About this ebook

Missing children. A prophet who speaks for the dead. And a powerful cabal who will do anything to keep their secrets buried.

When a mysterious stranger with a forgotten past wanders into an unmapped Georgia town, he’s suspected of being responsible for recent kidnappings. But while his ability to see a person’s final memories before death by touching their bones will help to clear his name and bring closure to the victims’ families, it also puts him square in the crosshairs of those who want to keep their crimes quiet. Will the rich and powerful be allowed to continue their exploitation unchecked, or will the so-called prophet shine a light on generations of secrets kept in the darkness?

“Knucklebones” is a Southern fiction story set in Georgia that introduces a supernatural detective in his first thrilling, cold case-solving adventure. If you like Stephen King’s “Dead Zone,” John Grisham’s “A Time to Kill,” and the Southern-fried storytelling of Carl Hiaasen, you’ll love the first installment in Dave Trumbore’s “Knucklebones” series.

Buy “Knucklebones” now to meet the next great supernatural detective as he solves cases ripped from the headlines!

Raw and powerful, this book shines a bright jagged light on the atrocities one human can perpetrate on another. Add in a mysterious man with no memories and a gift for reading the bones of the dead, and you've got yourself one heck of a ride. I'm on to the next in the series. I've already started the coffee - and locked the doors.

About the author

I'm Dave Trumbore, and I write books for people who like books more than people.

As a full-time editor, former entertainment news journalist and freelance pop science writer, I've been writing professionally for over a decade. In addition to authoring the non-fiction book, "The Science of Breaking Bad," my bestselling debut thriller "Knucklebones" introduced the born-again prophet Ezekiel, whose crime-solving adventures are ripped from the headlines. Book Two, "Bone Tide," is now available!

I live with my beautiful and multi-talented wife outside of Atlanta, where we venture into the many and varied Georgia landscapes that help to inform and inspire the "Knucklebones" stories.
