Kathy Reichs - You're Booked

This week we are entertaining crime writing royalty on the podcast as we welcome the legend that is Dr Kathy Reichs! Kathy is a forensic anthropologist and academic who, amongst many other things, taught FBI agents how to detect and recover human remains. She used her forensic knowledge to create the character Temperance Brennan and the first Temperance book, Deja Dead, won the 1997 Ellis Award for Best First Novel. Many other novels followed including Death du Jour, Deadly Decisions, Fatal Voyage, Monday Mourning and many more. She also co-authored the Virals young adult series with her son, Brendan Reichs. Her latest thriller is Fire and Bones. Kathy also produced and wrote the hit TV series, Bones, which is based on her work and her novels. We talked to her about the mystery of the mobile library, the joy of audio books and the best forensic science books for kids!
