Fresh Fiction Review

BoneMan's Daughters
Ted Dekker

Reviewed by Allyn Pogue
Posted April 15, 2009

Thriller Psychological

A serial killer known as the BoneMan is again on the loose due to a technicality in his prosecution. He's called the BoneMan because after abducting innocent young girls, he murders them by slowly breaking their bones without breaking their skin. Police speculate that he thinks of himself as the perfect father in search of the perfect daughter. Of course, each new girl never lives up to his high expectations, so he has to get rid of her and try again. Intelligence officer Ryan Evans learned all about torture and death during his imprisonment in the Middle East. Though now estranged from his wife and teen-aged daughter, everything changes for Ryan when his daughter becomes the BoneMan's next victim. With the FBI looking at Ryan as the possible suspect in the abduction, he knows he has to take matters into his own hands and go after the BoneMan himself. This unnerving psychological thriller will chill you to the bone. Dekker again delivers cutting edge suspense and a gripping plotline with great finesse.
