Victorinox SwissMemory 1 GB (Translucent Ruby)
From the makers of the original Swiss Army Knife, this 2-1/4-inch-long tool combines the Swiss Army Knife’s renowned versatility and a removable 1 GB USB memory stick for storing and transporting data such as music, photos, and text files. Displaying the Swiss Army Knife’s famed Swiss-flag logo of white cross against a red background, the handsome translucent-ruby housing also holds a knife blade, a combination nail file and screw driver, a scissors, a retractable ballpoint pen, a LED mini light, and a key ring. Accompanying the tool is a USB cable for connecting the memory stick to PCs and MACs.

About Victorinox
In 1884, Swiss cutler Karl Elsener set up shop in Ibach-Schwyz, installing a waterwheel in Tobelbach Brook to run his grinding and polishing machines. Thus began what would become the international brand name Victorinox, a combination of Victoria, for Elsener’s mother, and “inox,” or stainless steel. Today, Victorinox produces watches, luggage, clothing, and, famously, Swiss Army Knives. The forerunner of that name dates to 1897, when Elsener patented the Swiss Officer’s and Sports Knife he supplied to the Swiss Army. Following World War II, American servicemen and women shopping in PX stores shortened the name to Swiss Army Knife, which lives on in English-speaking countries around the world and has become a metaphor or versatility.

Customer Review: Good selection: awful concept.
The tracks on this cd are excellent and well worth the money. I get worried about the packaging of this sort of disc though because it reminds me of Tesco’s attempt to sell wine to the masses by renaming a mediocre chablis as ‘Good with meat’ or whatever. If this was called ‘Fine Opera’ or ‘An Opera Sampler’ then I’d be a lot happier but the dumb approach of ‘The Only Opera Album You’ll Ever Need’ makes me cringe. Once again though: the music is very good and the performances are excellent on the whole.
Customer Review: Must have for any opera lover new and old
The C.D introduced me to wonderful tracks and brought back great memories with old favorates. Everyone must have a favorate on this CD and are sure to discover new ones. I would recommend it to everyone.

Bosch AXT 2200 HP Silent Garden Shredder
Amazon Price: ?264.99
Customer Review: You’re going to need a bigger compost bin
I bought this when an old, smaller and noisier shredder (not a Bosch) gave up the ghost. I ordered it yesterday morning, and it arrived by 10 this morning - well done Amazon and City Link. The reviews were right - it’s a really good machine. It’s simple to assemble - six bolts for the stand and wheels; tools supplied; assembly instructions which for once actually made sense - took me 5 minutes. A minor grouse - the packaging uses a lot of expanded polystyrene, which most councils don’t accept for recycling. How about something greener? It comes with a collection bag, which doubles as a dust cover when the machine is back in the shed. The machine is very easy to operate. It chomped its way through branches up to 4 or 4.5cm wide. The automatic feeder is wide enough to take several sticks together, which speeds things up. It works at a comfortable pace. It prefers woody material to thin green stuff, so it seems best to mix the two. It is comfortable to use - no whipping or snatching, so no sore hands after a long period of use. It took me an hour to do what took three hours with the old machine. But best of all, it’s quiet. You can hear the birds sing, and you don’t have ringing in your ears for the rest of the day. The chips are a bit bigger than with a bladed machine, but I don’t think they’ll take much longer to compost. In any case it’s useful to have a bit of bulk material to mix with grass clippings. I should be able to shred and compost a lot of material which previously I’d have put on the bonfire, so I think I’m going to need a bigger compost bin. Yes, it’s more expensive than a smaller, noisier machine, but it’s definitely worth paying the extra. All in all, an excellent machine, which is a pleasure to use. (Yes, that sounds sad, but it’s true!)
Customer Review: Sheffield Star Man
Bought the shredder having seen all the reviews and the glowing tributes to this bit of machinery. Well they were right! I’ve just spent a morning cutting back 4 medium sized trees with masses of branches etc. which would have taken numerous trips to the ‘dump it’ site or an hefty bill for someone to do the job for me. Very pleased has it worked tirelessly for about 3 hours chewing and spitting out the pulp from some hefty sized branches and not a ‘jam’ in sight. Well worth the money and pretty much paid for itself. One minor flaw is that it less good with leafy and thin foliage i.e. privet hedges. All in all 1st class!

