Synopsis:
Everybody in Elkhart has a secret and if they say they don't,
they're lying. Three years have passed since Tristan Morrow returned home after
her harrowing kidnapping ordeal with her former English teacher, Bernard
Kendricks. A sense of peace has taken over the Morrow Manor, but it will not
last forever. A killer of women is on the loose in Elkhart and has already
claimed the lives of two young women. An investigation ensues and the murder
scenes send Sergeant DiNolfo's mind spiraling back to a similar murder that
happened exactly twenty years prior: The murder of Tiffany O'Mara.
Angie O'Mara is a 38-year old law assistant who has certainly seen better days. At the age of 18, she fled Elkhart after the murder of her sister and she never looked back, escaping a past that haunted her every waking moment. She settled in Seattle and married her boyfriend Jeremy, but she wouldn't get her happily-ever-after. On June 15, 2000, not only is her marriage over, but she finds herself homeless and unemployed. With her life in shambles, she finds herself back in the one place she spent her life running from, starting into the eyes of the one person who poisoned her dreams.
Will DiNolfo and her officers catch the killer before a third victim is claimed? When their three main suspects turn out to be innocent, the Elkhart Police Department is at a loss until a citizen comes forward with some crucial information: Tristan Morrow knows who is responsible for the murders. But does the information come too late? And how does this relate to the murder case of Tiffany O'Mara? Tristan soon learns that not even the dead can keep their secrets buried forever.
Only one thing is certain, though. The past has a way of catching up with you, and all secrets must come to light.

I was given a copy of this book for an honest review.
I am going to start off by saying, if you haven’t read Shadows of Morrow first, then download and read it first. It was amazing and will familiarize you with the characters in O’Mara and the Bone Tree.
O’Mara and the Bone tree is the second novel in the Elkhart Case Files. I have read this book a couple of times and I was never bored any of the times that I have read it. When you are reading, you just have to know what’s going to happen next. There is so much suspense that you can’t stop reading because you don’t want to miss one part of this book.
I especially love the characters in this book. Their actions and descriptions are so perfect that you feel like you are a part of this book. I liked the fact that all my favorite characters from Shadows of Morrow were all a part of this book as well. My favorite character in this book was Tommy. I also liked that we were able to get to know him better and see a different side to him. I am also a fan of Tristan and Cole’s relationship. They are so cute together. I felt really bad for the O’ Maras because they had to endure so much trauma and devastation.
I totally was not prepared for the shocker reveal at the end. It was written magnificently. You would totally not suspect that coming. A.C’s writing is fascinating. She pulls you into her world by captivating you with her profound and innovative imagination.
This was such an excellent read and I highly recommend it to anyone that reads any genre. Although this is a mystery novel, it gives you a little of everything. There is even a tad bit of romance in there. Trust me, you will not be disappointed. I can’t wait for Murder of Crows!! Phenomenal job, A.C.
