About this product

Product Information

Kathy Reichs's eleventh forensic mystery thriller, in which Temperance Brennan heads to Charlotte, North Carolina to solve a demonic plot involving ritual sacrifice before the town's vengeful citizens take matters into their own hands. In a house under renovation, a plumber uncovers a cellar no one knew about and makes a grisly discovery: a decapitated chicken, animal bones, and cauldrons containing beads, feathers, and other relics of religious ceremonies. In the center of the shrine rests the skull of a teenage girl. Meanwhile, on a nearby lakeshore, the headless body of a teenage boy is found by a man walking his dog. Forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan is called in to investigate, and a complex and gripping tale unfolds. Nothing is clear--neither when the deaths occurred, nor where. Was the skull brought to the cellar or was the girl murdered there? Why is the boy's body remarkably well preserved? Led by a preacher turned politician, citizen vigilantes blame devil worshippers and Wiccans, and Temperance will need all of her expertise to get to the real culprit first.

  • Very impressed with the writing on this one...

    Once again Kathy Reichs blows you away with her compelling story in Devil Bones. For me, this book was a little like comparitive religion in that it covers Wicca, Santeria, Voodoo, and one or two others are mentioned during the case and throughout the story. If you know nothing about these religions, you'll learn something. For me, it was a bit of a reminder for a few of them. This core of the story is not your typical Temperance Brennan stuff, it's better. Set in North Carolina, you get a true feel for the areas mentioned, for the events, for everything really. If you're already a fan of Kathy's novels, you have to read this. If you love the TV show Bones, you're missing out by not reading the books. This one ranks at the top as one of my faves.

  • One of the best I've read of Kathy Reichs

    Wasn't sure what to expect based on the title, but it was an excellent read. I love all of her books, but this one rates at the top of my list. I love forensic science and Ms. Reichs delivers in this one too.

  • Today's witches and the occult unveiled

    Temperance Brennan is her usual Nancy Drew-like sleuth in this modern witch hunt novel. The occult and those who are self-proclaimed witches are uncovered in a new way with some actual dialogue about what they actually believe and are about. Fascinating story line with elements of suspense and the tragic killing of a police officer. The book is dedicated to those law enforcement personnel who keep that part of South Carolina safe.

  • Great Reading

    Kathy Reichs' books rank up there with some of the best....Grisham, Baldacci etc.If you have watched "Bones" don't be disappointed but she has great story lines and her books are hard to put down.

  • Devil Bones

    I love Kathy Reich's books. They are filled with a little mystery, romance, mayhem, and intique. As always this Kathy Reich's book was a page turner. I could not put it down until I finished it.
