Bones - Série 1

Dr. Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) is a highly skilled forensic anthropologist who works at the Jeffersonian Institute and writes novels as a sideline. Law enforcement calls on her to assist with murder investigations when the standard methods of identifying a body are useless – when the remains are badly decomposed, burned or destroyed beyond recognition. Brennan's special expertise lies in her uncanny ability to read clues left behind in the victim's bones. Brennan often finds herself teamed with Special Agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) of the FBI's Homicide Investigations Unit. A former Army sniper, Booth mistrusts science and scientists – the "squints", as he calls them, who pore over the physical evidence. Booth believes the key to solving crimes lies in discovering the truth from those still alive – witnesses and suspects – through good old-fashioned investigative work. Brennan and Booth frequently clash both professionally and personally, but so far the chemistry between them has only played out in a fictionalised account in Brennan's latest mystery novel.
