Only a few times in my life have I truly read a book cover to cover in one sitting. At the top of the list are two compelling tales - No Bone Unturned and now, Little Pink House - both by Jeff Benedict.

For those interested in forensic science and human anthropology Jeff Benedict's new book on Dr. Douglas Owsley's (The Smithsonian) study of the 9,600 year old Kennewick Man is a must read. In No Bone Unturned Mr. Benedict has managed to take this scientific wonder and wrap it in a detective story that makes for a great read. I was rivited by the details of this important study and landmark legal case. As an author of several books Benedict has his pen on the pulse of investigative reportage.
