Rachel Vasquez didn't know what she wanted to do after graduating high school, but the job she was offered by tough little private detective Clayton Guthrie was very promising. She now has a licensed gun she knows how to use quite well, thanks to Guthrie's training, but the exciting jobs she was anticipating aren't coming about. She's sick of boring surveillance work and considering quitting when an interesting case comes their way; a case that will take all of Vasquez and Guthrie's training, expertise and wits to solve -- as well as survive.

Guthrie is hired by lawyers of an Afghan war veteran, now a college student, who's accused of killing his fiancée, a beautiful heiress and fellow student, with a gun belonging to the vet. His attorneys are sure he's innocent and being set up by someone for the crime, and Guthrie soon agrees the man is being framed. But neither he nor Vasquez is prepared for everything they will uncover, or how far- reaching its implications, as their investigation in the case progresses. Pursuing and apprehending the real killer proves more deadly than ever anticipated.

Debut author Alaric Hunt has a winner in CUTS THROUGH BONE, a deeply compelling and colorfully gritty detective thriller with a truly unique pair of private detectives. Plot development is intense as Hunt ratchets up the tension to an explosive ending.
