‘Ink and Bone’ is a tale of horror and mystery
Lisa Unger returns to the small town of The Hollows with “Ink and Bone,” another gut-wrenching tale of horror and mystery.
Finley Montgomery has been visited by ghostly figures and experienced prophetic visions for as long as she can remember. She left her life in Seattle to live with her grandmother, Eloise Montgomery, who has the same gift. When Finley starts hearing sounds she knows are important, part of her wants to ignore them and focus on her studies.
If only she could.
Merri Gleason has been living a lie for some time. Her husband is cheating, and the rest of her family is imploding. Almost a year earlier, she stayed home while her husband, son and daughter went hiking. Her daughter was abducted, and the others were shot and left behind. They survived, but the pain still lingers.
Merri is tired of having no answers, so she makes a last-ditch effort by hiring Jones Cooper to uncover the truth. His background as a police officer turned private investigator should help, along with the assistance of Finley’s grandmother and her visions.
As Jones starts to investigate, it’s clear that something far worse is happening in the small town. Finley realizes she is the one destined to help Jones, not her grandmother. When everything starts to unravel, winter arrives, bringing more than snow.
Strong characters and stellar writing make this a wonderful mix of small-town life with the supernatural.
