Bones Never Lie by Kathy Reichs
This book revisits the book that was the reverse Stockholm Syndrome book (I forgot which one that was; I've been listening to this series for a while) so of course, it has kids as victims. But, the M.O. has changed. I saw one twist and one kidnapping coming, but missed the first twist. I knew Tawny was going to be back with Anike, but I did not expect that Anike was going to end up dead in a barrel. I was not surprised when Tawny ended up being Alice the hospital worker who was using that hospital as her hunting ground. I was surprised that she killed the doctor that they had originally thought was the killer. I am glad that Tempe was able to get Andrew back from his self imposed isolation while he mourned the death of his daughter and that he went back to his job. I was not surprised when Tawny kidnapped the kid that Tempe had cat-sitting for her. But I was relieved when she was able to save her. That Tawny ended up in Charlotte because Tempe helped her, and she thought that she was helping the kids she was killing in a similar manner was very strange and it's too bad we didn't get an epilogue with her trial. I was surprised when Andrew showed up at the end and asked her to marry him and just left so she could think about it. We had no Pete sightings in this book so her relationship with her "ex-husband" is still up in the air. I'm glad we got some closure from that previous book, but this was hard to stomach.
