Books by an Exciting Author Added to our Collection
Kathy Reich is a forensic anthropologist who serves as a Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of North Carolina-Charlotte. She has published over 15 novels. Her books were the inspiration for the TV Series “BONES”.
We have four of her new books in the Media Center. Cross Bones , Virals, Bones to Ashes , and Monday Mourning are all ready for checkout. Forensic Mysteries are very popular with our students. The stories include real life details that make them so believable. Students can easily imagine themselves in a special crime unit looking for clues to solve the mysteries. http://kathyreichs.com/
