The Bone Keeper

By: Luca Veste

Narrated by: Elizabeth Sastre

"The Bone Keeper will corrupt your days and shatter your nights." (Val McDermid)

"A dark and brilliant thriller from a writer who just gets better and better. The Bone Keeper is tense, chilling and HUGELY scary." (Mark Billingham)

"Luca Veste proves you don't need to go to the Bayou or the Everglades to find something terrifying in the deep, dark woods. Sometimes evil is lurking just around the corner. An entertainingly nasty piece of work." (Christopher Brookmyre)

What if the figure that haunted your nightmares as child, the myth of the man in the woods, was real? He'll slice your flesh. Your bones he'll keep.

Twenty years ago, four teenagers went exploring in the local woods, trying to find the supposed home of the Bone Keeper. Only three returned.

Now, a woman is found wandering the streets of Liverpool, horrifically injured, claiming to have fled the Bone Keeper. Investigating Officer DC Louise Henderson must convince skeptical colleagues that this urban myth might be flesh and blood.

But when a body is unearthed in the woodland the woman has fled from, the case takes on a much darker tone.

The disappeared have been found. And their killer is watching every move the police make.

Not terrible

Its not a bad book, for s psychological thriller. It was good up until 3/4 of the book and then fizzled out at the end. I would still recommend as a decent book.

is it man or monster

this book really grabs you within the first few pages. a really great mystery / suspense novel that kept me intrigued until the very end. I liked the narrators as well.

well done

i purchased this book a couple years ago but as a teacher, i never had the time to read for myself. Now that i am no longer in education i decided to get the audio version as i worked on projects. I am so glad i did! The build up was great and i could picture it as i was listening. The book did not disappoint!

Chilling and suspenseful

This book has great pacing and an addictive quality. The mystery is engaging and well crafted. I highly recommend it!

Intriguing but..

Resolution of the story wasn’t what I was expecting. Could be a better ending in my opnion.
