Helpful Score: 2

The latest book in the Temperance Brennan series, 206 Bones follows the action as Brennan returns to Montreal to explore a series of recovered remains. Even as she struggles to find evidence in the remains that will allow her to identify each of the individuals and provide information on their causes of death, however, Brennan herself is threatened.
The book is interesting and generally well-written, but I gave it only three stars because it was extraordinarily predictable in terms of who did what and why. It's worth reading for the character development, but not a particularly good mystery in my opinion.
Like all of the books by Reichs, 206 Bones has no real connection with the T.V. show Bones. Although the lead female characters in both the book and the show share a name and an occupation, the similarities end there.
