NASCAR is the setting and a new man has entered the scene. Ryan hasn't totally disappeared - but his presence in this one was only a matter of emails and a couple of phone calls. Charlie Hunt is still in Charlotte, but was working a big case - and according to Katy, Tempe's daughter, has been seen escorting other women around town. I still have trouble accepting a character named "Cotton," though - just a little too southern. And there was all that weirdness about her almost ex-husband and his buxom young fiancee's wedding - it seemed to me far more implausible than the murders.
Reichs does always manage to come up with creative ways to get Tempe almost killed, I wonder if there is a little hostility going on there.
As for the title - not my favorite - the pun is just a little too strained. Good story, though.
