No Bones About It

Doctor Angela Kirk, paleontological research specialist, knows bones. But when she is brought on as an expert consultant by a desperate detective, she finds herself stumped. A body has turned up at the local museum, clearly gutted by an Allosaurus claw. Is it a case of a prehistoric murder weapon? Or have the dinosaur bones begun to partake in after-hours activities?

With the help of an intrepid young medical examiner, a no-nonsense cop, and an eccentric spiritualist, Doctor Kirk is determined to get to the bottom of this mystery.

R. R. Loar is a bestselling author of supernatural thrillers.

Loar grew up in snowy Minnesota, where her story takes place, and was inspired by the woods and lakes of her beautiful Midwestern home. Serene and peaceful by day, spooky and otherworldly at night. Even the most innocent stand of trees can hold terrifying secrets after dark.

When she is not writing her next bestseller, R. R. Loar can be found dabbling in nature photography, scuba diving, playing with her three cats, or, of course, reading and watching horror.

Rita’s seemingly ordinary house-cat is more than meets the eye. When her tabby, Mittens, develops a craving for human flesh, Rita will do anything to hide her cat’s gruesome true identity. But the bodies are piling up, and Rita is losing her nerve.

Officer Sandra Polk has never seen anything like it. Dascal isn’t supposed to have mountain lions. But whatever is killing people, it’s bigger, stealthier, and deadlier than anything native to the area.

Polk and Rita find themselves at a deadly crossroads. One will do anything to protect her cat’s deadly secret. The other will do whatever it takes to protect her community.

As time runs out for all three, Mittens throws a wrench in the gears that neither woman could predict.
