'An intricately plotted thriller, full of detail and invention,
with impeccably realised settings and characters as monstrous as
they are believable. Above all it is a completely addictive story
of two families destroyed by success. Erin Kelly is a genius' JANE
CASEY THIS REUNION WILL TEAR A FAMILY APART . . . Summer, 2021.
Nell has come home at her family's insistence to celebrate an
anniversary. Fifty years ago, her father wrote The Golden Bones.
Part picture book, part treasure hunt, Sir Frank Churcher created a
fairy story about Elinore, a murdered woman whose skeleton was
scattered all over England. Clues and puzzles in the pages of The
Golden Bones led readers to seven sites where jewels were buried -
gold and precious stones, each a different part of a skeleton. One
by one, the tiny golden bones were dug up until only Elinore's
pelvis remained hidden. The book was a sensation. A community of
treasure hunters called the Bonehunters formed, in frenzied
competition, obsessed to a dangerous degree. People sold their
homes to travel to England and search for Elinore. Marriages broke
down as the quest consumed people. A man died. The book made Frank
a rich man. Stalked by fans who could not tell fantasy from
reality, his daughter, Nell, became a recluse. But now the
Churchers must be reunited. The book is being reissued along with a
new treasure hunt and a documentary crew are charting everything
that follows. Nell is appalled, and terrified. During the filming,
Frank finally reveals the whereabouts of the missing golden bone.
And then all hell breaks loose. From the bestselling author of He
Said/She Said and Watch Her Fall, this is a taut, mesmerising novel
about a daughter haunted by her father's legacy . . . 'Moody,
propulsive, and one of the most intriguing set ups I've read in
years. Erin Kelly doesn't put a foot wrong in this atmospheric,
original thriller' GILLIAN McALLISTER 'A feat of real ambition and
imagination - original, suspenseful, and with complex characters
that spring irresistibly to life on the page, this is Erin Kelly at
her finest' LOUISE CANDLISH
By the end of that summer, two people would be dead... Fans of In A
Dark Dark Wood and The Couple Next Door will love this twisty
thriller. I have given up so much and done so many terrible things
already for the sake of my family that I can only keep going. I do
not know what is going to happen to us. I am frightened, but I feel
strong. I have the strength of a woman who has everything to lose.
In the sweltering summer of 1997, strait-laced, straight-A student
Karen met Biba - a bohemian and impossibly glamorous aspiring
actress. She was quickly drawn into Biba's world, and for a while
life was one long summer of love. But every summer must end. By the
end of theirs, two people were dead - and now Karen's past has come
back to haunt her . . . STONE MOTHERS, the new novel by Erin Kelly,

washed up by the West Pier in 1968, strangled and thrown into the

'A gripping tale of secrets, revenge and obsession, masterfully
done.' Guardian Gripping and chilling, with a killer twist, THE
BURNING AIR proves that Erin Kelly is one of Britain's best
suspense writers. Of course it was love for my children, love for
my son, that caused me to act as I did. It was a lapse of
judgement. If I could have foreseen the rippling aftershocks that
followed I would have acted differently, but by the time I realised
the extent of the consequences, it was too late. The MacBrides have
always gone to Far Barn in Devon for Bonfire Night, but this year
everything is different. Lydia, the matriarch, is dead; Sophie, the
eldest daughter, is desperately trying to repair a crumbling
marriage; and Felix, the youngest of the family, has brought a
girlfriend with him for the first time. The girl, Kerry, seems odd
in a way nobody can quite put their finger on - but when they leave
her looking after Sophie's baby daughter, and return to find both
Kerry and the baby gone, they are forced to ask themselves if they
have allowed a cuckoo into their nest . . . STONE MOTHERS, the new
