Deja Dead, Paperback

From the New York Times bestselling author of Speaking in Bones, the first Temperance Brennan novel in the ``cleverly plotted and expertly maintained series`` (The New York Times Book Review).

Her life is devoted to justice--even for those she never knew.

In the year since Temperance Brennan left behind a shaky marriage in North Carolina, work has often preempted her weekend plans to explore Quebec. When a female corpse is discovered meticulously dismembered and stashed in trash bags, Temperance detects an alarming pattern--and she plunges into a harrowing search for a killer. But her investigation is about to place those closest to her--her best friend and her own daughter--in mortal danger...

``A genius at building suspense`` (Daily News, New York), Kathy Reichs's Temperance Brennan books are ripe with intricate settings and memorable characters`` (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel).
