Disturbing the Bones.

"Disturbing the Bones" is a thrilling novel by Andrew Davis and Jeff Biggers that combines global peace struggles with a family drama. The story follows Molly Moore, a young scientist who uncovers ancient villages during an archaeological dig in Illinois, and the discovery of the bones of Florence Jenkins, a civil rights reporter who went missing in 1978. Florence's son, Randall Jenkins, a Chicago homicide detective, becomes involved in the investigation, which intersects with a defense program and a nuclear disaster in Siberia. The intense action and intricate plot make this novel stand out from typical disaster thrillers. [Extracted from the article]
