A great read!! July 28, 2010 Sian Having watched the tv show I decided to try reading the wire in the blood books and I wasn't disappointed! I have enjoyed reading Val mc Dermids books and I think they work well along with the tv show as they give a greater insight into the characters and their past. We learn more about Tony's parents and the reasons for why Tony has such a quirky, strange personality. I absolutely loved this book and I just couldn't put it down! There are plenty of twists and turns that leave you guessing for the whole book and I have to say this is probably my favourite of the Hill/Jordan books I have read.
Wow!! July 7, 2010 Rachael Having read all of Val Mcdermid's books I was sceptical whether this would come up to scratch, but it certainly does, the twists and turns keep you guessing till the last minute and the change in Tony when he realises what he never knew about his father is refreshing and makes you feel this could still run and run a little longer.
It would be interesting to read the follow up to this.
Loved it. June 2, 2010 CD I have read all of Val McDermid's book and have enjoyed them all. But this i think is one of the best. loved it. I know all the characters as i've read all her books in turn so maybe that made it better for me but i really enjoyed the story. Read it in 3 days! I recommend all her books if you like serial killer books and weird phsycho stuff!!
Don't let talk of dead bodies put you off an excellent read! May 24, 2010 Hannah Dexter (Bedford, UK) I haven't read a lot of crime fiction before, thinking that talk of dead bodies would be too grisly for my liking, but I am so glad I picked up this book as just like it says on the cover, I found it to be really gripping and not at all predictable, unlike many books I've read recently. I will definitely be interested in reading more books from Val McDermid in the future if this one is anything to go by!
Another good Jordan/Hill thriller. April 30, 2010 J.Flood (Dublin,Ireland) After a slight dip in form in her previous Jordan/Hill novel, Beneath The Bleeding, I was wondering what Fever Of The Bone would be like. In this novel, Carol and Tony are on the trail of a killer who is luring teenagers to their deaths, by gaining their confidence on a social networking website.
I found it a very enjoyable thriller, as good as any in this series, in fact. As always, the characters of Carol Jordan and Tony Hill are engaging and believeable, helped by a good storyline, that kept me interested, throughout. Tony's manipulative mother was introduced in the previous novel, and we see more of her in this story too. We also learn more about Tony's estranged father. If you enjoy faced paced thrillers, with good characters, you should like this one.
