About this ebook

A ten-year-old girl finds the bone of a young woman in a murky creek, beginning a twenty-year obsession to find the rest of her, from the bestselling author of We Are All the Same In the Dark.

It was a wild and fascinating trial, a rare “no body” murder case. The stakes hinged on a single bone, and no one knew the victim’s name or could find another speck of her. The child in the witness chair led the jury through dark and rushing water to a conviction.

Two decades later, Ana is an emergency room doctor focused on the traumas in front of her. But she’s still inextricably linked to the unidentified bone she called Jane.

No one knows that better than the man who sits in prison, who writes Ana every year. He’s holding on to something she still desperately wants: A name. A location. As their secrets pull them together again, and old ghosts come to life, it becomes clear someone else out there wants to make sure Jane remains buried – and maybe bury Ana, too.

Running out of time, Ana is torn between seeking comfort from a childhood friend-turned-cop who knows the girl she was, and a trauma surgeon who knows who she's become. In the end, only Ana can save herself.

Led by a protagonist full of poetic heart, Jane Bone is a psychological thriller that reads like The Pitt meets Bones.
