Then an old face from Hoon’s Special Forces days turns up asking for help: His teenage daughter has been missing for months, the police have drawn a blank, and he needs the kind of help that only Hoon can provide. And besides, Hoon owes him one.

DCI Michael Lambert thought he’d closed his last case.... Yet when he’s passed a file detailing a particularly gruesome murder, Michael knows that this is no ordinary killer at work. The removal of the victim’s eyes and the Latin inscription carved into the chest is the chilling calling card of the ‘soul jacker’: a cold-blooded murderer who struck close to Michael once before, 25 years ago. Now the long-buried case is being reopened, and Michael is determined to use his inside knowledge to finally bring the killer to justice.

The brutal murder of 10-year-old Callum Bradley sent shockwaves across Scotland, but as the weeks have stretched on with no solid leads, the investigation has been scaled back. Sergeant Don Colyear, community police officer, is tasked with tying up a loose end: a 999 call which may have hinted at the boy's murder. However, the call was made three weeks before the crime took place. The caller turns out to be a resident at an Edinburgh care home, drifting in and out of lucidity due to dementia - enough to write off the potential lead as a dead end.

Detective Inspector Logan McRae is finally getting back on his feet after the events of the last few years. Putting things behind him. Getting better.… But it was never going to last. A body turns up on the outskirts of Aberdeen: burned from the neck up, hands chained behind the back. More murders follow - all gruesome, and with only one obvious connection. The similarities between the real-life killings and the plot of a best-selling novel about witchcraft seem more than coincidental, but the more Logan digs the more dangerous and blurred the line between fact and fiction becomes.

Summary
A violent community raging against extinction. An emboldened daughter rising from the ashes of a tyrant. A burned-out sheriff searching for meaning through murder.
And Jake Pettman, trapped in the middle.
Following the collapse of the Nucleus, Jake vows to stay and protect Celestia while she rebuilds. When the drones overhead indicate that Sheriff Gordon Kane and the people of Mossbark are plotting to rise against the weakened community, Jake demands that Celestia strengthen the Nucleus’ defenses.
But Celestia is a new leader with a new vision, and instead decides to open her lands to the world beyond. And all the fire and fury that burns within it.
Leaving Jake with a choice to make: Let the Nucleus die, or get himself killed trying to save it.
Whatever he chooses, he can be sure of one thing:
Every choice has deadly consequences.
Fire in Bone is an adrenaline-pumping crime thriller novel from the Amazon best-selling author of One Last Prayer for the Rays, and the DCI Yorke series. Perfect for fans of Chris Carter, James Patterson, Chris Brookmyre, and Stuart Macbride.
