Synopsis

This thriller from an author who “writes the kind of stuff of which nightmares are made” pits a madman intent on world domination against a Canadian Mountie (The Globe and Mail, Toronto).   Robert DeClercq has faced a lot of psychos as the head of the Special X team of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. But never one as evil as Mephisto, a megalomaniac intent on recovering a relic rumored to hold the secrets of Stonehenge—mysteries Mephisto hopes to exploit for his own diabolical ends.   Determined to make DeClercq a pawn in his plan to uncover the ancient treasure, Mephisto lures him in by abducting one of DeClercq’s own. Now DeClercq is in a race against time to save his friend and fellow cop from a slow and torturous death—and save the world from Mephisto’s sinister scheme to create a hell on Earth.   “The psycho to end all psychos. Mephisto makes Hannibal Lecter seem like an Oxford don with slightly unorthodox culinary tastes.” —The Vancouver Sun   “Burnt Bones is a very original thriller—nice and gory, with plenty of scenery-chewing scenes . . . that should appeal to anyone looking for a change from the usual stuff that litters bookstore shelves.” —The Chronicle Herald

    "Part diary, part scientific journal, part detective story, part love story: The Case of Emily V is thoroughly post-modern in its deliberate blurring of the distinction between fact and fiction, its cavalier blending of literary genres. But Oatley's first novel … also resembles old 19th-century literature. His characters are dynamic, his storylines complex and suspenseful, his soial commentary broad and integral to the plot." - Marie Campbell, Quill& Quire Quotables
