Pro Reviews

“Shane Gericke is the real deal, and Cut to the Bone is an A-grade thriller.” -New York Times bestselling author Lee Child

“Cut to the Bone is one of those scary rides that can melt away a fifteen-hour flight. Fast-paced, taut writing coupled with characters you’ll care about makes this a great pick, and the scenarios (trust me on this) will haunt you for weeks.” -New York Times bestselling author John J. Nance

“Arrives with the impact of a large-caliber handgun fired at point-blank range. From the opening scene to the last line, the book is a frightening thrill ride, with beautifully drawn characters, sharply observed detail, and exceptional writing. This is a damn fine book.” -New York Times bestselling author Douglas Preston
