The Reconstruction Karl Wiegers

When forensic sculptor Jessica Sanford of Portland, Oregon, completes a facial reconstruction on unidentified remains found in a forest grave, she is shocked to discover that she has a personal connection to the victim. Jessica is then driven to identify the victim, confirm their relationship, and deliver justice for her death.

Jessica cleverly exploits connections from her past in her quest for the victim's identity. Once she understands their link, Jessica finds herself more immersed in this case than in anything she has done before. Those involved in the apparent homicide are still out there--and Jessica intends to find them. Her relationships, her career, and her life are at risk as she strives to reconstruct the victim's last days.


Not just about uncovering a crime and hunting the suspects, The Reconstruction is also about a young woman's search for her own identity. Jessica is a strong, independent woman who strives to balance her career, her passions, and her social life. The reader accompanies Jessica as she applies all of her skills and all of her smarts to try to solve the mystery of a lifetime.

Readers who enjoy suspenseful mysteries and forensics procedurals will find The Reconstruction engrossing.
