Cut to the Bone

A Body Farm Novel

De: Jefferson Bass

Narrado por: Tom Stechschulte

Jefferson Bass’s Cut to the Bone, the long-awaited prequel to his New York Times bestselling mystery series, turns the clock back to reveal the Body Farm's creation—and Dr. Bill Brockton's deadly duel with a serial killer.

In the summer of 1992, Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton and Tennessee Senator Albert Gore begin their long-shot campaign to win the White House. In the sweltering hills of Knoxville at the University of Tennessee, Dr. Bill Brockton, the bright, ambitious young head of the Anthropology Department, launches an unusual—some would call it macabre—research facility, unlike any other in existence.

Brockton is determined to revolutionize the study of forensics to help law enforcement better solve crime. But his plans are derailed by a chilling murder that leaves the scientist reeling from a sense of déjà vu. Followed by another. And then another: bodies that bear eerie resemblances to cases from Brockton’s past.

But as the body count rises, the victims’ fatal injuries grow more and more distinctive—a spiral of death that holds dark implications for Brockton...and everyone he holds dear.

Just Amazingly Thrilling!

Wow! I am hooked on Jefferson Bass and will now devour the series, I am certain! This book was really great -- even though we knew who the killer was from very early on. What we didn't know was how the macabre events would play out, and that, believe it or not, made it very, very engaging. The narration is terrific, the characters so relatable, the story line totally a page turner. No fault to be found. Five stars in my book!

Jefferson Bass at their best

This was far and away my favorite of the series. I purchased this in audiobook and found myself still awake at 4 a.m. because I couldn't turn it off! Kept me on the edge of my seat and, while I could anticipate some of the plot twists, it was still a good book. Highly recommend.

Tom Stechschulte is awesome in his narration.

Good book, love this series.

I really enjoyed this book...except the snake and snake dreams! I always learn something new from the Jefferson Bass books.

intense great story

I enjoyed this book. performance was excellent. overall one the best I have listen to.

Awesome awesome! Great story and so interesting!

I actually grew up not far from all this and never knew what was happening at the time. I have always loved forensics and work in the field now. It’s a great story and very accurate. Also you should read the original book about the program.

Scarfed It Up!

This was one of those that said "yuck" one minute and the next minute saying "don't trust him" and then shutting your eyes and screaming, "NO!" So worth the read or listening! Keep these stories coming!

Good Read

The book was great...the ending was a little far fetched & left me wishing the ending was a little more believable.

couldn't put it down

I had a hard start getting interest in the very beginning. I'm not sure if it was the book or just I had a lot going on at the time. By the 2nd or 3rd chapter I was hooked.
This is not a book for those that are faint of heart. It had some gruesomeness to it. I found it easy to follow. I thought that the narrator did a great job. After my little rough start I couldn't put the book down.

Body Farm

I enjoyed this book that tells the story of how the body farm started in Tennesse. So thankful for this that helps catch killers. Not an exciting read, but an interesting one.

No one write like …
