It picks up where the first book, "Natchez Burning", ended, in and around Natchez, Mississippi and adjacent areas of Louisiana. The time is December of 2005 and the story is advancing at a fast clip filled with violence and desperate action. Roughly a day passes with each 200 pages and the point of view switches back and forth from the protagonist, Mayor Penn Cage of Natchez, speaking in the first person, to the omniscient narrator who tells us what the other characters are doing and thinking. The level of suspense is intense and the conflict between the forces of law, justice and truth on one side and terror, depravity and the denial of history on the other is presented on an epic scale. <br><br>Greg Iles and Penn Cage are educated Southern white men. They love the South and choose to live with their families in Natchez. And they, both the novelist and the fictional mayor, former assistant DA and novelist he has created, are keenly, painfully, aware of the legacy of horror in which they live. The nightmare of slavery, the awful truth of the American Civil War, fought to preserve the evil of slavery, the tragedy of Reconstruction, which saw the birth of the first Klan and the mythology of the "Lost Cause", the triumph of white supremacy in the Jim Crow era, the white backlash against the Civil Rights movement and the advent of the modern South, just as racist and reactionary as ever, just more discreet about displaying its dedication to white supremacy. <br><br>In "The Bone Tree", the title refers to a giant, ancient cypress deep in the Lusahatcha Swamp of southwestern Mississippi, a place used since antebellum times to punish runaway slaves, to terrorize, torture and murder opponents of the Jim Crow regime in the years after the war. To most people, it is only a mythic place, a dark invention told to frighten potentional "trouble-makers". But the Double Eagles, an ultra-fanatical branch of the KKK, know it as a very real site of their most hideous crimes. <br>Its reality is also known to journalists Henry Sexton and Caitlin Masters who are dedicated to finding the Bone Tree and revealing its terrible secrets.<br><br>John Kaiser of the FBI, who has been investigating the Double Eagles for years, is more interested in their possible connection to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. His wife, famed photojournalist Jordan Glass, who is an inspiration to Caitlin Masters, interviews Fidel Castro and hears his opinion/belief on who was responsible for the murder of JFK.<br><br>The JFK subplot involves Dr. Tom Cage, Penn's father, who is on the run from the law for allegedly murdering Viola Turner, his former nurse and lover. This leads to the Cage family being at war against the Knox family, a powerful and corrupt clan entrenched in law enforcement, organized crime and politics. Each family has allies and, on the Knox side, sycophants and henchmen. "The Bone Tree" is one of those powerful tales in which the novelist makes the readers feel the hurts of the good and innocent and yearn for a righteous fate to befall the despicable villains. <span class="rating">( <img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/ss10.gif"> )</span></div><div id="rfd_273571504" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span class="reviewVoteInfo"><span class="reviewVoteCount" id="rvc_273571504"> </span> </span><span class="reviewFlags"> <img id="rfi1_273571504" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"> <img id="rfi2_273571504" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"><span id="rfrf_273571504"> </span></span></span> <span class="controlItems ci3"><a href="/profile/ChuckNorton" target="_top">ChuckNorton</a> | Oct 17, 2024 | <a href="/review/273571504"><img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/permalink.gif" width="16" height="7"></a></span> </div></div></div><div class="bookReview"><div class="bookReview_content"><div id="brtext_257520829" class="commentText brslop"><div class="brev_cover"><a href="/work/14857225" data-workid="14857225" class="" ><img src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0062311115.01._SX100_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg" srcset="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0062311115.01._SX200_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 2x, https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0062311115.01._SX300_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 3x" class="bookReview_cover cover" /></a></div><div class="commentHeader"></div>This is the most detailed book describing what happens when your past catches up to you. I had not read any of Greg Iles' Penn Cage books before, and I wish I had started with the first three before beginning "Natchez Burning" and then "The Bone Tree." However, I may have just enough time to go back and read them before March 21, when "Mississippi Blood" comes out! You do not need to have read the first three, I think, because those books are summarized in these two, and probably the last book.

Some of the most notable, such as,John Dos Passos, Sinclair Lewis, and of course, William Faulkner are members of an elite group of such authors. This is the first novel I've read by Greg Iles, and after having done so, I'd argue he belongs amongst these elite writers. First of all by taking the corruption all the way to the top ! Right up to the assassination of J.F.K. and even giving Fidel Castro a cameo appearance. But what struck me most about Iles's writing was the depth and complexity of the characters. The book spanned more than 800 pages but covered only a time span of 4 days. Everyone of these scenes added to the suspense time and again. But of course even after 800 pages the reader is left with a cliff hanger.

After I finished Natchez Burning, I wondered how Greg Iles could continue that story, and yet he did. This book was every bit as gripping as the first. Unlike the first book, at the ending of this one, it is clear that there is some unfinished business, which no doubt will be revealed in the last of this Trilogy. <br>Since there was a good amount of time since I read the first book, I was happy that the beginning of The Bone Tree caught me back up.<br>This is a fast paced and exciting book. <span class="rating">( <img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/ss8.gif"> )</span></div><div id="rfd_238168371" class="reviewFlagDialogBox"></div><div class="commentFooter"><span class="reviewMods"><span class="reviewVoteInfo"><span class="reviewVoteCount" id="rvc_238168371"> </span> </span><span class="reviewFlags"> <img id="rfi1_238168371" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"> <img id="rfi2_238168371" src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/flag-trans.gif"><span id="rfrf_238168371"> </span></span></span> <span class="controlItems ci3"><a href="/profile/cjyap1" target="_top">cjyap1</a> | Apr 6, 2023 | <a href="/review/238168371"><img src="https://image.librarything.com/pics/permalink.gif" width="16" height="7"></a></span> </div></div></div><div class="bookReview"><div class="bookReview_content"><div id="brtext_235370491" class="commentText brslop"><div class="brev_cover"><a href="/work/14857225" data-workid="14857225" class="" ><img src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0062311115.01._SX100_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg" srcset="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0062311115.01._SX200_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 2x, https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/0062311115.01._SX300_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg 3x" class="bookReview_cover cover" /></a></div><div class="commentHeader"></div>Having read "Natchez Burning" the first book in the trilogy, the second is equal if not better. Greg Iles' ability to weave multiple plots with strategically placed back story while expanding the main characters is extraordinary. Building momentum gradually, he adds a piece of the missing Kennedy assassination puzzle, and historical insights that broaden the scope. Additionally, he paints a vivid picture of the inhumane behavior of former Klansman, most of them frightening. As with any best selling author, the plot twists and quickening pace as the climax nears are executed with precision, the emotional elements bringing tears. He leaves the reader hanging, eager for the third book, "Mississippi Blood" Highly recommended for those who enjoy a suspenseful thriller with historic elements. <span class="rating">( <img
