The Nowhere Bones

Ancient secrets. A modern slaughter. And a frozen mountain that might become a graveyard.

A ruthless robbery of irreplaceable Paiute relics leaves two dead and plunges the High Lonesome into chaos. When two of wildlife ranger Nick Drake's oldest and closest friends vanish from the crime scene, Nick mounts a furious search that puts him on a direct collision course with a cold-blooded killer obsessed with the ancient past.

But the desert isn't done testing him.

Fresh off a wedding celebration and with a baby on the way, a sudden, catastrophic plane crash on a frozen, unforgiving mountainside cuts Nick and his wife Gemma off from the rest of the world. Trapped in a blinding blizzard, injured, and hunted by both the elements and an elusive predator, the couple are pushed to their absolute limits.

In this spellbinding installment of the award-winning series, the secrets of the past and the dangers of the present collide. To save his friends and protect his expanding family, Nick must summon every ounce of his combat survival instincts-because on this mountain, only one thing is certain: not everyone is making it back alive.
