Temperance Brennan Books in Order, by Kathy Reichs

As a forensic anthropologist, Dr. Temperance “Tempe” Brennan examines human remains at crime scenes when the flesh is too damaged for a coroner to gather evidence (victims of advanced decomposition, mutilation, arson, etc.).

Brennan is one of just fifty board-certified forensic anthropologists in North America. This mystery series is written by author Kathy Reichs.
