Flash and Bones by Kathy Reichs

As a long-time follower of Kathy Reichs and Temperance Brennan in both books and by watching Bones, I was really disappointed with this book. This is a nice, simple, little mystery. Simple is the key, though. After the richness of the earlier books, I was expecting more from the story. There is no advancement of Tempe’s love life, and the Canadian contingent is absent from the book other than a phone call with Andrew Ryan. The novel tells the story of a cold case reopened with the appearance of a body in an oil drum close the the Charlotte Motor Speedway during a race weekend. Tempe works with the Charlotte police department, raceway security (the head of which was a former police officer and investigated the original disappearance), and the FBI. The cold case features a young woman and her boyfriend who disappeared several years prior to the start of the novel. I found this book to be clumsy, and some of the plot lines seemed really forced. I would recommend that people skip this book and read earlier books in the series, such as Death du Jour or Bare Bones.

    One thing I’ve noticed is the fact that there are plenty of myths regarding the banks intentions while talking about property foreclosure. One misconception in particular is the fact the bank desires your house. The lender wants your dollars, not your own home. They want the bucks they loaned you together with interest. Steering clear of the bank will still only draw some sort of foreclosed conclusion. Thanks for your article.
