A Flood of Bones: An Alicia Friend Investigation

A fifty-year-old murder spree. A modern-day killing. A town drowning in secrets.

As floodwaters recede in a rural West Yorkshire town, they reveal a grisly discovery - multiple bodies buried together in what seems like an ancient grave. But when detectives realize the remains are from a murder spree fifty years ago, a dark mystery emerges.

Before the town can process the shock, a young local woman is brutally murdered. The past and present collide, and tensions in the close-knit community reach a boiling point.

Detective Inspector Alicia Friend is drawn into a chilling case where the secrets of a small town stretch back centuries. As Alicia uncovers connections to a psychotic 19th-century priest, a white supremacist group, and the disturbing theory of a multi-generational cult, the case spirals out of control.

With suspects around every corner and bodies piling up, Alicia must race against time to stop a killer who may have been lurking for decades. 

But the deeper she digs, the more she realizes that in this town, anyone could be the next victim - or the murderer.

A Flood of Bones is the sixth novel in the Alicia Friend thriller series by best-selling author A. D. Davies. Dive into the addictive world of Detective Alicia Friend, where every case is as unpredictable as she is.
