The Bone Tree by Greg Iles Book Summary

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Greg Iles comes the second novel in his Natchez Burning trilogy—which also includes Natchez Burning and the upcoming Mississippi Blood—an epic trilogy of blood and race, family and justice, featuring Southern lawyer Penn Cage.

Former prosecutor Penn Cage and his fiancée, reporter and publisher Caitlin Masters, have barely escaped with their lives after being attacked by wealthy businessman Brody Royal and his Double Eagles, a KKK sect with ties to some of Mississippi’s most powerful men. But the real danger has only begun as FBI Special Agent John Kaiser warns Penn that Brody wasn’t the true leader of the Double Eagles. The puppeteer who actually controls the terrorist group is a man far more fearsome: the chief of the state police’s Criminal Investigations Bureau, Forrest Knox.

The only way Penn can save his father, Dr. Tom Cage—who is fleeing a murder charge as well as corrupt cops bent on killing him—is either to make a devil’s bargain with Knox or destroy him. While Penn desperately pursues both options, Caitlin uncovers the real story behind a series of unsolved civil rights murders that may hold the key to the Double Eagles’ downfall. The trail leads her deep into the past, into the black backwaters of the Mississippi River, to a secret killing ground used by slave owners and the Klan for over two hundred years . . . a place of terrifying evil known only as “the bone tree.”

The Bone Tree is an explosive, action-packed thriller full of twisting intrigue and deadly secrets, a tale that explores the conflicts and casualties that result when the darkest truths of American history come to light. It puts us inside the skin of a noble man who has always fought for justice—now finally pushed beyond his limits.

Just how far will Penn Cage, the hero we thought we knew, go to protect those he loves?

Bone tree. Best. Book ever!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait for next illes next book

Good but long. This is the sequel to Natchez Burning, and picks up where that left off. It follows the same characters for several more days, and based on the ending, more is to come. It’s good, exciting, but a bit overwritten. Over these 2 books, about 1600 pages in the print form, you certainly get to know the characters, and get a sense of place and time. It could have been shortened with no loss in story or atmosphere. Nevertheless, then the next Greg Iles comes out I will buy it on the first day.

The Bone Tree. This is one of the best novels I have ever read. Iles’ uses a magnificent historical mystery on which to form a realistic and suspenseful fiction with characters of credibility, strengths and weaknesses that keep you wanting to read more, yet fearing what might happen. Truth and fiction collide with clarity of the never ending racism that still grips our nation.

Natches Burning. Awesome ,that's all I can say. Can't wait to read next book in this series. The bone tree.

The Bone Tree. Jesus Greg...really! I've read every one of this guys books and always enjoyed them but the second one in this series still leaves us hanging! Long winded, manipulative and just excessive. Can't this guy just tell a story without dragging it out over three (or maybe MORE for Gods sake) books of over 1000 pages each? This crap makes me want to just give up on this author...what in the hell is he thinking. Move on Greg.

The bone tree. This should have been submitted as the same book. No one could follow the second book if they haven't read the first recently

The Bone Tree. Thought provoking and tightly written. This one will hold your attention

Long winded.... I agree with the other readers who said this book was long winded. Thats exactly it. Too wordy, long, and at times it became boring. Love the plot, but the book(s) could have been way shorter and moved along much faster. I don’t think I’ve ever said this about a book before, but here it is; I could not stand Caitlyns character and nearly every single thing she did made absolutely no sense. Every action was just plain stupid to the point of irritation. See ya, Caitlyn!

Wonderful read‼️. Simply put: this book is absolutely amazing. Well written and filled with twists and turns. I can't wait to read book three in this triolgy😀

Mr. Turupt. Is an awesome book I recommend you read this book if you are a kid under 10 I'm just a little bit older that ten like I said before my teach read it to me

Another hit!. Greg Isles continues his award winning tale of Penn Cage and Natchez, Mississippi. Another story I couldn't put down but hated to see end. And now we wait for the next part.....Snake's revenge and Tom Cage's story.

Bone Tree. The basic story is interesting. The book is never ending. Twice as long as it needs to be.

Bone Tree. I really enjoy Mr Iles writing and have read many of his books. I find his plots and characters very inciting. However I found this book was rather hard to follow because of the Kennedy conspiracy sub-plot. I found it just confused the main point that started in “Natchez Burning”. It got to the that I just began flipping past the Kennedy rehashing that took up so many pages.

The Bone Tree.... Darn, I finished it. Now I have to wait for the next one. Excellent as usual!

The Bone Tree. Everything I expected from Greg. The twists and turns are great reading. I've read all of his books and can't wait for the final in this trilogy. Kudos to my favorite author.

The Bone Tree. Very disappointing. It seems so many authors whose early works I enjoy (e.g. Stuart Woods, John Grishman) in their later books begin to “mail it in.” The first 100 pages of the Bone Tree were a rehash. The book then disintegrated into a disjointed and rambling narrative before collapsing into an unsatisfying ending that was clealry calulated only to set up the next in the series.

The Bone Tree. Ridiculously long, way over the top. Could have been half the amount of pages. Skip it if you didn't read the first book. Personally I am not reading the next one. Totally frustrated with this author.

The Bone Tree. Excellent series, but I want the story to continue! Is another book in this series planned?

Terrible. Long winded

Bone Tree. Very interesting story. Great writing. Great plot!

Stupendously boring. Unusual for this author... this book was incredibly boring... Rambling, disjointed effort...

The Bone Tree. I think the first half of the book is slow. T I think it could be edited down without lost of story. Also there are to o many charters. Could not follow some times and had to repeat. I read about 15 online books a year and love to read.

Exceptional. Another outstanding novel from Greg Iles. Carrying on the story from Natchez Burning, Penn and his father, Tom, battle with the Knox family through betrayal, murder, lies and deception. Great characters and unforeseen plot twists make this a book that is hard to put down.

Wow!. Absolutely amazing, finding this series was a true gift. I loved every word.

The bone tree. Outstanding! Can't wait for the next one