Celestial Seasonings Raspberry Gardens, Green Tea, 20-Count, 1.4-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6)
Customer Review: Good Taste!
I have never been a tea drinker, but a few months ago I started drinking green tea. I had read about all of the health benefits and wanted to give it a try. This is one tea that I am able to drink and actually enjoy. I had tried many others and to be honest did not care for the taste at all. This is a great way for me to get the benefits of green tea.

Customer Review: Good tea!
At this price, you can’t go wrong. I use two bags for my one cup of tea, though, to create a stronger taste. I’m drinking this everyday.

Honeywell HWM450 Quick Steam Warm Moisture Humidifier
For arid climates or the dry cold days of winter, running a steam humidifier indoors often protects the inhabitants’ skin from chapping or itching, allows stressed lungs to breathe with comfort, and infuses moisture into the room to the benefit wooden furniture, upholstery, and houseplants to prevent them from becoming brittle or parched. Honeywell created their Quick Steam Warm Moisture Humidifier for all of these purposes and more, enhancing a room’s humidity in record speed.

Best suited for rooms up to 1400 square feet in size, the humidifier’s heater is crafted in stainless steel for quick heat production and trouble-free cleaning. The compact humidifier outputs 4 gallons of warm steam for each full tank of water. This humidifier offers users a timer function for running the unit for preset periods, ranging from an hour to the maximum 18-hour setting. Digital controls and the easy-to-read LCD screen enable users to alter or monitor current preference settings. A medicine cup allows users to run the humidifier as a vaporizer for stuffed noses, sore throats and other respiratory illnesses. An automatic shutdown feature reduces safety hazards. Humidifier water should be changed frequently and the tank washed well each week to prevent bacteria, mold, and other impurities from developing, though the heating process should kill many of these unhealthy particles. As with any electrical home device, read all manufacturer guidelines and instructions prior to use. This humidifier measures 15.55 by 14.57 by 10.24 inches and weighs 6 pounds upon shipping. –Jessica Reuling

Customer Review: Does not work
It looks like I can’t give zero stars, so I guess I have to give 1. It has a built-in hygrometer that shuts it off once the desired humidity level has been reached. However, since the built-in hygrometer always thinks the room’s humidity level is over 70%, and it is not willing to humidify beyond 65%, the machine never actually puts water in the air. It’s kind of like if the heater in your house always thought the temperature were 90 degrees and thus never turned on.

In the package is one of those “stop” tags that says that rather than returning it, you should call their 1-800 number and allow them to help you. They were polite, but had no suggestions. Thus I have returned it. I suggest buying a different model.

Customer Review: quiet, easy to clean humidifier
I’ve just bought a second one for our second child’s room. I’ve had the first one for 4 years. I like the large opening for cleaning out the storage tank - it’s quiet and appears to be very durable.

There was a comment in another person’s review re: burning smell. If you just put a new replacement pad in, I’d recommend wetting it first before turning on the humidifier.

Finally a way to keep unwanted animals out of the garden and protect your yard, fruit trees, vegetables and flowers from hungry or destructive creatures. Cats, dogs, deer, rabbits, large birds, and many others. The patented Scarecrow motion-activated sprinkler is the smartest scarecrow ever invented. When it sees an intruder it instantly releases full garden hose water pressure towards the trespasser. The effect is both startling and immediate. Animals quickly get out of the area and avoid it in the future.The ScareCrow motion-activated sprinkler is constructed of durable, high-quality materials, and has been designed to provide many years of reliable service.

Side view of spray radius. Click to enlarge.

Top view of spray radius. Click to enlarge.

Using the ScareCrow is easy. Simply attach a standard garden hose to its base, set the ScareCrow in the ground in the area you want to protect, and then turn on the water. Once you switch the unit on, it is ready to go.

