Break No Bones by Kathy Reichs

This episode has Tempe Brennan in South Carolina filling in as a teacher at an archeology field school. But she and her students find a recent burial among the Native Indian burials. She’s asked to stay in Charleston because the coroner there (who’s also Tempe’s friend) is ill. Soon another body is found hanging in the forest, and then another washes up in a barrel. Of course, Tempe can’t keep her nose out of it and gets involved finding out why these people died, who did it and why. And during this week, she’s sharing a friend’s home with her estranged husband and her boyfriend. Yeah, right…like that would happen.

This is a good book for a plane ride or rainy day. And, of course, there’s plenty of fodder for the next book.
