All the Bones They Left Behind (Book 2)

HOW DO YOU STOP A KILLER

WHEN YOU’RE THE PRIME SUSPECT?

When floodwaters unearth skeletal remains beneath a long-abandoned orphanage, Sheriff Hondo Velazquez is called to the Texas Hill Country to confront a chilling discovery: his own initials carved into a bone. 

Miles from his own jurisdiction, Hondo is a man with no authority and a dark past he’s spent a lifetime outrunning. Now, as a vigilante begins a white-hot killing spree targeting the orphanage's former staff, the local detectives are closing in––and every piece of evidence points directly at Hondo. 

Trapped in a city that wants him in a cage, Hondo is in a race against time. He isn’t just hunting a killer who knows his every secret... he’s fighting to save the future he and his new wife, Magnolia, are desperate to build.

To stop a killer forged from the same childhood fires, Hondo must face the boy he left behind––and the secrets they both buried.

All the Bones They Left Behind is the scintillating second book in the action-packed Hondo Velazquez Thriller Series, perfect for fans of C.J. Box’s Joe Pickett, Craig Johnson’s Longmire, Michael Connelly's Bosch, and Jeff Carson’s David Wolf. Written by a Hollywood writer, each book in this series promises a cinematic experience that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
