Romance secrets and mystery and a teenage girl who hears the bones of the dead... Perfect for
fans of Holly Jackson Adalyn Grace and Delia Owens' Where the Crawdads Sing 17-year-old Dovie
doesn't believe in magic even though she comes from a long line of women who can hear the bones
of the dead sing and for the past few years the bones have been crooning nonstop calling out
to Dovie to dig them up. Because there is a killer on the loose - someone is snatching hikers
from the miles of tracks leaving their mutilated bodies for Dovie to find. And the body count
grows ever higher. Some of the old-timers believe that it's the monstrous Ozarks howler
snatching people off the Aux Arc Trail. Well Dovie doesn't believe in the howler and she
doesn't believe her best friend - the gorgeous Lo - when he tells her he is being haunted by
dark shadows. All she believes in is her talent that guides the local sheriff to the bones when
they begin their song then reuniting the dead with their families to give them some peace. But
the truth of their deaths isn't buried with their bones it's hidden somewhere deep in the
hills. And Lo and Dovie must unearth it before anyone else is killed...
