In the explosive final installment of the Calla Pierce K-9 Suspense Thriller series, the truth is more dangerous than the bodies buried beneath the forest floor.
When forensic teams uncover a hidden mass grave deep in Blackwater Ridge, search-and-rescue handler Calla Pierce and her K-9 partner Atlas are pulled into a nightmare tied to cases that were never supposed to connect. Victims once declared recovered are discovered among the dead. Evidence disappears overnight. Federal agencies close ranks. And somewhere inside the collapsing investigation lurks JANUS, a secret behavioral program that turned grief, trauma, and missing persons cases into data.
As wildfire tears through remote mountain terrain, Calla uncovers the horrifying truth about Atlas's past and the role she unknowingly played inside a system built to study human suffering. But exposing everything could destroy public trust in every institution designed to protect the vulnerable.
Now Calla faces an impossible choice: release the full truth and burn the system to the ground, or bury part of it forever to protect the innocent people caught inside the wreckage.
Dark, emotionally charged, and relentlessly tense, Ash and Bone delivers a devastating finale packed with conspiracy, moral conflict, psychological suspense, and unforgettable K-9 action.
