Title: Solid book, 'tho a bit disappointing
Product review: I've read all the Tempe Brennan books and enjoyed each one. Sometimes, I find Tempe a hard character to like: she's written as being a know-all who finds all the clues the police miss. But the mysteries are solid and the forensic techniques brilliantly described so that the reader doesn't fall asleep from information overload. I do get a little distracted by all of Reich's road names and directions. I found the ending disappointing. Why does the protangonist have to behave in an utterly stupid way in order to get into trouble? There are better plot devices that would enable the same result without turning the character into an idiot.
