This just in, you crime fiction aficionados: HighBridge has acquired audio rights to the next Tom Thorne novel by celebrated British mystery writer Mark Billingham. It’s called The Bones Beneath (June, 2014), and it’s a rematch between Thorne and one of the most vile psychopaths he has ever faced (hint: it’s a villainous master manipulator from one of the early Tom Thorne novels that’s also available as a HighBridge audiobook). The Bones Beneath is deliciously creepy, more than a little terrifying, and involves Thorne making the most gut-wrenching decision of his career. In other words, you, Mr. and Ms. Detective Fiction Fanatic, definitely won’t want to miss it. It’s coming next June, which gives you plenty of time to listen to the previous four Billingham audiobooks from HighBridge: Sleepyhead, Scaredy Cat, From the Dead, and The Dying Hours. And while you’re in the midst of doing that, take a moment to check out the cover story on Billingham in the Fall 2013 issue of Mystery Scene magazine.

I do hope that means this one will also be narrated by Simon Prebble.
