Talk about terrific! Her Silent Bones: A gripping crime thriller with a heart-stopping twist knocked my socks off! Whew! I have not read this author’s books before and boy was I missing out! This book was suspenseful, gripping, and dramatic. I listened to the audiobook and thought the narration was nicely done.
Detective Delaney Pace has returned to Kearney, Wyoming after the deaths of her brother and sister-in-law. Her eleven years old niece, Kateena, needs her and Delaney will be raising her. Delaney doesn’t even get the chance to settle in when a body is found, and she is thrown into investigating the murder. Delaney is shocked when she discovers that Lila, her sister-in-law, and Kateena’s mother is the dead woman. But wait! She died in the car crash with Delaney’s brother, didn’t she? Then Kateena goes missing……
The stakes are high, tensions mount and Delaney and her partner are on the chase for a clever and diabolical killer. Time is of the essence, and they pour everything they have into the investigation.
I enjoyed the suspense, sense of dread, and tension in this book. I thought the narrator did a fantastic job bringing this book to life. There are a nice number of twists and turns that kept the pacing moving at a nice pace. There is also a shocking reveal that I did not see coming! Another plus is getting to know just enough about Delaney and her past that has me wanting to know more about her in future books in this series.
Gripping, tense, dramatic and shocking.
