<p><b>''Chilling and vital. . . sensitive and thought-provoking'' <i>The Times<br></i></b><br><b>An anthropologist working with forensic teams and victims'' families to investigate crimes against humanity in Latin America explores what science can tell us about the lives of the dead in this haunting account of grief, the power of ritual, and a quest for justice.</b><br><br><i>"Exhumation can divide brothers and restore fathers, open old wounds and open the possibility of regeneration-of building something new with the pile of broken mirrors that is loss and mourning."</i><br><br>Over the course of Guatemala''s thirty-year armed conflict -the longest ever in Central America-over 200,000 people were killed. During Argentina''s military dictatorship in the seventies, over 30,000 people were disappeared. Today, forensic anthropologists in each country are gathering evidence to prove atrocities and seek justice. But these teams do more than just study skeletons-they work to repair families
