Bad Bones

Claire Morgan seriesbook 7 of 9Next:Devil Dead(2015) →

Homicide detective Claire Morgan senses trouble when a man's frozen body turns up in a Missouri state park, buried under snow and encased in ice. Once the corpse is thawed, the damaged remains show that almost every bone has been broken. The victim fought in underground cage matches, and his widow points the finger at her former husband, a Russian mobster. Claire doubts a mob-style killing explains the violence and suspects something darker. As the investigation deepens, she learns that the killer was raised to inflict pain, and that a twisted family tradition lies behind the crimes. Before long, Claire finds herself face to face with that family.
