When the first time I heard the name Déjà Dead, I really wanted to know what was the French world meaning. After few days reading, I guessed that my poor French language knowledge could not help me to find the answer. But this book really intrigued me into reading it. At the first time, I didn’t find what a good book it was. The writer, Kathy Reichs is a forensic anthropologist. She not only performances perfect in her job, but also wrote an excellent book for people.
The story had happened in Montreal 15 years ago in downtown area. When the first died body was founded, the main characteristic Temperance Brennan believed that it was not a simple case. Few weeks later, police officers found another four bodies. Dr. Brennan realized that these were not isolated deaths and if she wanted police officers to find this brutal murderer. With the final truth was discovered day by day, Tempe also got deep in dangerous. Because the background of this story was located in Montreal, every time when I read it at midnight, I really scared. The feeling was like the murderer could suddenly occur in my home. Actually it was a foolish idea but the writer showed us how well she could write a novel. When I read the book, I cannot believe it was written by an unprofessional writer, a forensic anthropologist.
From my eyes, it is really a good mystery book. The used her professional knowledge introduced us how a forensic anthropologist works and explained some details how her character goes about determining the age, sex and cause of death when she had only bones to work with, that really makes me feel great