How does it work?
The ScareCrow uses a combination of sudden noise, unexpected movement, and a startling blast of water to create a memorable and unpleasant experience for the trespasser.
The animal immediately associates this unpleasant experience with the location, and to avoid similar surprises, learns to avoid the area. If an animal chooses to return, the ScareCrow will be waiting.
While a human may flee several steps after activating a ScareCrow, animals are typically affected to a much greater degree. In most cases they run much farther, and stay away longer. Because the unit only triggers when the animal moves, its behavior is difficult for animals to anticipate, making it a very effective deterrent.

Customer Review: Varmits are steering clear of my plants!
It works, people. Buy it! Take the time to adjust it properly for the area you want to protect and leave it alone. Good suggestion: since the water source needs to be constant, use a very good quality garden hose, or better yet, washing machine hose. You don’t want your hose connection to burst.
Customer Review: fish protector
If you are having problems with birds getting in your pond and getting your fish than this may help. My pond is 25 feet by 11 feet at the largest end and so I purchased 2 scarecrows( one at first.) It would have worked with only one aiming down the length of the pond, which I tried first, but its area of motion is wide and it would not let me near the pond unless I turned it off. But of course, turning it off is very easy. A simple knob is how you do that and there are numbers on the bird to remember where you had it set. I ordered another one and I placed them aiming across the width of the pond away from the main walking area. I can get to the edge of the pond but as soon as I reach in the water I get sprayed. If I walk around to the other side of the pond I get sprayed also. Doing it this way I get coverage past the pond to my back fence, about 25 feet, on setting # 5. I was having problems with white cranes, I live 2 miles from a lake in a residential neighborhood. I have had no more bird attacks in the 2 months of service.I just changed the battery, didn’t need to, just did. By-the-way, the wind moving the leaves of large plants set it off sometimes. We are happy with our new protection it is only fitting we name them, Heckel and Jeckel . If you have a good imagination and you look just right, they kind of look like black birds, after you put on the stickers.

Customer Review: I love Fucothin
I’ve been using Fucothin since the beginning of the year; I don’t rely soley on such products but incorporate regular high-intensity exercise as well. I’ve lost 12 pounds since January and the belly fat has definately diminished, which it did NOT do when I just did an exercise routine before. And there are NO side effects!

Customer Review: This stuff truly does work….
I started taking Fucothin about 8-9 weeks ago. I am an 18 year old male that is 5′10 and weighs(ed) 185. I took only the 1 pill for each meal for almost three weeks. Then I read the bottle again and realized that I had forgotten to up the dosage. I upped the dosage and started taking 3 at each meal. I have lost about 12lbs. I eat no differently actually in some cases I have been eating worse. I have continued to work out exactly the same as before. I’m impressed. I do like the fact that I can cheat to some degree. I had heard of some people have urine trouble as far as their urine smelling I have had not trouble whatsoever. That is why the bottle says to drink eight ounces of water with the pills.

This is television gardening at its best. Geoff Hamilton makes gardens for real gardeners, and has excellent advice for the novice and the professional. The programme features visits to a wide range of gardens and demonstrates every aspect of how to create a cottage garden for the town and the country. Features include water gardens, secret gardens, and how to create your personal paradise. No offensive loud music, no helicopter gimmicks: just loads of hands-on advice and beautiful photography. Essential viewing.
Customer Review: A Good series with practical hints and inspirational gardens
The final series to be done by the great Geoff Hamilton. It combines the practical application of how to create a “paradise Garden” with a number of visits to inspirational gardens where this has already been achieved. He produces two gardens, one of which is on a budget and the other slightly more expensive, but in both the results are spectacular especially with the time scale being so short. It is a brilliant video which every level of gardener can take something from! Simply superb!!

Home & Garden Design Collection
If you want to create your own dream home from the comfort of your own PC look no further than the Home & Garden Design Collection.

This title includes two CD-ROMs providing a series of fun tools that enable you to design your home and to landscape virtual gardens. One of the strongest features is the 3-D photoview program that lets you import a digital or scanned photo of your home onto the computer so you can landscape around it and make the images part of the final design.

