Summary
The compelling new Dr. Temperance Brennan novel from the world-class forensic anthropologist and number-one best-selling author Kathy Reichs.
When forensic anthropologist Dr. Tempe Brennan is approached by amateur detective Hazel 'Lucky' Strike, at first she is inclined to dismiss the woman's claims that she's matched a previously unidentified set of remains with a name. But as the words of a terrified young woman echo round her office from an audio recorder found near where the bones were discovered, something about the story won't let Tempe go.
As Tempe investigates further, she finds herself involved in a case more complicated and horrifying than she could ever have imagined.

Another good Temperance Brennan story
This is another in the Temperance Brennan series of books.
The story does not deviate from the basis that we expect from this series, but there are some storylines that are tied up, or explained further by the end of the book.
One of the nicest touches for me was the introduction of a dog that has Chow in its breeding. The Chow breed has very distinctive traits, and I love seeing some of those traits come to life in this story. Even if the dog described is not a pure breed Chow.
I was impressed with the job the narrator did, of all the narrators I've heard with the Bones stories she ranks up there as one of the best.

Very Enjoyable
It's a long time since I last read a Kathy Reichs book but this one reminded me how much I liked her books in the past. This one was a bit grim in places but it kept me interested and involved from start to finish.

As the norm.
Loved it but as always seemed to finish very quickly. Wish the book went on longer.

Drawn out
Enjoyed listening to it all pan out. Very detailed in parts but the end felt limp and boring.

Worth reading
Quite a good story, suspense was good and characters interesting. Maybe not her best, but certainly readable.

Love K.R's stories, I love the science too.
KR's writing pulls me right in, it's immediate narrative is addictive. The science is fascinating, educational, her plot keeps me hooked and thinking.

Loved it! If it's possible for one of Kathy Reich's stories to better than the others, it must be this one!
As far as the ending? I NEVER SAW IT COMING!

Not one of the best 😕
A bit of a disappointment but at last Ryan and Temperance get it together. Storyline not really credible.
However it still Entertains and I learnt something new about personality disorders.

Narration poor
What did you like most about Speaking in Bones?
The usual Kathy Reichs intrigue and tight plot and of course the complexities of forensic pathology - very addictive!
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
Unfortunately the performance (reader Katherine Borowitz) was not up to her usual standard. So much so that it made me wonder if the actual production was flawed. The voice fluctuated as though everything was slowing down one moment then speeding up. Perhaps audible can let me know if there was any issues with the audio production?
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Kathy Reichs unabridged cannot usually be completed in one sitting. This one will probably be completed in two.
Any additional comments?
I am addicted to forensic pathology particularly that of Kathy Reichs. Tempe relates through audio books and obviously the Bones series on TV. Hopefully she will never run out of stories.
Due to the flawed performance Speaking in Bones was a a let down and a disapointment to listen to.
