic flavor. One hopes that this will be just the beginning of a series of Temperance Brennan mysteries.?
