The Bone Road Summary

The Bone Road by N.E. Solomons

Longlisted for the Crime Writers' Association Gold Dagger Award 2023

ON THE ROAD TO DISCOVERY, EVEN THE DEAD HAVE SECRETS.

High up on a mountain road in the Balkans, former Olympic cyclist Heather Bishop races her journalist boyfriend Ryan. But when he suddenly disappears during the ride, suspicion falls on her.

Local police inspector Simo Subotic already has his hands full investigating two mutilated bodies that have washed up on the banks of the River Drina. Something is telling him that these two cases are connected but nothing could prepare him for what is to come.

Only together can Simo and Heather hope to uncover the truth in time. Their search not only exposes the darkness of Ryan's past but exhumes dangerous secrets of a region still reeling from the trauma of war. Are some secrets so devastating that they should remain buried?