This title does take a while to install on your computer which is not surprising when you consider all the different programs it offers. There are tools for all kinds of interior design, adding bathtubs, adding windows, adding floor drains. You can add colours and calculate the square footage of pathways. It’s detailed too so for example you can design intricate roofs and determine their textures.

The title comes with plenty of background information including a clear index which shows you how to use all the different tools. You can use these programs for professional level planning and designing but complete beginners will have to be prepared to commit time at first to mastering the different functions. The 3-D effects are powerful and the end result is a bit like a video game as you move through the design.

The great advantage of this program is that you can try out lots of ideas and get a pretty good understanding of how they would look in your home. Some people sometimes find it difficult to visualise how building work might alter a room. Using this program you can create virtual effect before bringing in real builders. –Justin Hunt

Customer Review: DO NOT BUY THIS SOFTWARE
This is without a doubt the most infuriating piece of software I have ever used, and I’ve used some corkers. I have a masters degree from Imperial College and am a chartered engineer, yet I have just spent the best part of two hours trying to draw two lines on a computer screen. I have spent an entire day trying to chase walls that move at random when they are resized, or resize themselves when they are moved. Add that to the fact that whenever two walls touch they jump several feet in a random direction and you can begin to see why I recommend that you do not buy this product. You may be planning an extension, but by the time you’ve even got the first storey planned you will need to rebuild the rest of the house as you will spend large parts of your day banging your head against its walls.

Fox Western Classics (Rawhide / The Gunfighter / Garden of Evil)
Disc 1: Garden of Evil (1954) Feature Film Disc 2: The Gunfighter (1951) Feature Film Disc 3: Rawhide (1951) Feature Film

Customer Review: Three Awesome Westerns In One Great Collection
Three long overdue for DVD Westerns are together in one collection. Each of these movies are great individually, but together, makes this a must-have Western film. Here are the three films -

Rawhide - Rawhide deserves not only a DVD release, but recognition as one of the greatest Westerns ever. Taut, masterful direction by the great Henry Hathaway, and excellent perfomances by everyone makes this a must have film for anyone who loves the Western genre.

Tyrone Power and Susan Hayward are trapped at a stage way station by a gang of desperate criminals. Surprises and tragedy unfold as Power, Hayward, and Hayward’s baby try to survive and outwit the criminals.

There are scenes in this film that are so tense that even today’s hardened, jaded moviegoers will appreciate. This was not a film with larger than life heroes or cardboard cutout villains, but real people well portrayed with great lines from a magnificent script.

The Gunfighter - Gregory Peck, with his natural, spare acting style, and his folksy, plain demeanor, was a natural for Westerns, and his greatness in this genre was never more evident in this 1950 film, which was one of the earlier psychological Westerns.

Peck plays Jimmie Ringo, the most notorious gunfighter in the West, is running from the brothers of a man he killed. He shows up in a town where his ex-wife lives with their young son. Ringo holds up in the town saloon as a favor to the town marshal, who an old friend, while he waits for an opportunity to see his wife.

Meanwhile, the town is taken over with the nervous enthusiasm of people wanting to see a celebrity, a shootout, or a dead celebrity. At the same time, a young punk, would-be gunfighter has heard that Ringo is in town, and is itching to make his reputation off of killing Ringo.

Everyone delivers excellent performances, and the movie has a lot to say about voyeurism, celebrity, longing, and regret. This is a fantastic movie, and without question, one of the best Westerns ever made.

Garden of Evil - This great Western was never even released on VHS, much less video, which is a shame since it had great performance from two great Western actors, Gary Cooper and Richard Widmark. Cooper, Widmark, and two other soldiers of fortune, played by Cameron Mitchell and Victor Manuel Mendoza, arrive in Mexico having responded to an add to make lots of money. They are greeted by Susan Hayward, who takes them on a perilous journey to rescue her husband, who has been injured in a mining accident. If the journey and the rescue weren’t hard enough, the location of the mine in in Indian territory. Soon, alliances are made, broken, and remade, and emotions, greed, and violence ensues.

This film may be regarded as the least of the three by some, but it has terrific acting by all, and is a wonderful showcase of Cooper beginning the twilight phase of his magnificent career, where he tended to play veteran loners who find that they still have lots to live for, and who usually finds love and renewed courage along the way.

