The Bone Riddle
About the Book
Cape Kidnappers: On a cliff overlooking the Pacific and one of the largest gannet bird colonies in the world, American CEO Harlan Quinn has built his “Plan B”—a lavish estate he rarely visits, complete with an underground doomsday bunker. When the cleaning staff finds a body within, it appears the victim died of natural causes, with no signs of foul play. Advanced facial decomposition leaves him unidentifiable, so forensic odontologist Alexa Glock is called in to identify the body via dental records. But something odd in the deceased’s mouth sets Alexa and the team on a new track—to find a murderer. As they work to narrow the suspect field, a second homicide—and a stolen cache of weapons from a locked room in the bunker—ramp up the investigation and the risk to Alexa’s life. Will she be able to solve this particular riddle before she becomes victim #3?
With cutting-edge forensic technology, a stunning setting, and a deepening relationship between Alexa and Detective Inspector Bruce Horne, The Bone Riddle will delight science geeks, armchair travelers, and procedural buffs who like a little romance with their body count.
