Some doors are nailed shut for a reason.
But Evan Buckley kicks them down.
Evan Buckley’s wife, Sarah, left for work one day and never came home. That was years ago—and he’s never stopped searching. To fill the void, Evan throws himself into other people’s tragedies, chasing justice for the broken and forgotten.
His latest case? Linda Clayton—a reclusive woman whose son vanished without a trace ten years ago, followed by her husband’s sudden disappearance. She’s been living a nightmare ever since.
And Evan’s about to become part of it.
Still reeling from his last case gone wrong, Evan sees a chance to redeem himself. But the deeper he digs into the cold trail, the more dangerous it becomes. Someone doesn’t want the truth exposed. Someone who’s killed to keep it buried—and won’t hesitate to kill again.
Driven by guilt. Fueled by rage.
Evan Buckley is about to cross a line—and there’s no going back.
Bad to the Bones is the pulse-pounding first novel in the Evan Buckley Thriller series by James Harper—a gritty, emotional rollercoaster packed with dark secrets, razor-sharp twists, and a relentless protagonist who doesn’t know when to quit.
Perfect for fans of Lee Child, Robert Dugoni, and Michael Connelly.