All three films are excellent, and should have merited individual releases, making this release combining all three is even more special.

Customer Review: “FOX WESTERN CLASSICS”- 3 DVD BOX SET
At long last “The Garden of Evil”(Color 1954) even if it is included in a trilogy with two other great western movies “Rawhide” and “The Gunfighter”, in a collection called “Fox Western Classics”. These are great western films, but to me the crown jewel is “Garden of Evil”. An extraordinary western with a star studded cast that includes, Gary Cooper, Susan Hayward, Richard Widmark, Cameron Mitchell, Victor Manuel Mendoza and Rita Moreno. This one alone “is worth the ticket”. You will not be sorry in purchasing the unique box set. If you like westerns, do not miss this one. I highly recommend it.

You meet the people who are responsible and you are shown how different parts of the gardens were restored together with footage of the garden before restoration was started - and what a difference they made! You don’t need to have visted Heligan to be able to appreciate this, you just need to have a love for either archaeology or plants, or both! After seeing the video you will certainly want to visit, and also buy the next video, ‘The Return To The Lost Gardens Of Heligan’. — Dan Parsons

Customer Review: Remove any Donald Rumsfeld from your life
The ex-Secretary of Defense is now most famous for his quote about knowledge. “…as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns — the ones we don’t know we don’t know.” . When I started thinking about renovating my house and building an extension I had very few known knowns. After using the Housebuilder’s Bible as a guide I now have no unknown unknowns and very few known unknowns. I and know how to know those. So, if you’re building or thinking of building and you feel an outbreak of Donald Rumsfeld is imminent; buy this book !
Customer Review: Essential reading for self-builders and project managers
Despite having no previous building experience, we have been building and/or project managing the build of our house for the past 2 years: see www.timval.com for a diary of the build. Mark Brinkley’s Housebuilder’s Bible has proven to be invaluable. It provided us with sufficient technical information to allow us to select, negotiate with, and manage our architect and tradesmen. It gives realistic estimates of the main costs incurred, and highlights the potential pitfalls of self-building or project managing a build. There are many books available which delve further into the technical aspects of building, but none draw together the essential points from design to finishes in such a clear and practical way. The Housebuilder’s Bible is the most useful tool you can buy if you are thinking of self-building or managing the renovation or new build of your own house.

Following the successful formula of their eponymous debut album, Savage Garden’s Affirmation is made up of classic pop melodies and sleepy ballads. The title track cracks open the album–a song that sees Hayes philosophising about the inequalities of the world from a liberal minded perspective (and in true Alanis Morissette “Ironic” fashion). Although it leaves the boys open to claims of pretentiousness, the song is a high-powered introduction to an album which somehow manages to alternate between safe and risky. For example, “The Animal Song” is a menagerie of popular music sounds, which manages to be challenging while remaining comfortably familiar. Affirmation is an album that affirms why Savage Garden are one of the world’s most important pop duos. –John Galilee

My sister originally was the fan of these guys, but after listening to her albums when i was a teenager, i came across Savage Garden and have owned this album and their first one for years. i can become bored with a lot of albums quickly, but i still love this one even now. The songs are different to any out there and my favourite is ‘i knew i loved you’ it’s so romantic, and is how love feels. my friend had it as her wedding song recently, and it fitted perfectly. Their words can be clearly heard and i just cant praise this album enough! it’s not too late for u to love them too. Savage Garden may be gone, but thanks to music like this, they will certainly never be forgotton.
Customer Review: No doubt, Savage garden rocks!
okay before you start yawning,i think these guys have got the best singiong voice ever! I still cant shake off the feeling of “Truly,madly,deeply,”……..that song is so deep and hauntingly beautiful! “Crash and burn” my fav on the Affirmation album is also another masterpiece plus “two beds and a coffee mahine” and of course ‘I knew i loved you”.

