" Have read all his previous books, which are the Jonathan Stride series and great books which I would highly recommend, so this one was a first for me, as it had a new lead character, Cab Bolton, as the lead investigator here, but got to know him pretty quickly and he's a keeper. The story starts with a fire in a house six years previously, where a young girl had crept in to feed a kitten and almost burnt to death in what was the murder of a mother and her two boys by arson. Fast forward six years and the girl herself is now murdered. The chief suspect is a teacher, who was one a golf pro, and he was accused of having an affair with the girls sister when he taught her at high school. So, they were just allegations and the girl herself denied them, but now the reader wonders if there was truth in it and is this man really a suspect? His wife is totally convinced of his innocence and sets out to prove it, pointing Cab in another direction, when she starts to hear stories from the girls past and what really happened in The Bone House on the night of the fire. Great read, will keep you guessing to the very end. "

" A riveting, well written psychological thriller with well developed characters I had difficulty putting down. A well liked teacher is falsely accused of having a torrid affair with a student. Her sister is found dead on a beach in Florida near where the teacher and his wife are staying. As the story progresses, the teacher is not the one who has gotten away with murder. Nicely done. "

" engaging story. kept me wondering who did it. Was intrigued as to whether the husband really carried on with the high schooler. I found Cab interesting and would love to see him in other books. Freeman's books alway "

" The Bone House is a very good murder mystery with multiple story lines and complex characters. Most of the story takes place in northern Wisconsin and is described in enough detail to make me want to visit some day. It's a whodunnit that you won't get until nearing the end. "
