And man can this gentleman write!!! The Bone Tree is the latest of the Penn Cage saga, that started with one on my favorite books, The Quiet Game. The way Mr. Iles has weaved us the modern South which may or may not have made strides in the progress of equal rights, evil organizations, and the machinations of family is nothing short of brilliant-- The Cage family is local royalty. Dr. Cage and his family have helped many and in his office, he treated black and white alike. Penn Cage and his daughter come home after his wife's death to start a new life. You really have to start from The Quiet Game to fully understand the good, bad and the ugly. The Bone Tree is the latest in the series. The more Cage books, the longer they get as the information is so amazing. This is an 800 page book. I have a Kindle and ordered it, but my router died so I got the hard copy. Most of the story needs the explanation and pages fly by. You will come to see there is no black or white but shades of grey. And oh my, the writing is brilliant. You will run the gamut of emotions reading The Bone Tree. I reread the latter pages many times to let things sink in. There is one more in the Penn Cage book series and cannot wait. To cry, to read with my mouth opened in amazement, to let this family and story sink in, in words of prose that read like poetry. The impact sometimes hitting you in the gut, and realizing your family has done both good and bad and created a chain of events even they couldn't have imagine. Mr. Iles has been through a lot, and for the good is newly married, but how he can write!!!!! I am ashamed I have been writing my novel for three years but there are reasons for that.. If only my words touch people, I'll do a jig. If you want brilliance, choose Greg Iles every time. You will not regret any page read. Mr. Iles, I hope one day to meet you at a signing to shake the hand of one of the best writers of our time. If you are up to date in the Cage saga, read The Bone Tree. It will change you in many ways. This is how to write classics that will last forever... Bravo, Greg Iles.

Review: Ok - This book was riveting and I couldn't stop reading as per usual, but it began getting absurd about half way through. Even though the story is full of suspense, the way Iles portrays the FBI is absolutely absurd. There's no way in hell the Feds are this stupid. Their hotel rooms are bugged, by a chamber maid no less, they allow the police station they're running the investigation out of to be compromised, allowing the murder of a most vital witness they promised to protect, and they run around like a bunch of bumpkins making silly mistakes. Lastly they allow their plane to get blown up losing all their evidence. Huh. None of these things sound remotely plausible. Then Penn walks in and murders Knox even though he's the biggest bad ass on Earth and no one's touched him in years. That's the second man Penn kills in this one book. He's quite the super hero. Untrained lawyer kills the baddest of the bad. Then of course they're is the issue of the JFK assassination..... So stupidly unnecessary! There's already a hundred things going on, the investigation is so overwhelming and detailed and follows so many threads that the reader just wants to give up. I skimmed ALL the JFK crap. The Jordan Glass interview with Castro in Cuba!? Don't even get me started. I am.finishing this series regardless. I'm hooked, and I like the bare boned story. It's all the added things I dislike. There's too much going on here. But last its the death of Caitlyn that does me in. That's when I got really pissy. It's too much and to find Tom Cage in the Bone tree was so silly as well. There's just a lot of unnecessary dramatic things that don't make much sense. It's gotten messy. Three stars. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,118,407 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,328 in Political Thrillers (Books) #1,554 in Murder Thrillers #4,544 in Suspense Thrillers | | Book 5 of 7 | Penn Cage | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (15,292) | | Dimensions | 1.36 x 5.31 x 8 inches | | Edition | Reprint | | ISBN-10 | 0062311131 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0062311139 | | Item Weight | 1.05 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 880 pages | | Publication date | February 23, 2016 | | Publisher | William Morrow Paperbacks | ## Images ![The Bone Tree: A Novel (Penn Cage, 5) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61wkag+wGGL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What can you say about a genius and his latest book? *by E***E on May 8, 2015* I have often compared Greg Iles to be our generation's Faulkner.

One of the best middle installments of a trilogy I have ever come across. *by S***. on April 8, 2017* A stellar follow up to Natchez Burning. One of the best middle installments of a trilogy I have ever come across. The heart of these books is family - not just one family - several. And the deceit and lies they tell and the lengths they will go to love and protect their own. The Cage family (one that has been prominent in several books written by the masterful Greg Iles), is revered by most in Natchez - even when their choices are not understood; while the Knox family incites fear in women and men alike. Good does not just battle evil in the Bone Tree. It is not a place that most can find. And is not a place you want to visit. For most do not escape. Hard choices are made daily and evil wins out... most of the time. But champions like Dr. Tom Cage, Penn Cage and Caitlin Masters take up the cause to fight for those who cannot fight for themselves, like Viola Turner and Henry Sexton. Dr. Tom Cage, having suffered more than most will stop at nothing to protect what he holds dear. Caitlin Masters works tirelessly to try and discover the mysteries of the Bone Tree. She finds it and discovers the true evil that lurks there. And Penn Cage - he learns a hard lesson that justice and right and wrong aren't always clear cut. He will be tested at every turn. And he will be left questioning everything. The themes in this book are riveting and heartbreaking: the roots of racism/modern-day racism in the south; and a conspiracy theory regarding the death of JFK (and the deaths of RFK and MLK). It is these themes interwoven with the beloved characters of Tom and Penn Cage that make this book impossible to put down. There were parts of this novel that had me in hysterics sobbing. I divorced but living in the house with my ex-husband when I read it. At one point, I was reading it and was sitting at our kitchen table and found myself reading a part that stunned me. I cried hysterically and could not stop. I read one page over and over and was un-consolable. I could not continue on in the book. My ex happened to be in the room. We were on good terms at the time.. and he came over and even tried to comfort me.. it was not possible. This book is gut wrenching, suspenseful novel and will turn your insides out. It will have you smiling one minute and crying and/or yelling the next. It is Greg Iles at his absolute best and one of the best novels I've read this year. I recommend this to anyone who loves a good suspense novel and wants to read about characters who stay with you forever.
