Bone Box

By: Faye Kellerman

Narrated by: Richard Ferrone

In this thrilling chapter in Faye Kellerman's best-selling series, Rina Lazarus makes a shocking discovery in the woods of her upstate New York community that leads her husband, police detective Peter Decker, through a series of gruesome, decades-old unsolved murders, pointing to a diabolical serial killer who's been hiding in plain sight.

On a bright and crisp September morning, while walking a bucolic woodland trail, Rina Decker stumbles upon human remains once buried deep beneath the forest grounds. Immediately she calls her husband, Peter, a former detective lieutenant with the LAPD, now working for the local Greenbury police. Within hours a vista of beauty and tranquility is transformed into a frenetic crime scene. The body has been interred for years, and there is scant physical evidence at the gravesite: a youthful skeleton, a skull wound, and long, dark strands of hair surrounding the bony frame. As Decker and his partner, Tyler McAdams, further investigate, they realize that they're most likely dealing with a missing student from the nearby Five Colleges of Upstate - a well-known and well-respected consortium of higher learning where Rina works.

And when more human remains are found in the same area, Decker and McAdams know this isn't just a one-off murder case. Short-staffed, and with no convenient entry into the colleges, Decker enlists Rina's help to act as the eyes and ears of campus gossip. Winding their way through a dangerous labyrinth of steely suspects and untouchable academics, Decker, McAdams, and Rina race to protect their community from a psychopathic killer still in the area - and on the hunt for a fresh victim.

Wonderful addition to Decker/Lazarus tradition

I've been a fan of Faye Kellerman for all my adult reading existence. I'm overawed at the way this series just keeps getting stronger and stronger. The characters are richer and the stories more addictive as the main characters mature in their lives and professions. I just hope she never stops writing!

Narrator was so monotone

It was a good book but the narrator really lost me. Half the time I didn't know who was talking because their was no difference in the tone.

Bones indeed

Great story. Suspenseful, keeps you guessing. Love the reader. Want more books from Faye kellerman
The

Tangled web

The plot is as complex as all Decker/Lazarus titles. There is ample suspense. It starts off exciting as Rina makes a ghastly discovery while hiking alone. Decker and McAdams do admirable detecting. Delightful cameos by former colleagues Marge and Oliver make the book even more enjoyable. Another recommended good listen, well-narrated by Richard Ferrone.

Faye Kellerman/Richard Ferrone: PERFECTION!

I hadn’t picked up a Faye Kellerman mystery in years, but I can’t resist anything narrated by Richard Ferrone. She’s even better than I remember, and Ferrone is perfect for this intricate plot. You won’t be disappointed.

Great series

I just finished listening to the whole series from beginning. I love the way they evolve and teach the Jewish culture as well as give the woman’s perspective. the only disappointing part is that the last three books were read by Mr. Ferrone. His voice would be perfect for the Pendergast novels or a Stephen King book, but they do a great injustice to this series. No ability to tell when a woman is talking. I miss Mitch Greenberg’s wonderful reading of all the books up to the last three.

Great Book

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would recommend this book to a friend. Faye Kellerman is always excellent.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Rina is my favorite character due to her competence in juggling all the demands on her time.

BONE BOX

I love Faye Kellerman writing she is good and this book was no different than any of her books I very read before, the characters were great . the story line is great, fast paced and I want to spoil it, the ending is great!

Loved It!

The narrator is one of my favorite's, always love his work. His deep base voice adds a gritty depth to this author's work that enhances Detective Decker's credibility and toughness. I love the whole series, but pairing with Ferrone as narrator was a brilliant move.

Good read.

I loved the narrator...it was perfect. He sounds like G.W. Bailey from "Major Crimes."
