Dead Winter Bones

Ancient bones. A modern murder. And a killer who won’t stop until the past is buried for good.

When a body turns up on the grounds of Liggan Manor, Malachite Peck is called in. The lady of the manor swears her family has nothing to do with it—and she wants Mal to prove it. Mal isn’t convinced, but with too much time on her hands, she agrees.

What starts as a simple case quickly unravels into a tangle of family secrets, a whispered new will, and a surprising new heir no one saw coming. As generations clash over the sprawling estate, another second body is discovered, and it’s clear—a killer is hunting the Liggan heirs one by one.

Now, Malachite is in a race against time. Can she unmask the predator before the entire lineage is wiped out?

Dive into the second book of the Golden Murders series—can you solve the mystery before Mal does?
