"On the way to hurricane-ravaged Isle of Palms Tempe receives a call from the Charleston coroner. The storm has tossed ashore a medical waste container. Inside are two decomposed bodies wrapped in plastic sheeting and bound with electrical wire. Tempe recognizes many of the details as identical to those of an unsolved case she handled in Quebec years earlier... Meanwhile, health authorities in South Carolina become increasingly alarmed as a human flesh-eating contagion spreads."--

3 stars I need to stop buying these books just because I used to love them so much. Made me want to rewatch Bones though!
The latest installment in the Temperance Brennan series, The Bone Code involves a blast from the past as a new case Tempe catches in North Carolina brings back memories of an unsolved murder she and Ryan worked in Montreal 15 years earlier. She ping pongs between the U.S. and Canada as she works to discover how (or if) the two cases are indeed connected.
I always enjoy a new Bones book (although I have to say, I hardly associate these books with the TV show because they are so different)! I thought the secondary mystery/investigation in this story was unnecessary and it somewhat distracted from the main plot, but overall it was a good read. There's not much character development, but perhaps that's not too surprising for the 20th book in a series. I'm still looking forward to more!
