Well written page turner that, nevertheless, leaves the reader underwhelmed. Our hero should, with his history, be able to hear warning bells as soon as we do. Hoping for better next time.

4.0 out of 5 stars good 4 star mystery, June 23, 2002

This review is from: Bone Key (Hardcover)

In Les Standiford's latest John Deal novel you get a solid mystery with characters you've become familiar with but still remain fresh. This time around Deal and his newly appointed construction engineer, Russell Straight, are heading down to Key West to discuss a business proposition with a big time developer that his father once knew. Obviously with Mister Deal involved, something bad usually happens, and this time it's no exception. His unfortunate run in with a young black hoodlum is just the start of a long hard stay in the Key's. Murder, along with an old tale of piracy drive this sometime suspenseful tale to its satisfying conclusion.

Recommended.

i read bone key in one reading and enjoyed it very much. take out the prologue and all the action occurs in a couple of days in key west florida. the protagonist is a construction company owner who has come to key west to look at the pet project of a rich man named stone. while in key west he meets an old girl friend and encounters plenty of other trouble. i figured out the bad guy about two thirds of the way through but that isnt necessarily a bad thing. i plan to read some more of this series when i get the chance. written very well and plotted very well.
