# Silent Bones by Rachel Lynch (Paperback)

A dead body keeps no secrets...

An extreme drought hits the Lake District, uncovering a skeleton at the bottom of Thirlmere reservoir. Forensics identify that the body, a young man, must have entered the water with his arms tied behind his back: this was no accidental death. The case quickly becomes personal for DI Kelly Porter when she discovers it's the remains of an old classmate, missing for over twenty years.

A day later, another body is found in a caravan park, its skull brutally caved in. Another former classmate with a troubled history.

Kelly suspects these two crimes are linked. But if she's right, that means there's a ruthless killer somewhere in her community someone who will do anything to keep the truth buried

**A brilliantly clever, 'finish-in-one-night' murder mystery starring the hugely popular DI Kelly Porter, set in the stunning mountains and valleys of the Lake District. A must-read from million copy bestseller Rachel Lynch, for fans of L. J. Ross, Carol Wyer and Angela Marsons.**
