Deadly Décisions
When a plane crashes high in the mountains of North Carolina,
Tempe Brennan is one of the first on the scene. As a forensic
anthropologist for the state, she serves on the region's disaster response
team. The task that confronts her is a sad and sickening one.
Putting normal life on hold, Tempe and her colleagues must
painstakingly identify the victims.
A chance discovery concerns her: a severed foot, well away from the
main crash site. A deserted house close by is buried so deep in the
woods that locals claim to know nothing of its existence. And her
examination of the foot throws up more questions than it answers.
Before she can make any progress, Tempe's professional standing
is threatened. But she fears that, air tragedy aside, another corpse
lies somewhere in the woods. Pitting herself against a conspiracy
of silence, Tempe vows to bring justice for her mystery victim.
