Reilly Steel, born in Ireland, moves from California to Dublin to lead the Dublin forensics team to modernisch the lab. She is not really excepted there, only by the younger crowd walking the lab. And while trying to teach them something they have murders to investigate. Together with Detective Chris Delaney and his partner Kennedy they have to figure out the clues that were left by the killer. But they really have to do some puzzle work to try and figure this one out. Where normally a crime novel is all about detective work, this book combines the detective work with the forensic work that comes with crime solving. I really liked this combination although I thought there was room for some more details on the forensic part of the story. I liked these characters. Reilly is a strong woman who knows what she's doing. Due to events in her past she suffers from nightmares. And even when nobody wants to go along with her therories based on evidense she doesn't give up. I really liked Chris Delaney and Kennedy. Their interaction is great and they compliment eachother well. Chris warms up to Reilly fast while Kennedy takes a while to even consider her theories and her "touchy-feely" way of finding evidence. The story itself has a great build up to the plot. Where the murders are gruesome, the writing misses that bit of detail to give them a real impact when you read it. But on the other hand I love it when I totally picture a crimescene and others don't so it's totally personal. On the other hand the writing does make sure you're on the edge of your seat and let you flip page after page to see what else they uncover.
not just for moms! i am a sucker for anthologies about women's lives and so far i am enjoying this. bonus for me: i later discovered that my used copy was autographed by one of the editors!
This sequel to "Into the Wild" was even better than the first! Love the twisted little humor woven into the story and LOVE the ending!
4.5 stars. I listened to this book. The Forest of Hands and Teeth centers on Mary, a young girl whose mother and father are "Unconsecrated" (i.e., zombies). Mary's whole world is her village, which is protected from the Unconsecrated by a fence. Her mother told her stories of the ocean, and, while those in the Sisterhood tell her differently, Mary believes that it does exist. A breach in the fence provides her with the chance to find out. Ms. Ryan has created a dark tale which is very gripping. I normally stay away from zombie stories but this one is definitely worth reading! I plan on reading the sequels!