Contech Electronics Scarecrow Motion-Activated Sprinkler #CRO101/CRO102
Finally a way to keep unwanted animals out of the garden and protect your yard, fruit trees, vegetables and flowers from hungry or destructive creatures. Cats, dogs, deer, rabbits, large birds, and many others. The patented Scarecrow motion-activated sprinkler is the smartest scarecrow ever invented. When it sees an intruder it instantly releases full garden hose water pressure towards the trespasser. The effect is both startling and immediate. Animals quickly get out of the area and avoid it in the future.The ScareCrow motion-activated sprinkler is constructed of durable, high-quality materials, and has been designed to provide many years of reliable service.

Using the ScareCrow is easy. Simply attach a standard garden hose to its base, set the ScareCrow in the ground in the area you want to protect, and then turn on the water. Once you switch the unit on, it is ready to go.

How does it work?
The ScareCrow uses a combination of sudden noise, unexpected movement, and a startling blast of water to create a memorable and unpleasant experience for the trespasser.
The animal immediately associates this unpleasant experience with the location, and to avoid similar surprises, learns to avoid the area. If an animal chooses to return, the ScareCrow will be waiting.
While a human may flee several steps after activating a ScareCrow, animals are typically affected to a much greater degree. In most cases they run much farther, and stay away longer. Because the unit only triggers when the animal moves, its behavior is difficult for animals to anticipate, making it a very effective deterrent.

Customer Review: fish protector
If you are having problems with birds getting in your pond and getting your fish than this may help. My pond is 25 feet by 11 feet at the largest end and so I purchased 2 scarecrows( one at first.) It would have worked with only one aiming down the length of the pond, which I tried first, but its area of motion is wide and it would not let me near the pond unless I turned it off. But of course, turning it off is very easy. A simple knob is how you do that and there are numbers on the bird to remember where you had it set. I ordered another one and I placed them aiming across the width of the pond away from the main walking area. I can get to the edge of the pond but as soon as I reach in the water I get sprayed. If I walk around to the other side of the pond I get sprayed also. Doing it this way I get coverage past the pond to my back fence, about 25 feet, on setting # 5. I was having problems with white cranes, I live 2 miles from a lake in a residential neighborhood. I have had no more bird attacks in the 2 months of service.I just changed the battery, didn’t need to, just did. By-the-way, the wind moving the leaves of large plants set it off sometimes. We are happy with our new protection it is only fitting we name them, Heckel and Jeckel . If you have a good imagination and you look just right, they kind of look like black birds, after you put on the stickers.

Customer Review: Well worth it
Cant complain, It works great! I have a neighbor who’s dog walks across the street every morning to poop on my lawn. I spoke to neighbor several times over the past few years and they have made it clear that they just dont care and it’s not their problem.

After setting this little beauty up I dont wake up to any more poopies!

It’s just a shame I had to spend money out of my pocket to keep THEIR dog off my lawn.

Four-Season Harvest: Organic Vegetables from Your Home Garden All Year Long
If you love the joys of eating home-garden vegetables but always thought those joys had to stop at the end of summer, this book is for you. Eliot Coleman introduces the surprising fact that most of the United States has more winter sunshine than the south of France. He shows how North American gardeners can successfully use that sun to raise a wide variety of traditional winter vegetables in backyard cold frames and plastic covered tunnel greenhouses without supplementary heat. Coleman expands upon his own experiences with new ideas learned on a winter-vegetable pilgrimage across the ocean to the acknowledged kingdom of vegetable cuisine, the southern part of France, which lies on the 44th parallel, the same latitude as his farm in Maine.
This story of sunshine, weather patterns, old limitations and expectations, and new realities is delightfully innovative in the best gardening tradition. Four-Season Harvest will have you feasting on fresh produce from your garden all through the winter.

Customer Review: Inspirational!
I love this book. It inspires with it’s adroit mix of low-tech in an informed, high-tech world. Nope, not a return to the past, but the good past informs and points the way to an unexpectedly lush future. Gardening by latitude? Year-round harvests in MAINE? Particularly interesting to me is the fresh look of self-sufficient gardening when you harvest just what you need to eat, when you need it, instead of giant harvests for canning and freezing. It makes the entire process fit more comfortably into an ordinary life… exactly what I was looking for. No heroics, lots of common sense. I’ll be using this book a lot!
Customer Review: Eating fresh all year long
If they can do it it Maine, it shouod be possible just about anywhere. Interesting reading with good, usable background info. Plan on incorporating all of their suggestions this coming year!

