✦ Synopsis

"A winning plot..." Kirkus Discoveries. With a skeleton comes lust, money, secrets, and a clue. Respected, church-going Sarah Hamilton anguishes for a decade with an emotional skeleton living in her mind's closet. The consequences to her of one act of forbidden lust do not disappear. The past sin plus the death of her young daughter, still haunts her despite her passionate quest to live only in the future. When a real human skeleton is found entombed in her town's old factory, Sarah is caught not only with the prospect of her secret becoming devastating town gossip, but of having her husband and adopted daughter drawn into solving a ten-year mystery disappearance in A Body To Bones. One clue, surmised to be scratches of initials made by the skeleton before dying, implicates more than one resident as the potential killer in Sarah's town of 842, where her husband publishes the weekly Pioneer Ledger. Village gossip, missing diverted church money, unexplained lights and footprints, tension, and unfulfilled dreams are a prelude to real life-threatening peril when Sarah finds out the skeleton's killer still resides in her town, ready to kill again. And, she is the killer's target. About the Author: Donan Berg, a heralded talent for writing, joins with you in A Body To Bones to explore finding mystery, young love, angst, and justice.
