In Baby Bones, Third Skeleton Series Mystery, Author Donan Berg introduces Iowa Sheriff Jonas McHugh to his mystery series trilogy showcase of nuanced, complex, and captivating crime-solvers.
(He's the same Sheriff who will later thrill readers in a totally new mystery, Into the Dark.)
First-term Sheriff McHugh in Baby Bones is joined by Deputy Bonnie Walsh, and local business VP Melanie Stark. Once the female skeleton is found, fears abound. Abortion vigilantes scare the coroner. Anxious to be re-elected, an unsuspecting Jonas consorts with the murderer.
When two other town leaders die, Bonnie becomes alarmed for the safety of her young daughter, Cindy.
The dots connect to Jonas.
In true Donan Berg fashion, the addictive tale spins with an elaborate web of unsuspected turns spun with gusto.
