Description
Riverdale meets The Craft in this fantasy series from the Number 1 New York Times bestseller. Enter a town where secrets don't stay buried and the dead won't stay quiet...
The dead chose her. Now she has to figure out why.
Eighteen-year-old Thalia Cross has spent her whole life invisible in the mountain town of Wilder, Colorado, following her grandfather's rules to stay isolated and stay safe. But when her only friend turns up as a stripped skeleton on her mountain, and the bones start whispering her name, Thalia discovers she's something called a Bone Singer—and that the dead have been waiting specifically for her.
Now she's the prime suspect in a murder, falling for the deputy who arrested her, and uncovering a secret that goes deeper than anyone in Wilder is prepared for.
