Two Nights by Kathy Reichs
4.0

Not sure if Reichs has an intention of turning this into a series but if so, this is a good start. I like Sunday she reminds me a bit of Lisbeth from the Girl with The Dragon Tattoo. Lots of baggage, loner but kick ass. I loved watching her trying to piece together what was happening. I also liked seeing her evolve. By the end of the book she is slightly different than when it began, leaving so much room for more.

This book is different than the Brennan series, so if that is what you are looking for you will be disappointed. Aside from the obvious lack of scientific stuff I think having Sunday as more of an outsider instead of someone looking at crimes from the inside gives the character that much more latitude and also that much more to do to get to the answers. She doesn't have to stay within the lines and can color outside the box, but she is smart and still has some in's with the law so she is outside but not too outside not to make it work.

Overall I really liked this book, it kept my attention and I found the characters intriguing.
