READ THE THRILLER THAT LAUNCHED THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING SERIES

Eleven bodies. One grave.

On a wet, windswept morning, a field on a desolate farm gives up the dismembered bones of eleven women. They have been buried there since 1915, their skeletons bearing the marks of a meticulous butcher.

Then a young woman goes missing. When her remains are found soon after, police are horrified to discover the bones were carefully stripped before being arranged in an arcane pattern.

With the crimes of the past echoing in the present, DS Katie Maguire must solve a decades-old murder steeped in ancient legend before this terrifying killer strikes again…

Perfect for fans of Peter James, CJ Tudor and Chris Carter, White Bones is part of the darkly original million-copy-bestselling DS Katie Maguire thriller series, which can be read in any order.
