Description
Three and half years after a bizarre incident nearly derailed his life, Benjamin Oris is back on track as a second-year orthopedic surgery resident. With a son he adores, a circle of supportive family and friends, and a great shot at winning the Conley Research Grant, his future looks bright. But when the severed limbs of his former patients start turning up in Philadelphia parks, everything he’s worked for threatens to collapse.
Covered in bite marks and bearing recent surgical implants, the hacked-off limbs heighten the anxiety among his already traumatized coworkers, many of whom survived a plane crash in Alaska the month before. Could someone they know be a killer?
With the help of his CDC friend Laurette and her forensic-psychiatrist colleague, Ben must once again bury his skepticism and risk his career to uncover the monstrous force behind the gruesome murders.
Before someone close to him becomes the next victim.
*Although a standalone novel, "The Bone Hunger" is the second book in the Benjamin Oris medical thriller series, where a man of science gets caught up in unusual situations.

Advance Praise
“The reveal is a real shocker, and Rubin’s winning lead is well-suited to sustain a series. This is just the ticket for Robin Cook fans.”
—Publishers Weekly
“The author’s prose is sleek and organic, regarding both descriptions and punchy dialogue. But the most striking passages are from the killer’s periodic narrative perspective—disturbing thoughts from a clearly tortured mind… An aptly crafted, riveting, and often unnerving mystery.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“Rubin's ability to blend the investigative and medical thriller components into a wider-ranging exploration of Ben's psyche and his career and family challenges lends to a story that is gripping, involving, and hard to put down.”
—D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review
