The Bone Box

A good book overall. The back cover synopsis doesn't cover what it is really about. The synopsis only deals with the last 70 pages or so. The build up is more detailed and in depth than the ‘action' so to speak. I LOVED the theology behind it and the way the public reaction is dealt with. I think that part was very realistic. I loved the way Hostetler goes back and forth in time and his portrayal of Caiaphas.
I did very much enjoy the novel even though it wasn't quite what I expected. The characters are interesting. The plot is compelling. The modern day stuff is wrapped up a little quickly, but I don't think this detracts too much from the whole novel.
