About the Book

A wealthy oilman plunges ten stories to his death from a hotel-room balcony. Detective Jimmy Paz's only suspect is Emmylou Dideroff, an eerily pious young woman who claims to commune with saints. Eager to confess, she begins the bizarre tale of despair and degradation that led her into the service of God. Together with his new partner, rookie cop Tito Morales, and police psychologist Lorna Wise, Paz must find the truth hidden in this strange woman's tale. When people associated with Emmylou start turning up dead, Paz and Lorna begin to suspect that there's something much larger at stake than Emmylou's guilt or innocence, and that the search for justice might bring them all face-to-face with an even more elemental--and terrifying--force.

About the Author :
Michael Gruber, a former marine biologist, restaurant cook, federal government official, and political speechwriter, traveled a fascinating path toward his latest occupation as the bestselling author of critically acclaimed thrillers such as The Book of Air and Shadows. Nick Sullivan has worked extensively on Broadway and throughout the United States. His television credits include 30 Rock, The Good Wife, All My Children, and all three Law & Order series. He has recorded hundreds of audiobooks, is an Audie Award winner, and has received numerous AudioFile Earphones Awards.

Review :
Valley of Bones has enough originality to back up its easily excited imagination. And at its core is the kind of ineffable mystery that's worth more than the corpse-out-a-window kind...Some books simply relish the darker sides of human nature. Mr. Gruber summons them with troubled inquisitiveness, with both brio and regret. -- "New York Times" An intriguing intellectual thriller. -- "Miami Herald" Evocative prose, an erudite author, spellbinding subject matter and totally original characters add up to make this one a knockout. -- "Publishers Weekly (starred review)" Interpreted by narrator Nick Sullivan, Gruber's novel is pitch-perfect throughout. Sullivan creates truly authentic voices for Paz (a Cuban-American), Emmylou (a rural Southerner), and all the other characters, incorporating emotions with just the right shading. One wants to discover the ending yet doesn't want it to end. -- "AudioFile" Occasionally overwhelming, the story's strong religious overtones are presented philosophically and poignantly throughout. Reader Nick Sullivan does a marvelous job of juggling voices and providing believable accents for numerous characters. -- "Library Journal" This top-notch novel confirms Gruber's place as a gifted writer who stretches the conventional bounds of the genre...A smart, riveting, wholly original, and thoroughly fascinating book that's impossible to put down. -- "Amazon.com, editorial review"
