Thank you Netgalley for the ARC of this book. She did it again!! Another incredible mystery of this series. This one handles a cold case and flashbacks that were pretty intense. It kept me guessing and flipping pages. Highly recommend!!

Thank you to Bookouture for my copy of this book via Netgalley. I love Detective Maddison Harper and have followed this series since the beginning. This is the 6th book in the series but you could read each book as a standalone.

This book switches between now and flashbacks to 15 years ago. This case is a very sick and twisted. As a new mother, this one really hit me. I found it a very shocking and heart-breaking story.

Wendy really knows how to create a suspense filled mystery. This story was fast paced and was rather baffling. Who is this family? Where did they come from?
and who would want to kill them? Wendy had me on the edge of my seat trying to guess the answers to these questions.

Wendy has done it again, a detective series that made me cry. When I found out the truth about this book I cried.

So much to unpack with this tale, Owen off to college, Madison adjusting to the fallout from the last book, Nate's restlessness and a missing child. There is nothing worse than that…well what about her entire family bludgeoned to death. It’s harrowing.

The case takes so many twists and turns and goes painstakingly slow as we deal in real time and the fact a little girl is missing makes things more upsetting.

His book also sets up the next one perfectly as we know what case we are going to be following.

I have been a huge fan of Wendy’s from the start. She captivates me with her writing, and boy does she go dark. I say it every time but this is her darkest work to date. She knows how to play on your fears and she amplifies them with a slow real-time pace. I’m surprised I have any nails left.

This is most definitely the Madison Harper series but Nate is forgotten, he has his demons and own story to tell but he is always linked to Madison. Never straying too far, but now his cold case is linked to her, just not in the way we thought imaginable.

What a book.

This is book 6 in the series. You can easily read it on its own. I just cant get enough of this series and will read anything this author writes. This one is also about her personal relationships.

A great read
Sixth in the series of Detective Madison Harper
Read this in one sitting
Could not put it down
Love this ladies books
Thanks NetGalley

Plenty of twists will keep you and Detective Madison Harper guessing as she races to solve the case. This is the first book I’ve read in the series, and I’m going to read the previous ones and future books. Write fast please. A must read.

Thank you NetGalley for this advance reader copy in exchange for my honest and free review. What an absolute roller coaster ride from start to finish. Intriguing and suspense filled storyline that will keep you on your toes and wanting more every page. Highly recommend.

✨My Thoughts✨

This is one of my favourite Detective Series ever and I couldn’t wait to delve into the pages and get my Madison & Nate fix!.
( And Brody)

We’re back in Lost Creek with another horrific crime for Madison and her team to solve along with Nate and Brody’s help.

This story has 2 timelines one from the past and one from the present, they’re both so shocking and mysterious that I really couldn’t guess what was happening or who the culprit was.

This really was an edge of your seat page turner that I couldn’t get enough off.

After everything that Madison and Nate have been through they deserves some happiness and this book finally made that happen!!.

I think this book and the first in the series are my favourites.

The Detective Madison Harper remains my favorite crime series thriller. I absolutely love the MCs, Madison and Nate and all the other characters including the magnificent radar dog, Brody. Their background stories have always appealed to me and I think this is one reason why this series continues to be so strong.

This installment began with a gruesome discovery. A whole family is murdered in their home. It’s as cold as it can get as the killer did not spare even the little twin boys. What first began as a search for a killer becomes more complex when it is covered that the family also had a daughter who is now nowhere to be found. The detectives began the race against time to find the daughter as they also search for the killer. Tensions get higher when the case is tied to a cold case.

This was quite a twisty read. I couldn’t guess the perp’s identity and the reveal was quite a shock. The coldness of the crime and the perp sent a chill down my spine. All in all, quite well written and every bit thrilling. Although this can be read as a standalone, the series is better enjoyed when read in order.

This was a PAGE TURNER! This is a book to get you out of your reading RUT! I was nervous going into this because I know that there were other books prior.. but I was able to read this just fine. This story absolutely sucked me in. I read it in ONE SITTING. Perfect for the spooky vibes of October. I plan to read more Wendy Dranfield novels!

LOVED LOVED LOVED!! This is book 6 in the detective Madison Harper series and it was SO WILD AND ADDICTIVE. I love all the characters and how Wendy Dranfield draws you in with the prologue and keeps you guessing until the very end! I’m was so very very happy that some of the characters FINALLY got their moment! I won’t give any spoilers but this is a fast paced crime thriller series that will keep you up all night long!

MARVELOUS addition to this wonderful series which I have faithfully read from the very beginning. Riveting
story line, well written & with great characters portrayed by Madison & Nate. Enjoyed fully & RECOMMEND highly this & the full series. Thanks to NetGalley & Bookouture for this arc in return for my honest review.

This is a really great thriller! It had some unexpected moments I didn't see coming and is very well done. An absolute page-turner I would recommend! Special Thank you to Wendy Dranfield, Bookouture and NetGalley for allowing me to read a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review.

Love love love! I can’t say enough good things about this book. I love this series and the growth the characters have had since book 1.
In this instalment Madison is called to the scene of a murder where all may not be as it seems - there also appears to be a child missing from the scene. Can Madison and Nate - whose own case leads him on the same trail as Madison solve the case and find the child before anyone else dies. So fast paced, it’s hard to put it down!

This was my first book in this series and I would definitely like to read more by this author. This can be read as a standalone, however. Madison is tasked with investigating the brutal deaths of twin boys and their mother and her boyfriend. The story goes back and forth between 15 years ago and now and everything is nicely figured out in the end. It was very shocking to finally learn the truth.

