The Bone Tree
by Greg Iles
I did not realize when I picked up this book that it was book two in a series. I have not read Natchez Burning, book one. Having not reading book one, I did suffer a little reading book two. It jumped right into the story a little while after the first book. This was not such the problem for me as I was able to quickly piece together a good idea of what transpired in the first book and who the major key players were from both the good and bad sides. In fact, I had no issues that I got all the way to page 276 before I took a break. This is something as this book is a whopping tome at 816 pages long! My issue was that I could not gain an instant connection with the characters. It took me a while to get this connection. However once I did, I was all in.
This is not just a book but a whole production. Mr. Iles knows how to spin a good story. Although if you do not like graphic gore or crude language than take this as your warning.
