The plotting was solid; it was definitely a page-turner. I also enjoyed reading a novel set in undeveloped New Zealand. On the other hand, the central character irritated me at times. She's smart. She knows her profession. But she also considers a man as a love interest within minutes of meeting him. Seriously? I'll read the next volume in the series, but I'm still up in the air about this one.

Definitely riveting! Alexa Glock is a forensic odontologist living and working in New Zealand on a visa from the US. Her brother from their home state in the Carolinas has come to decompress from problems at home and reconnect with Alexa while trekking a difficult trail. First Alexa finds a skeleton of a murdered man, then everything goes wrong. Then her brother finds the body of a currently missing hiker. Bring in the law enforcement team (by helicopter). Fast paced and with lots of things to learn. I love the realistic detailing of this beautiful country including hiking trails and violent weather. I requested and received a free ebook copy from Poisoned Pen Press via NetGalley. Thank you! nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

HTML: A nature trek turns dangerous when the wilderness gives up its bones... New Zealand's remote Milford Track seems the perfect place for forensic investigator Alexa Glock to reconnect with her brother Charlie, with whom she hasn't spent much time since they were kids. Their backpacking trip seems ill-fated from the start, though, when she must stop on the way to examine nine skeletons??most likely Māori tribespeople??whose graves have been unearthed by highway construction. Before she opens the first casket, a Māori elder gives her a dire warning: "The viewing of bones can unleash misfortune to the living. Or worse." Though Alexa dismisses his words as superstitious, they soon come back to haunt her as the idyllic hike takes a sinister turn. First, Charlie is aloof and resentful of the time Alexa has spent at work. Then a rock avalanche nearly carries her away as it reveals the skeletal remains of someone who has clearly been stabbed to death. When a fellow hiker goes missing and is later found dead, Alexa has all she can do to focus on the science as she investigates two murders, while trying not to become the third vi Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
