Inside the Book


Title: Three Small Bones
Author: Jennifer Chase
Publisher: Bookouture
Pages: 358
Genre: Crime Thriller

Smoke curls from what’s left of the beautiful family home on the edge of the woods. The heat is unbearable as she descends the stairs to the basement, past a set of bicycles––two big, one small. That’s when she sees three little white bones in the cracked earth at her feet, turning her blood to ice…

When firefighters tackling a blazing house in a quiet suburb of Pine Valley, California discover human remains, Detective Katie Scott races to 717 Maple Street. She calls a halt to the excavations the moment she sees the full number and size of the bones; someone has buried a whole family down here.

Working night and day, it’s up to Katie to prove her theory that the fire was no accident, that someone wanted to expose the secret in the basement. Tiny traces of explosives residue found at the scene is all the proof she needs. But the Cross family have been missing for months––leaving friends and loved ones in agonizing pain––what twisted soul would do this now? And why?

The case takes another heart-shattering turn when Katie’s suspicions over recent renovation work on the house leads to the discovery of more bodies in the back yard: two little girls, buried years apart. What other devastating secrets are hidden in this perfect family home?

It’s a dead end at every turn as Katie tracks down anyone who knew the family. Just when it looks like all hope is lost, reports of the Cross’s landlord harassing the family before they went missing gives Katie a crucial lead. With a menacing grey sedan following her every move, how many more innocent lives will be lost before Katie can dig up the truth?

“Edge-of-your-seat suspense to the very end! … Clear your schedule… you will not want to put it down!” Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars

“Love, love, LOVE… I absolutely adore this series!!” Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars

“Grabbed me from the very first page! It was so intense, and enthralling. I stayed up until 11pm two nights in a row so I could finish it.” NetGalley reviewer

Highlights

 

Perfect at Midnight (Review)

, "Chase really shows off her writing chops in some pretty tense action scenes that had me holding my breath. There were three chapters that were real nail-biters for me (chapters 25, 29, and 48 to be exact), so keep the caffeine nearby so you can keep up and not miss a single word. As for negatives, I have none to report. Everything was spot on and designed to thrill. It’s what made THREE SMALL BONES such an enjoyable albeit nerve-racking read! But don’t worry, Cisco’s got you covered! He always does. So curl up on the couch, keep your beverage of choice nearby and maybe some treats ... make that 'definitely' some treats ... and have yourself a read that you are sure to enjoy! Kudos to the author for delivering a winner!"

Community Bookstop (Review)

This book had so much going on with strong characters and intriguing storylines. It pulls you in and you
you want to know what happens in this book and keep reading until you have it all solved.  Definitely a great mystery read!

 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Novels Alive (Review)


"Three Small Bones provides a solid thriller that will keep you guessing until the end. As someone new to the series, I can look forward to reading the other books while waiting for Detective Scott’s next adventure to be written."

Fiction_Vixen18 @ Instagram (Review)

"I read this book as a standalone, and although I don't think I missed anything from the previous seven books in the series, it has made me want to go back and read them.
The characters within the story are really well developed and the case that is involved in the story will definitely stick with you.
I loved it!"

Booking with Janelle@Instagram (Review)

"...This book will take you for a ride, one you may not want to get off of or take another spin."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Digital Pubbing (Interview)

"It’s always my hope that readers are taken on an adventure to be taken out of the stresses of the day to enjoy a crime thriller. Three Small Bones takes the reader inside a cold case of new bodies and a twenty year old one—as the killer begins to stalk anyone related to the investigation."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fundinmental (Review)

"Three Small Bones is the third book I have read by Jennifer Chase. Ever since I read Dead Cold, an Emily Stone novel, I grab anything I see from her. Some books are five star, others not, but that won’t keep me from reading on..."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

eBook Addicts (Review)

Three Small Bones is book 8 in the Detetive Katie Scott series from Jennifer Chase. I joined this series late with book 7 Silent Little Angels, which proves that these can be read as a stand-alone as Chase provides enough backstory on the characters that you will feel you already know them from the get go.When a fire burns down a house seemingly to cover clues it instead reveals bodies in the basement and a possible link to a 25 year old cold case that Three Small Bones sees Katie and her K9 partner Cisco on the case to find out how these two case’s can possibly be connected. It was actually nice to see her fiancée Chad make an actual appearance in this book, he seemed so elusive in the last book I read I was beginning to wonder if he was really real or all in her head!"

Review Thick and Thin (Review)

"This is the eighth book in a series revolving around Detective Katie Scott and her K9 canine partner – Cisco. I love thriller or mystery books with a canine character. They add so much flavour to any story. I haven’t read any other book in the series, and can personally vouch that you can read this as a stand-alone. Chase does a fabulous job of building tension and suspense as the story progresses. The ending seemed a little disappointing, however, it didn’t ruin my enjoyment of the story. Considering this is a series, the author has put in an immense amount of effort to develop the characters. All the characters have strong background stories, and I found that impressive. If you love thrillers, cold cases keep you awake, and if you are a fan of canine sidekicks – this one is an absolute recommendation!!"
