A Conspiracy of Bones provides a peek into the field of forensic entomology via a fleeting reference to Ophiocordyceps camponoti-balzani. Zombie ants. Check it out. Why mention ants here? Anything that I do, read, hear, or see can be inspiration for the next Temperance Brennan novel. My writing process unfolds in three phases. First comes the ant Bones: The Forensic Files when my mind collects and stashes tidbits. Some info is so timely and compelling that a book practically writes itself. Other items must rest a while, intermingling and cross-pollinating until an idea for a plotline arises from the cerebral mix. Then I move to the paper phase, making lists, drawing charts, scribbling outlines, and testing whether the potential story has the muscle to grow into a book. What if this occurs, I ask myself. What if that? What setting? Bum to the chair, eyes to the screen, fingers to the keyboard. A Conspiracy of Bones: The Forensic Files was no exception. The ant gathering began years ago when a friend shared her misgivings concerning the sinking of the ferry, Estonia. Too busy with a new job to continue studying the tragedy, she offered me her trove of research materials. Intrigued, but unable to find that all important engine to drive a plotline, I let the idea lie dormant almost a decade. All labels had been cut from his clothing. Theories were wide- ranging. Was Somerton Man a post-war refugee? An assassinated cold war spy? Great stuff. I could imagine sinister links to the Estonia incident. But Somerton Man had a face and teeth and fingers. The remains, found in a heavily forested area, were badly decomposed and scattered due to scavenging by bears. My skeletal autopsy suggested a white female in her forties. The profile matched that of a local woman missing several months. Every murder is wrong, but hers seemed doubly Bones: The Forensic Files. He had thanked his advocate by taking her life. But for this novel I wanted our heroine in Dixie, not the northern woods or South Australia. While we have bears, feral hogs are a real nuisance in Bones: The Forensic Files of North Carolina. I envisioned a tragedy plagued by theories of treachery. A body bearing ominous clues. A corpse lacking identifiers. This trio could Bones: The Forensic Files. But what about context? What is going on with our heroine? How has this loss affected Tempe? Is the new boss an ally? Or, to the contrary, does this new person wish her ill? Good stuff. I began the nineteenth Brennan book at a time when bloggers and extremist talk show hosts were polluting the internet and Bones: The Forensic Files airways with hateful dialogue, unfounded conspiracy theories, and dangerous misinformation. When mainstream journalists felt compelled to fact-check the utterances of powerful figures. When listeners and readers were constantly forced to question the reliability of both the media and the media critics. A national atmosphere of suspicion and doubt. What is real and what is not? A timely backdrop. But I also wanted to bring this sense of uncertainty down to a personal level. Like Tempe, I am a private person, reluctant to divulge my secrets or express my feelings. I would break that pattern. I would share with my readers a challenge that I recently faced. I would make an aspect of this story my own. Not long ago I was diagnosed with an unerupted cerebral aneurysm. Following its serendipitous discovery, Bones: The Forensic Files doctors monitored my brain like NASA tracks asteroids. For a while all was dandy, everything in place. Then, the little bubble decided to do some shape-shifting. I underwent an embolization, a procedure in which miniature metal coils are injected to block blood flow through the arterial wall. Since the surgery, I experience the occasional migraine, but otherwise all is well. Bottom line. I have a brain oddity and headaches, so our heroine also has the dastardly duo. Do I worry about the aneurysm? Not much. Does Tempe? A bit more. And her fears about the state of her Bones: The Forensic Files parallel the central theme of Conspiracy. I test hypotheses based on items I can observe, measure, weigh, and photograph. Could I rely on my stored perceptions? Could I sort what Bones: The Forensic Files real from what was not? Take a maritime disaster, two separate forensic cases, an atmosphere Bones: The Forensic Files hate-mongering propaganda and faux news, a stressful work situation, and a personal medical calamity.
