Written in Bone is a novel written by the British crime fiction writer Simon Beckett, first published in 2007. It is the second novel to feature Dr. David Hunter.[1][2]
Set in the Outer Hebrides, this crime novel features forensic anthropologist Dr. David Hunter. In this volume, he is called in to examine a badly burned body found in a deserted house on a small island while contending with both personal and professional obstacles. It received positive reviews as being better than Beckett's first novel, with satisfying plot twists and well-implemented scientific details.[3]
