book report: Death Du Jour
Death Du Jour
by Kathy Reichs
I am currently reading the 4th book in this series (Death Du Jour is the 2nd) and so far I think I have liked this one the best. The book begins with Tempe Brennan looking for the buried bones of a Quebecois nun in a Montreal churchyard - she's up for sainthood so they need to find her bones! But the nun's bones are not where they are supposed to be. Next up on Tempe's caseload is a horrible house fire that has killed a lot of people... soon followed by the disappearance of a young graduate student who may have been sucked into a cult.
The revelation about the nun's personal history is the most interesting bit of the book, although there were lots of good twists and turns in the story. That's why I'm still entangled in the series.
