Melinda Leigh

Shocking evidence hits close to home for attorney Morgan Dane and PI Lance Kruger as Wall Street Journal bestselling author Melinda Leigh's acclaimed series continues. Private investigator Lance Kruger was just a boy when his father vanished twenty-three years ago. Since then he's lived under the weight of that disappearance--until his father's car is finally dredged up from the bottom of Grey Lake. It should be a time for closure, except for the skeleton found in the trunk. A missing person case gone cold has become one of murder, and Lance and attorney Morgan Dane must face the deadly past that's risen to the surface. For Lance, the investigation yields troubling questions about a man he thought he knew. But memories can play dirty tricks. For Morgan, uncovering each new lie comes with a disquieting fear that someone is out there watching, because someone is killing every witness tied to this decades-old crime. Morgan and Lance follow in the shadows of a relentless killer and walk right into the cross fire.

Bones Don't Lie

Just as attorney Morgan Dane and PI Lance Kruger think things are going well, the car owned by Lance's father turns up in a local lake with a human skeleton in the trunk, raising the issue of his father's disappearance 23 years before.  Lance doesn't want to keep secrets from his mother, but he must let her know what is going on, even if it puts her mental health in jeopardy. The investigation raises questions that Lance can't answer, and he begins distancing himself from Morgan.  However, she is not willing to let go of a relationship that has made her feel happy for the first time since the death of her husband.

Bones Don't Lie is an absorbing mystery with lots of clues and suspects, almost too many, muddying the waters of the investigation.  It would have been nice to see more of Morgan and her girls, but Lance take center stage in this one.  While the mystery is engrossing, the romance between Morgan and Lance takes a back seat, removing much of the emotion between the characters.  Overall, Bones Don't Lie is a very good mystery with romantic elements at a minimum.