Her Lonely Bones by Wendy Dranfield is the sixth book in the brilliant Detective Madison Harper series and what a series this is. This is a series that just gets better and better. Every page I turn on my kindle is full of twists and turns that will have you gripped form the beginning full the very end.

Her Lonely Bones is Wendy's best book so far but then, all her books are a 5 star read.....They will not disappoint. Just brilliant!!!

I highly recommend this series.....

Big thank you to Netgalley and especially Bookouture for my ARC.

Madison Harper is tasked with investigating the death of twin boys and their parents. Everyone thinks it was a home invasion but Detective Harper believes there is more to it than the obvious. She soon learns that the family had only moved to the town recently. She soon learns not only did no one know them she isn't even sure if they owned the house they were living in. Now she not only has to solve four murders but figure out who these people are and what brought them to her town. While doing a search she finds a tiny t-shirt that says Daddy's Girl. Did the family also.have a daughter and if so where is she? Follow along and see if Madison can not only discover who this family was but who killed them and why!

Her Lonely Bones is book 6 in the Madison Harper series by Wendy Dranfield. I have never read a book in the series and jumped in with this one. I absolutely loved Her Lonely Bones and could barely keep up with all of the twists down the stretch! This book will blow your mind! I'm usually one to figure out the killer before the end, but not with this book! If you love a good mystery that is hard to figure out, this is the book for you! I will also say that jumping in on book 6 was okay as you are given crucial background info, but not all info is possible. I definitely want to go back and read the first 5 books in the series.

Detective Madison Harper is dealing with a lot in this book as her son, Owen, is leaving for college in a week. Madison is a wreck over it, but is trying to hide that from Owen. She wants Owen to go to college and have some fun, but she's going to miss him so much. An empty house to come home to after work doesn't excite her. Madison gets a call about a horrific murder and is asked to come to the scene immediately. When Madison arrives at the house there are many cops already there working the scene. What Madison finds inside will haunt her for weeks to come. A couple is dead in their bed and their faces have been smashed in so much that they have no face anymore!
In the next room a young boy is dead in his bed and because of his bluish coloring it is assumed he was suffocated with his pillow. Who would do this and why?

Madison finds out that the couple had just moved in and she wonders why they would move in to such a rundown house? There's hardly any furniture, no pictures, and they brought very little with them. No cellphones or ID's have been found so they have no idea who these people are. When Madison is outside walking around the yard she hears a faint cough. As she approaches the area where it's coming from she hears it again. She goes into the bushes and there's a young boy laying there holding his hand over a wound in his stomach. He's been stabbed and has lost a lot of blood. Madison tries to help him and applies pressure to the wound. Then she picks him up and runs to the front yelling for EMS. Madison and another officer give the boy CPR while they wait for the ambulance. Before the boy lost consciousness, he asked where his mom was? By the time EMS arrives, it's too late. The boy is gone. An entire family killed while they slept.

As the police go around to the neighbors houses to try to get information on the family they quickly realize that no one knows them as they just moved in. Madison notices a trailer that must've been pulled behind their vehicle. Her partner, Adams, who was supposed to have checked everything before she arrived had already dropped the ball. He should've been the one to find the boy and if he had, the boy might still be alive. She knows that he said everything was checked, but Madison goes in the trailer anyways. She sees 2 moving boxes inside. She opens one and pulls out clothing, but it's girl's clothing for a 2-3 year old. Madison's heart starts pounding as she now thinks there's another child and she's missing!

As Madison and her team investigate they're not only looking for the killer, but they have to figure out who the victims were! How has no one reported them missing? Where did they come from? Why are there no wallets, no cellphones, and nothing to give them any help? The neighbor who sent the police for a welfare check said she and her grandson came by to introduce themselves. They found the front door ajar and when the woman was calling out, her grandson ran upstairs. The way he screamed terrified her so much that they ran from the house. She knew something was very, very wrong.

As time is ticking by, Madison fears that the chances of finding the girl alive are getting smaller and smaller. As she discovers a secret about the dead family things start to get even more complicated. Will Madison and her team be able to find the girl? Will a cold case help with this case? A terrible thing happened at this same house years ago. Are the two incidents related? Why are the neighbors so secretive? Someone knows something and Madison is determined to find out who! Does the detective who worked the cold case know more than he's saying? Did the man in prison really do what he's accused of from the cold case? Will Madison be able to solve the case before someone else dies?

Her Lonely Bones will keep you guessing throughout and it's impossible to put down! I really love the characters in the book and look forward to reading the next book in the Madison Harper series. I rate the book 5 stars with my highest recommendation. I'd like to thank NetGalley and Bookouture for an advanced copy of Her Lonely Bones in exchange for a fair review. #HerLonelyBones

I adore Madison Harper and I have been so glad she is back. I feel like I’ve waited far too long for her return. However, it has been completely worth the wait and this is a gem from beginning to end.

The plot is just brilliant from beginning to end. The opening hooks you instantly as a reader. I was desperate to know how this was going to pan out and definitely failed at predicting this one.

I love the characters, it’s been great to revisit familiar faces and meet newbies. Each are well developed and you really get a sense of who they are and what they are about.

This is a must read book and series. I’ve read all of these books and they get better and better. There have been plenty of suspects which has made it hard for me to predict who the guilty is.

I absolutely adore these books. A must read series.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Just absolutely wow! This series gets better and better. Loved this latest instalment and cannot wait for the next. Just wonderful!
