Publisher's Summary:
At first, Rachel Vasquez found her new job working for private detective Clayton Guthrie promising. He got her a gun and a license and took her to target practice. But lately shes just been doing surveillance, and its not her idea of an exciting time. She is contemplating quitting when Guthrie lands an intriguing case that will take all their wits and guts to solve.
Camille Bowman, a beautiful blonde Columbia student and Manhattan heiress, is found dead, shot by a gun that belonged to her fiancé, Greg Olsen, an Afghan war veteran. Guthrie is hired to prove Olsens innocence, and fortunately he thinks Olsen smells clean. The detectives return to the scene of the crime, where they see a vagrant who claims he heard the shots and picked the girls wallet. Tiring of their questions, the vagrant flees, and Vasquez and Guthrie must track a man whos an expert at disappearing while also butting heads with the NYPD, cracking doors at Columbia University, and crawling through the citys subterranean tunnels.To complicate matters, the murder could be part of a spree of killings being called the "Barbie doll murders", in which women are killed for no apparent reason and with no suspect in sight. The NYPD would like to pin them all on Olsen, and his life will depend on Guthrie and Vasquez catching the real culprit. In a race against time, the detectives gather clues that culminate in a bloody chase of one very determined and surprising killer.
Cuts Through Bone is a suspenseful ride, a novel that is atmospheric, stylistic, and gritty to boot. In Vasquez and Guthrie, youth and brashness meet experience and resolve, making for one of the most intriguing PI teams around. Debut author Alaric Hunt has penned a riveting hard-boiled mystery, a contemporary story with the feel of a classic PI novel and a scope as large and complex as New York City, and even reaching beyond.

Disappointed
I downloaded this book with great anticipation given the background of Alaric Hunt and the award status he attained. I was really disappointed however. I found the book insufficiently detailed and the language structured in such a way i could never really get going. Kept having to re-read pages to get the flow back. I have read far better novels i must say. Did not keep me rivetted at all.
Fast paced nyc themed crime story
Fun read for the summer enjoyed the characters and detailed descriptions of nyc neighborhoods
Couldn't get through it
I tried, I really did. But this novel just couldn't hold my interest. The writing style felt off and it was difficult to keep track of the characters. My mom read it and said it was hard to get through the entire book.
Skip it.
Likable Private Eye & Original Plot
A brilliant and unconventional detective, Clayton Guthrie, is hired by a wealthy client to find out who killed a Columbia University student. The detective recently hired a scrappy assistant, Rachel Vasquez, who prefers this job over going to college. They think the police have the wrong man in jail for the crime. To get him out, they need to find the real killer which takes them into bodegas, underground obsolete train facilities and to swanky Wall Street law firms.
The case is more complex than appears on the surface, and the plot pivots and snakes. There's plenty of action to keep it suspenseful, and it's a delight to see Guthrie's smarts at work. Vasquez is the perfect feisty sidekick.
