Synopsis (Goodreads):
FBI Special Agent Cate Wilde is back home on a remote Pacific Northwest island when she gets the call: a teenager’s skeletal remains have been found on a nearby island.Thoughts on Close to the Bone: Yesss. A new series to sink my teeth into. I've gotta say the history of the islands is almost as compelling as the characters who populate it. Well, that and the weirdness he police force has to deal with.
Together with Tessa Black, a childhood friend turned local deputy, Cate confronts dreary weather and bleak leads to make sense of the death. The complications pile up as Cate is distracted by the coroner on the case—and by nagging memories that draw her twenty years into the past. The remains suggest eerie similarities between this victim, and Cate and Tessa’s friend Samantha, who disappeared when she was fourteen.
Cate finds herself up against closemouthed locals, buried town secrets, and even her own heart. As the case unravels, will she be able to cut through the fog and find justice for the missing and the dead.
Speaking of which, Cate is...dealing with stuff. On leave after an injury puts her temporarily out of commission, she's willing to step in and be the FBI presence on the island when bones are found, but she's not moving at full speed. Which doesn't ultimately slow her down, because her brain's in full working order, but still. She's a little damaged and a still nursing some emotional fallout from what brought her home.
The new town doc stirs things up for her even more. Plus, the memories of losing one of her best friends twenty years earlier.
I dig the history. I like the characters. I'm kinda excited to see what the next couple books bring.
