Editor reviews

"Hang on tight!" (Harlan Coben) "Breathless." ( Sunday Times) "An addictive thriller full of gritty details and fast frenetic action." ( Sunday Mirror) "High Energy, action packed reading that'll keep your heart rate high and your attention glued to the pages...To be able to maintain such a high level of action and suspense is a real skill and Simon Kernick is a master of the thriller." ( Damp Pebbles) "A series? By Simon Kernick? Yes please! [A] powerful, fast moving and intoxicating tale." ( Love Reading) "The Bone Field is one of those intriguing novels that surreptitiously gets under your skin." ( Jaffa Reads Too) "An adrenaline rush of a read." ( My Chestnut Reading Tree) "A heart pounding, blood pressure raising thriller...Gird your loins for a fast paced read, full of thrills, spills and unrelenting action." ( Raven Crime Reads) "9/10. When it comes to a white knuckle action ride nobody does it better." ( Peterborough Telegraph) "Judging by the pace, the twists and the turns that energise The Bone Field, it could be a series well worth following." ( Shots eZine) "The only thing that bothers me about that is the long wait until the next book in The Bone Field." ( Off-The-Shelf Books )

Unfinished!

Enjoyed this audiobook, but felt let down by the "non-ending".

I've purchased many of Simon Kernick's audiobooks so surprised that this book appears unfinished.

Narrator great though.

Long winded

Not a bad story but a bit long winded and boring at times. I fell asleep several times while listening! Could have been condensed and read by someone with a more interesting voice, a few different dialects maybe as it was difficult at times to know which character was which! So....... only three stars from me.

Can't get enough of the story!!!!

I purchased the book yesterday and I haven't been able to stop listening. The story is filled with lots of twists and turns. A wonderful crime thriller and it's nice to have Tina Boyd back in the storyline. Thank you Simon Kernick for a wonderfully well written crime story.

Enjoyable

Very fast moving gripping plot with a twist at the end. Unfortunately not a stand alone book though - two many loose ends not tied up!!

Another great chapter for Ray Mason

I enjoyed the pace tjis book is read at. there are no prolonged unecessary detailed descriptions. I loved the mix of established characters and new ones. This book has left me wanting to here more.

Seriously Good

What did you like most about The Bone Field?

I have never read any of Simon Kernick's work and was very impressed. There are so many twists and turns, lots of characters - Im really surprised it hasn't been turned into a TV drama - the cliff hanger was a bit annoying as the next one in the series isnt even out

Great read

I really enjoyed this listen, story line good (apart from why are you going into a basement in the dark etc!) and narrator excellent too.
