qu33nofbookz 's review for:
Bones of Betrayal
by Jefferson Bass
Lots of this has repetitive lines from previous books so I skipped a bit. Also skipped all the step by step driving directions when Dr. Brockton traveled.
If I were a medical examiner I would be weary of working in Knoxville. So far in 4 books and a year in the timeline they have fired 1 for incompetence and he became a killer who killed his replacement within months of her getting the job before being killed himself and the next guy only got a couple months in before getting radiation poisoning from a corpse and is likely to die.
Also if you are a woman and in love with Dr. Brockton you are going to die....seriously this is a crappy and tedious plot line if it continues in further books.
This book had very little of the body farm in it it just mostly mentioned and very little at that.
Another annoyance is that Dr. Brockton's family is in the previous 3 books but there is neither hide nor hair mentioned of them until a comment about his grandsons on the second to last page. It's like the authors forgot he had one until the last second. I don't know about you but if I were exposed to radiation strong enough to give me radiation poison and was on the news I would call my family to reassure them I was okay or they would be calling to check on me. Never happens in this book, like they are in a black hole here and forgotten.
Lastly this book was way to preachy about war and weapons of mass destruction, mainly the nuclear bomb. Yes we get it, bombs bad, we'll all kill each other and destroy everything. But beating the characters and morals of the guys who created it 70 years ago isn't going to change anything and we weren't there in a very different time then how we live now. Get off your high horse and write about what your books subject is billed and stop trying to preach your views at me.
I hope the next book is better.
