The Legacy of the Bones

The Baztan Trilogy, Book 2

De: Dolores Redondo

Narrado por: Emma Gregory

The second book in Dolores Redondo’s atmospheric Baztan trilogy, featuring Inspector Amaia Salazar. With masterful storytelling and a detective to rival Sarah Lund, this Spanish bestselling series has taken Europe by storm.

A year after arresting Jason Medina for the rape and murder of his step-daughter, Detective Inspector Amaia Salazar has one last duty to complete before starting her maternity leave – attending Medina’s trial.

When the trial is suddenly called off, Amaia is appalled. But the judge had no choice. Jason Medina has committed suicide in the bathroom of the courthouse, leaving behind a cryptic note addressed to Amaia: the single word ‘Tarttalo’.

What message was Medina trying to send with this obscure reference to Basque mythology? To unravel the truth, Amaia must return once again to the Baztan valley, her family home and the place where she feels most vulnerable. As the investigation becomes more complicated and more personal, those closest to Amaia will be placed in mortal danger…

Loved it

It’s hard to say what makes it such a great listen. The story that is so intricate, the language that is so beautiful, the insights to the female’s mind or the wonderful narrator.

Unnerving to hear British Accent

Performance was good. Just didn't like a British accent reading Hispanic characters. Especially after you hear how well the first book sounded. Story is engaging and interesting.

Mystery, crime, twists, and much more!

This is the second book in the Baztan Trilogy. I first encountered this story on Netflix where I watched the portrayal of the story through film. It intrigued me to understand the intricacies of the story better by listening to the books. I was not disappointed in either and I recommend this brilliant trilogy.

The second book follows the first by untangling the reasons behind the murders in the first and uncovers new elements to the case, linked to the history of the town and all the people in it. It involves cults, murder, betrayal, and much more!

Great story!! Can’t stop listening!!

Loved the story which keeps you wanting to see what happens. You will love this book

Amazing Sequel

I began listening to the books after watching and enjoying the Netflix trilogy. Being more detailed, the books are incredible! Emma Gregory does a great job of narrating this one but I got used to the narrator of part one and I can’t stand when they change readers in the middle of a series! It’s like when they change actors in a show for the same character! What’s more, Gregory mispronounces several words/names in Spanish/Castilian which were pronounced correctly by the excellent reader of book one. Small gripes but worth mentioning. Can’t wait to listen to the final part!

Wonderful narrator !

Brilliant writing, I was completely engrossed in this thriller. It’s Intensely visual. I’ll Read/listen to everything she writes. Highly recommended!

Another great story

I think I will read everything that Delores Redondo writes! Performance was truly exceptional!! Captivating.

Better than the first volume

It seems the author took some time to review her first volume and adjusted by adding a bit of reality into her second volume. Still one is left with an impression where occult ends and reality begins. Taro cards, visions and Agent Dupree. Probably Agent Dupree is the occult
