3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing 16 Nov 2011
By Boof TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
This was my first foray into husband-and-wife-team Tania Carver's books, the first two which have somehow passed me by and which I now think I should have read first as I had heard good things about them, only to be somewhat let down by Cage of Bones.

The book opens with a couple of builders making their way into a derilict building and being confronted with a small feral child who has been locked up in a cage made out of human bones. The boy is whisked to hospital and the police called in to investigate who he was and how he ended up here. Around the same time, a young woman who has been working as a prostitute is kidnapped and flees her capter only to then be knocked over by an oncoming car. While these cases my seem unrelated, hints are dropped to the reader that all may not be what it seems.

The above paragraph is not what I had a problem with; I was on board with the boy in the cage and the terrified fleeing woman, but where I had a problem was the other part of the story (which I really can't go into detail about as it would spoil the book). I don't have a problem suspending my belief, afterall I read enough crime fiction, but this was almost bordering on the ridiculous. Again this part of the plot on its own may have been belivable but linking it back to the boy in the cage didn't sit well with me at all.

The other problem I had with this book was the narrative: Most sentences started without using he, she, I, they etc for example "Perhaps they would love his work at the demolition company so much he'd be promoted. Move on up the company until he was top man. Cam smiled. Walked on.... Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars Really good read 10 Feb 2013
By Landmartin
Format:Paperback
This is the first book I've read by this (joint) author and won't be the last. Easy to read in bites. The style of the writing is sometimes like dot points but I found this retains interest. Will read more in this style.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unputdownable 2 Mar 2012
By Dr. David W. Price
Format:Paperback
Discovered this book in a 3 for £5 pile.Much too good for that sort of treatment.
Leads a very satisfying journey into the twisted and macabre behaviour of various members of society without relying on lurid sensationalism.

3.0 out of 5 stars Detective Inspecitor Philip Brennan is back 1 Oct 2011
By C. Bannister TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Having read both The Creeper which I thought was excellent and The Surrogate I pre-ordered Cage of Bones. I'm sorry to say I was disappointed.

I found the premise to the whole crime completely unbelievable. The characters of the police in thee Surrogate drew me into the story but even they felt a little flat in this book. This is despite DI Philip Brennan's back story being explored in more depth.

The story itself has plenty of blood and guts in it, a little too much for my liking, so if you are prepared to suspend belief and enjoy a fast paced story this may be the one for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not a zoo in sight 12 Mar 2013
By Mrs. Jean Northfield
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I like the characters, the guy has a past that links the plot of this all up. It was a really good read ( I would not say brilliant ). But I will now read the others. If you like a good drama/detective book you'll enjoy.

By V. Croucher
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
As I lived there for years I found this especially entertaining -if you can call rather grisly murder entertaining . It was a book that kept me reading until 2 a.m. always a good sign

3.0 out of 5 stars Explicit, brutal page turner. 19 Feb 2013
By Kate the Great
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is the second book of this series I have read. The violence is brutal and descriptive, the characters are well developed but after the first book it was just a little predictable. I would read another but hope the author doesn't stay on the same formula.
