You never think it can happen in your hometown.
Molly Burke has enough of her own nightmares to contend with
from her stint in Vietnam as a nurse.
Her current position as a trauma nurse and death investigator in St.
Louis is another compartment of her life that she undoubtedly experiences
horrific gut scenes along with the rampant lets-hide-the-child-abuse stupidity.
Just as Molly begins to get vicious notes left on her
doorstep, her not-often-seen nephew, Patrick, pays a call from across the
country while his parents are working in China.
Maybe he can soften the hard edge of reality and fill a void of a
childless home. He’s a wild-child,
although he does take on a job and befriends the elderly man next door.
The notes keep coming along with freshly de-muscled human
bones.
Frank Patterson, a big time attorney, regularly checks on
and visits Molly out of more than duty.
Fortunately, he understands her wry sense of humor as she has a hard
time allowing him any room in her hectic schedule.
Molly’s forced to check her past for anyone who’d want her
as dead as the gifted bones. She keeps
in mind that serial killers start out as, let’s say, misfit kids.
Dreyer takes us
through a maze that has no clear ending, maybe many. Thriller, intense, shocking, and a story that
will hit you like a brick at the final revelation.
Happy reading,
Dawn
