A Flood of Bones

A 50-year-old murder spree. A present-day victim. A town rife with secrets.




As the floodwaters around a rural West Yorkshire town recede, several bodies are left behind. At first, it is thought to be a disturbed graveyard, but the gruesome discovery is quickly established as multiple homicides.




From 50 years ago.




And when a young local woman is murdered, tension in the community threatens to boil over.




As the case expands quickly, Detective Inspector Alicia Friend uncovers even older secrets - secrets linked to a psychotic priest from the 19th century, to a white supremacist group, and an amateur sleuth who poses the theory of a cult spanning generations.




With too many suspects and too many bodies, A Flood of Bones is a serial killer novel where anyone could be a killer, and anyone could be the next victim.
