Forgotten Bones

Dead Remaining, Book 1

By: Vivian Barz

Narrated by: Julie McKay

An Amazon Charts bestseller.

An unlikely pair teams up to investigate a brutal murder in a haunting thriller that walks the line between reality and impossibility.

When small-town police officers discover the grave of a young boy, they’re quick to pin the crime on a convicted criminal who lives nearby. But when it comes to murder, Officer Susan Marlan never trusts a simple explanation, so she’s just getting started.

Meanwhile, college professor Eric Evans hallucinates a young boy in overalls: a symptom of his schizophrenia - or so he thinks. But when more bodies turn up, Eric has more visions, and they mirror details of the murder case. As the investigation continues, the police stick with their original conclusion, but Susan’s instincts tell her something is off. The higher-ups keep stonewalling her, and the FBI’s closing in.

Desperate for answers, Susan goes rogue and turns to Eric for help. Together they take an unorthodox approach to the case as the evidence keeps getting stranger. With Eric’s hallucinations intensifying and the body count rising, can the pair separate truth from illusion long enough to catch a monster?

Interesting but predictable

This book was interesting but predictable. Some parts were a bit cliche, like people with mental illness seeing ghosts that others cant.

I didn't like how predictable it was. I guessed before I was halfway.

Besides that it was enjoyable, just too predictable.

Spooky thriller.

So much better than I anticipated! I expected a lot of psychological mumbo jumbo about schizophrenia but really there wasn’t. The main character suffered from it but the storyline line wasn’t at all hampered or dulled by it. It was predictable at times but that didn’t prevent me from tuning in every free moment I had.

Entertaining

I enjoyed the fast-pace and twists and turns this story took in the telling. It was entertaining and always left me wanting to know more every time I had to stop listening. Julie McKay made me feel as if there were more than one person telling the story as she moved from character to character seamlessly. Very enjoyable. Thanks for the story.