The Bone Garden: A Novel
Unknown bones, untold secrets, and unsolved crimes from the distant past cast ominous shadows on the present in the dazzling new thriller from New York Times bestselling author Tess Gerritsen.

Present day: Julia Hamill has made a horrifying discovery on the grounds of her new home in rural Massachusetts: a skull buried in the rocky soil–human, female, and, according to the trained eye of Boston medical examiner Maura Isles, scarred with the unmistakable marks of murder. But whoever this nameless woman was, and whatever befell her, is knowledge lost to another time. . . .

Boston, 1830: In order to pay for his education, Norris Marshall, a talented but penniless student at Boston Medical College, has joined the ranks of local “resurrectionists”–those who plunder graveyards and harvest the dead for sale on the black market. Yet even this ghoulish commerce pales beside the shocking murder of a nurse found mutilated on the university hospital grounds. And when a distinguished doctor meets the same grisly fate, Norris finds that trafficking in the illicit cadaver trade has made him a prime suspect.

To prove his innocence, Norris must track down the only witness to have glimpsed the killer: Rose Connolly, a beautiful seamstress from the Boston slums who fears she may be the next victim. Joined by a sardonic, keenly intelligent young man named Oliver Wendell Holmes, Norris and Rose comb the city–from its grim cemeteries and autopsy suites to its glittering mansions and centers of Brahmin power–on the trail of a maniacal fiend who lurks where least expected . . . and who waits for his next lethal opportunity.

With unflagging suspense and pitch-perfect period detail, The Bone Garden deftly interweaves the thrilling narratives of its nineteenth- and twenty-first century protagonists, tracing the dark mystery at its heart across time and place to a finale as ingeniously conceived as it is shocking. Bold, bloody, and brilliant, this is Tess Gerritsen’s finest achievement to date.

“An old mystery is crossed with a modern story in the latest from Gerritsen (The Mephisto Club, 2006, etc.).Julia Hamill, newly divorced and still smarting, purchases an old house outside Boston. Determined to dig a garden, she instead finds the bones of a long-dead woman–the apparent victim of murder–which starts her on a journey to ferret out the story behind her death. Julia connects with Henry, a no-nonsense 89-year-old with boxes of documents that once belonged to the now-deceased previous owner of Julia’s home. The two discover a mystery dating back to the 1830s. At the heart of it is a baby named Meggie, born to the beautiful but doomed Irish chambermaid, Aurnia. Married to a man who cares nothing for her, Aurnia lays dying in a maternity ward with her sister, Rose, at her side. Rose, a spirited 17-year-old, takes Meggie to protect her from Aurnia’s husband, but soon finds herself the target of a bizarre manhunt. Someone is after the child–and Rose, as well, because she witnessed a horrifying murder. The body count piles up as Rose struggles to remain free of those who would take Meggie from her. Meanwhile, a young medical student becomes the chief suspect of the West End Reaper killings when he stumbles onto another terrible homicide. Although he fights the prospect, eventually he and Rose join forces to solve the murders and protect the baby at the heart of the mysterious deaths. Readers with delicate stomachs may find Gerritsen’s graphic descriptions of corpse dissection hard to take, but the story, which digs up a dark Boston of times long past, entices readers to keep turning pages long after their bedtimes.”

Customer Review: A bit of false advertising
The Bone Garden in NOT another Maura Isles novel like the summaries suggest. There is very little forensics in this novel. It is an interesting read, and I was pleasantly surprised, but those who don’t enjoy historical novels should avoid this book. I agree with the reviewers who have written that the novel should have stayed in the 1800’s. I found the medical history very engaging. That was clearly the more interesting and well crafted part of the story. The storyline in current time was not credible and the enjoy was just silly.
Customer Review: The Bone Garden
I have read all her books and enjoyed all of them. She is a great writer.
