      "Silvis is at it again, striving for a blend of crime story and literature, mutilated bodies and lapidary prose."--Booklist Just when you think you've reached the bottom... Ryan DeMarco would rather not go home. Not now, maybe not ever. But when his estranged wife attempts suicide, he has no choice but to return to western Pennsylvania, and all the memories that wait for him there. Unfortunately, it's not only ghosts from the past waiting to greet DeMarco upon his return. An old high school classmate has risen through the ranks to become a county sheriff, and he is desperate for help investigating a series of murders that might tie into a cold case from his and DeMarco's school days. DeMarco and his new love, Jayme, agree to join the team working on the case. But it's not easy for DeMarco to be walking the streets of his troubled past, and the deeper he and Jayme dig into the disturbing murders the less likely it is that either one of them will escape the devastation. An emotionally wrenching thriller, perfect for readers of Harlan Coben and Lisa Regan. Ryan DeMarco Mystery Series: Two Days Gone (Book 1) Walking the Bones (Book 2) A Long Way Down (Book 3)

      When long-buried secrets come back to the surface... The bones of seven young girls, picked clean and carefully preserved, discovered years ago... that's all Sergeant Ryan DeMarco knows about the unsolved crime he has unwittingly been roped into investigating during what is supposed to be a healing road trip with his new love, Jayme. DeMarco is still reeling from the case that led to death of his best friend months ago and wants nothing more than to lay low. Unfortunately, the small southern town of Jayme's idyllic youth is not exactly a place that lets strangers go unnoticed--especially strangers who have a history of solving violent crimes. And if there's anything DeMarco knows, it's that a killer always leaves clues behind, just waiting for the right person to come along and put all the pieces together... Walking the Bones is a story about things buried--memories, regrets, secrets, and bodies. Acclaimed author Randall Silvis delivers another heart-stopping investigation as DeMarco finds himself once again drawn into a case that will demand more of himself than he may be willing to give.

      Malé univerzitní město v Pensylvánii se jednoho říjnového rána probouzí s děsivou zprávou, že žena a tři děti místního hrdiny Thomase Hustona, milovaného profesora a oblíbeného spisovatele, byli zavražděni v jejich domě. Huston sám zmizel, a tak se okamžitě stane hlavním podezřelým. Seržant Ryan DeMarco je muž, který má mnoho tajemství a zápasí se svými démony, a byl Hustonovým přítelem. Nevěří, že muž, kterého tolik obdivoval, by mohl být schopen takového trestného činu. DeMarco se ponoří do Hustonových poznámek, které měly sloužit k přípravě jeho nového románu, a doufá, že zde najde něco, co by vraždy objasnilo.
