Deadly Decisions<\/em> (1999) Kathy Reichs<\/a><\/p>\n

\"deadly_decisions\"<\/a>Tempe is finishing her final exams and teaching her workshop at Quantico when she receives a call from Montreal asking her to come back to work early, as they received a case requiring her expertise. These bombing victims and the death of a nine year old girl caught in the crossfire lead Tempe to become involved in the investigation of biker gangs operating in Montreal.<\/p>\n

Tempe is also trying to figure out her relationship with Detective Andrew Ryan, a situation that becomes almost immediately more complex.<\/p>\n

And into the middle of this involvement drops Tempe’s nephew, Kit. He’s 19, at loose ends, and once again arguing with his father, so he crashes with his favorite aunt.<\/p>\n

As usual there’s lost of interesting scientific and forensic stuff. This time the new bit was blood spatter. Pretty neat.<\/p>\n

I still have issues with some of the “coincidences” that occur, but the books are otherwise fascinating and enjoyable to I just place those coincidences into my suspension of disbelief bin and get on with the story.<\/p>\n

These books are written so you should easily be able to start anywhere in the series without having read the previous books.
