Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Next up from the exciting author of the Detective Reynolds series comes 'Secrets in the Bones', a gripping supernatural horror mystery suspense novel following Det. George Reynolds and his budding new love, Ellena Walker, to Scotland. And a well-earned rest... Or so they thought. With the horrifying world of the supernatural, nothing ever goes according to plan. Reynolds is desperate to put some daylight between himself and the fallout from the gruelling 'Black Widow' case... With his supernatural abilities ever-evolving, the quiet countryside seemed the ideal location to appreciate and grasp what the Blood Moon had done to him. Under the watchful eye of forensic pathologist Ellena Walker, of course. When George and Ellena arrive in Cruden Bay, George is mesmerised by a mysterious lady hovering dangerously at the edge of the cliffs. Only she is the ghost of a late countess, Anna Farrington, who comes with a tragic tale weaved through the village's history that stirs Ellena's and George's appetite for adventure. However, all isn't as it appears, a detail further twisted by a village local, Mr Amos McKinnon, who immediately fixates on Ellena. Whilst details about Amos disturb George, besides the smell of blood. George and Ellena discover there's more to the bewitching Cruden Bay than meets the eye. Unravelling that Amos is a vampire. One with an agenda to awaken the 'elder', imprisoned and hidden from his grasp. George and Ellena get entangled in a thrilling yet harrowing journey of discovery and mystery, with George needing to solve a 300-year-old murder. Ellena realises that her 'blood' is literally the key to the vampire's plan. With nightmarish incidents and details mounting, George and Ellena are in serious danger, desperately seeking help from their friends, Michael Dalton and Andy Morris. Together, they become embroiled in an unparalleled supernatural world of bloodthirsty violence and evil. Will anyone survive? Will the vampires win? Does the Elder get awakened? And who was the 300-year-old murder victim? George will have to confront his greatest fear yet, the fear of losing everyone all over again and face the ultimate test: an encounter that will take him to the brink of death. Maybe even beyond.
