Summary
What if the figure that haunted your nightmares as a 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 to 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 sceptical 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.

So disappointed
Started off quite well but became so improbable as to make the story nonsensical. Jonathan Keebles narration was, as always excellent, but even so it was a struggle to get to the end

Great start, ending a little lacking
Story - 3.75 Stars
I loved that this book was set around an urban legend and the first 75% had me completely hooked. I did however feel that the last 25% felt like it lost a bit steam but it was ultimately a satisfactory ending. The narration was great though. I'd be curious to find out if this was the start of a series or not as I would read/listen to more with the main characters from this.

The Bone Keeper
I enjoyed this thriller. There are twists and turns as we discover the story of The Bone Killer and the characters who surround it. The narrator did well giving each character a voice with a Liverpudlian accent. There were times of sadness, fear and relief within the book. The ending felt a little rushed or short but overall I felt this was a good story.

fairly good
I got this book based on the narrator Jonathan Keeble reading it. I was disappointed on the lack of graphic murders based on its name I thought it would have more descriptions. I did enjoy the story the characters were likeable if some what annoying. but i would read more by this author

Audio was better than paperback
I originally started this book in paperback but after a year (yes I know, long time, I get distracted easily) I gave up and got rid of it. But still wanting to know what happened, I bit the bullet and got it on audio. The narrator was good and read each role well, I got used to the accent quickly, but the story itself went on a bit and although I didn't expect what happened to happen in the story, I wasn't overly impressed.

Fantastically dark
Just my kinda book, a modern folk tale that twists between paranormal horror and detective serial killer. Liverpudlian X-Files!
