Bones Never Lie

Extended Synopsis

Forensic anthropologist Dr. Temperance Brennan is called to the Charlotte PD's Cold Case Unit regarding an unexpected and terrifying connection. Two child murders, separated by thousands of miles, share a singular, chilling link to a ghost from Tempe's past: Anique Pomerleau. Years ago, Pomerleau kidnapped and murdered young girls in Canada before narrowly eluding capture—a devastating defeat for Tempe and police detective Andrew Ryan. Now resurfaced in the United States, Pomerleau has struck again. To stop the psychopath's reign of terror, Tempe must draw her bitter ex-partner out of exile, navigate jurisdictional battles between local police and federal agents, and face her own deepest demons before another child vanishes.
