Monday Mourning by Kathyr Reichs is another fabulous novel in the Temperance Brennan stand alone series.
This is the cover for my 1st edition hardback published in 2004.

He told me and started to expound on the reasons for needing both bone ad tooth specimens. the clock said three-fifty. I cut him off.

Book Beginnings
As the tune played inside my head, gunfire exploded in the cramped underground space around me.
GOODREADS BLURB: The bones of three young women are unearthed in the basement of a Montreal pizza parlor, and forensic anthropologist Tempe Brennan has unsolved murder on her mind as she examines the shallowly buried remains. Coming up against a homicide cop who is convinced the dead have been entombed on the site for centuries, Tempe perseveres, even with her own relationship with Detective Andrew Ryan at a delicate turning point. In the lab, the clean, well-perserved bones offer few clues. But when Carbon 14 confirms her hunch that these were recent deaths despite the antique buttons found near the bodies, Tempe’s probing must produce answers quickly to stop a killer whose grisly handiwork has seen the light of day.

Week in Review
This is such a good series. I still need the lst 2 books. Then I might do a reread of all of them. Something about the last cover shown really draws me in.
My Friday 56 from Guarded
You definitely have my attention! 😀
Wishing you the best on 2017!
I’m wondering what tunes the character could be hearing in his/her head while in the middle of gunfire! I’ve read several books by this author, but that was quite a while ago. This sounds like another good one.
My Friday post features Náápiikoan Winter.
This looks like a punchy read. I’ve tried reading her books a couple of times, but find the anatomical details a tad too grisly. I like the third cover – the cold blue light nicely echoes the misery of a grim Monday…
I’ve really enjoyed the Brennan series that I’ve read. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
