Summary: Perfect, If you Like This Kind of Book
Comment: I have read the whole series and watched Ms. Burke's writing become stronger and more enticing. This one was almost a bit too much for me. People have said cruel things such as the only interesting character is a dog, too many characters, killer not developed, etc. I can't agree with any of that. This book is superb. Complex, compassionate, interesting, surprising, capitivating. I wanted to put it down because it was making me scared. This killer became too real and she went too far into his personality for my comfort, but the book was so good I couldn't stop. Yes, something startling happens in the beginning of the book, and I wonder what would happen next because there was so much book left. Burke gives us our money's worth to the VERY END, and it's a long book. My only complaint, is that she brought me a little too close to the motivations and pleasures of the killer for my comfort. Where did she learn to do that? Too much information for my enjoyment, but it's a talent I have to admire. I fear now she won't be able to go back. All of the books will be this scary. Yes, it did seem odd that Jan Burke would create such a perfect killer and then work the night shift in a dark, deserted building, but her Irene Kelly is an independent cuss. She deserves a break of good luck in the next book. My favorite one of the series was HOCUS. Burke matured from the earlier books, developed her characters, and her story line, and didn't scare the BEJESUS out of the reader the way she did with BONES. I hope she'll go back to the intelligent book that's not so scary. This killer really gets it though. Perfect punishment. Perfect book. Too perfect. :) I'm still scared.

Summary: Bones by Jan Burke
Comment: As a first-time reader of Jan Burke, I wasn't sure what to expect. What I got was an incredibly suspenseful story that was incredibly well-written.
Irene Kelly, a newspaper reporter, has been following the story of a missing woman, Julia Sayre, for four years. Julia's daughter repeatedly checks in with Irene to see if she's come up with any information on her mother's whereabouts. Then, Nick Parrish is caught after killing another woman. Parrish had been a neighbor at the time Julia Sayre went missing. He agrees to reveal the body's whereabouts if he is spared the death penalty, but not all is what it seems.
The book takes several twists and turns, never letting up on the suspense. Anyone that likes a suspenseful story won't be able to put this book down. The action never stops. This book is a great book to read if you're looking for an exciting read with lots of twists and turns. I'd highly recommend it.
