Overview
A tense and romantic supernatural thriller about a teen girl in a small town who can hear the bones of the dead, from the New York Times bestselling author of Dark and Shallow Lies.
* "A rural Southern gothic horror novel that will stay with readers well beyond the last page." —PW (starred review)
Lucifer's Creek, Arkansas, has had more than its fair share of murders.
Over two dozen people have disappeared off the local hiking trails— there one moment, gone the next until seventeen-year-old Dovie finds their bodies. She comes from a long line of women who can hear the bones of the dead sing—a gift that has become a constant call to unearth the missing on the town’s cursed trails.
Dovie and her unnatural talent are tested as she partners with her best friend Lo, who is haunted by shadows, believed to be the restless spirits of murdered hikers and they want answers. But the truth of their deaths isn’t buried with their bones; it’s lurking somewhere deep in the hills. And Lo and Dovie must unearth it before anyone else is killed.
