And First Bones gets under Tempe's skin with the untold story of her first case and her decision to become a forensic anthropologist. Dr Kathy Reichs is a professional forensic anthropologist. She has worked for decades with chief medical examiners,the FBI,and even a United Nations Tribunal on Genocide.However,she is best known for her internationally bestselling Temperance Brennan novels,which draw on her remarkable experience to create the most vividly authentic,true-to-life crime thrillers on the market and which are the inspiration for the hit TV series Bones.
