Tot stof vergaan

Kathy Reichs's background as a forensic anthropologist really shines through, but I wonder how much of that was planned versus evolved during writing.

The book delves into some heavy themes, and I found myself reflecting on how trauma shapes the characters' choices. Was that intentional or just part of the realistic storytelling?

The setting adds such a unique atmosphere to the mystery—I'm curious whether the choice was driven by personal experience, research, or narrative needs.
