Thriller Psychological
A stunning, wonderfully assured psychological thriller that
evokes Gillian Flynn and Alice Sebold, The Bones of You
revolves around a young girl’s murder and one woman’s
obsession with uncovering the secrets in an idyllic English
village. I have a gardener’s inherent belief in the natural order of
things. Soft‑petalled flowers that go to seed. The
resolute passage of the seasons. Swallows that fly
thousands of miles to follow the eternal summer. Children who don’t die before their parents. When Kate receives a phone call with news that Rosie
Anderson is missing, she’s stunned and disturbed. Rosie is
eighteen, the same age as Kate’s daughter, and a beautiful,
quiet, and kind young woman. Though the locals are
optimistic—girls like Rosie don’t get into real
trouble—Kate’s sense of foreboding is confirmed when Rosie
is found fatally beaten and stabbed. Who would kill the perfect daughter, from the perfect
family? Yet the more Kate entwines herself with the
Andersons—graceful mother Jo, renowned journalist father
Neal, watchful younger sister Delphine—the more she is
convinced that not everything is as it seems. Anonymous
notes arrive, urging Kate to unravel the tangled threads of
Rosie’s life and death, though she has no idea where they
will lead. Weaving flashbacks from Rosie’s perspective into a tautly
plotted narrative, The Bones of You is a gripping, haunting
novel of sacrifices and lies, desperation and love.
