A skeleton lies in a grave that should have been empty. One detail proves the burial is a lie.
Forensic anthropologist Dr. Cora Mercer notices what the detectives at Ridgeway Cemetery miss. The coffin has been aged by hand. The roots have been cut. A modern surgical anchor is fixed inside bones meant to be decades old.
Forensic anthropologist Dr. Cora Mercer notices what the detectives at Ridgeway Cemetery miss. The coffin has been aged by hand. The roots have been cut. A modern surgical anchor is fixed inside bones meant to be decades old.
The victim is Elise Varden, an investigative genealogist who died while tracing falsified adoption records and a vanished page from the county archive. As Cora follows red shellac, missing teeth, and a silver fragment beneath Elise's nail, the evidence reaches into a scandal that destroyed Cora's father and may have followed him to his grave.
Then a second witness dies, an innocent husband is framed, and someone begins using the credentials of a dead man to enter Cora's laboratory.
To name the killer, Cora must uncover why twelve women became eleven bodies and decide whether the evidence left by her father deserves her trust.
For readers who enjoy forensic detail, buried family secrets, determined investigators, and tightly linked twists.
