About this product

Product Information

Unknown bones, untold secrets, and unsolved crimes from the distant past cast ominous shadows on the present in the dazzling new thriller from "New York Times" bestselling author Tess Gerritsen. Present day: Julia Hamill has made a horrifying discovery on the grounds of her new home in rural Massachusetts: a skull buried in the rocky soil human, female, and, according to the trained eye of Boston medical examiner Maura Isles, scarred with the unmistakable marks of murder. But whoever this nameless woman was, and whatever befell her, is knowledge lost to another time. . . . Boston, 1830: In order to pay for his education, Norris Marshall, a talented but penniless student at Boston Medical College, has joined the ranks of local resurrectionists those who plunder graveyards and harvest the dead for sale on the black market. Yet even this ghoulish commerce pales beside the shocking murder of a nurse found mutilated on the university hospital grounds. And when a distinguished doctor meets the same grisly fate, Norris finds that trafficking in the illicit cadaver trade has made him a prime suspect. To prove his innocence, Norris must track down the only witness to have glimpsed the killer: Rose Connolly, a beautiful seamstress from the Boston slums who fears she may be the next victim. Joined by a sardonic, keenly intelligent young man named Oliver Wendell Holmes, Norris and Rose comb the city from its grim cemeteries and autopsy suites to its glittering mansions and centers of Brahmin power on the trail of a maniacal fiend who lurks where least expected . . . and who waits for his next lethal opportunity. With unflagging suspense and pitch-perfect period detail, "The Bone Garden" deftly interweaves the thrilling narratives of its nineteenth- and twenty-first century protagonists, tracing the dark mystery at its heart across time and place to a finale as ingeniously conceived as it is shocking. Bold, bloody, and brilliant, this is Tess Gerritsen s finest achievement to date. "From the Hardcover edition.""

  • BONE GARDEN

    Tess Gerritsen has written another super duper thriller! This time the past and present collide in this historical thriller set in present day Boston. Julia Hamill unearths a human skull while she is in her yard gardening. Our heroine, Maura Isles, medical examiner, finds that the remains are of a woman, who was murdered almost two centuries ago! Now the questions are....who was she and why was she killed and by who? It flashes back to Boston in the 1830's at Harvard Medical School. A student, Norris Marshall has been discovered robbing graveyards for fresh corpses. Norris is also accused of being a serial killer and in hopes of clearing his name he enlist the help of classmates to track down the real maniac. This part of the book gets down right chilling! What ensues is deadly, bloody ...

  • The Bone Garden is a very accurate title

    I already own a few Tess Gerritsen books. She is an amazing author. And proves her talent again and again in the Bone Garden. Excitement to the very last page. Great book.

  • a thriller to keep you up

    This writer is never boring. You don't skip pages. I liked this book because it combines the past and present.
