It all starts when Dr Temperance Brennan finds a box on her porch. Inside is a fresh human eyeball with GPS coordinates etched into it. They lead her to a macabre discovery in a Benedictine Monastery,and soon after she discovers a mummified corpse in a state park.
There seems to be no pattern to these killings,except that each mimics a killing connected to something a younger Tempe experienced,or barely escaped. Someone is targeting her,and she needs to figure out why before they strike again.
And then her daughter Katy disappears. Someone is playing a dangerous game with Tempe.
And they won't stop until they have taken everything from her.
