Bring Up the Bones

Forensic anthropologist Kait Jenret retrieves three unwanted skeletons from a museum collection in Upstate New York.

Who are they and what happened to them?

The specter of murder pulls in detectives Einar Hannesson and Robert Layton and opens the door to a mystery of ominous proportions. More skeletons, more questions.

All of them missing left hands. But why?

Einar enlists the reluctant help of former partner Michael Lewis, Jenret's fiancé, in trying to unravel the growing mystery. Lewis has substantial issues of his own, including the nasty fact that he's undead and doesn't really understand what it means for him.

And deep in the northern Adirondacks, trapper Thomas Skinner, imbued with his own abiding sense of religion, holds the bloody key that will draw them all into his territory.

Secrets may lay buried for decades, but they rise to the surface when you bring up the bones.
