All the Bones in Brooks County, Texas (Book 1)

HOW DO YOU CATCH A KILLER

WHEN YOU CAN'T NAME HIS VICTIMS?

A mother and child buried in desert dirt…

No names. No missing persons report. No one asking questions…

Until now.

Deputy Hondo Velazquez just caught the case that’ll either make his career… or end it.

A former Marine corporal, Hondo has taken a lowly job as the newest badge in Brooks County, Texas––a place where the border crisis has everyone on edge. 

For a man trained for war, it feels like a demotion.

But when the bones of a mother and child are unearthed on a remote oil ranch, Hondo is dragged into a world of violence he thought he left behind.

No one wants the case. Everyone wants him to look the other way.

Except for Magnolia Moss, a forensic analyst fighting her own demons and a department desperate to keep the past buried. She's been tracking the signs of a serial killer for years.

And now she has an ally.

Together, the two must face a system of power and prestige designed to bury the truth and anyone who comes close to it. They must dig deep within themselves to face a killer so close to home that it threatens to shake the foundations of everything they think they know.

And when they finally uncover the truth... they'll wish they'd never started digging in the first place.

ALL THE BONES IN BROOKS COUNTY, TEXAS is the gripping first book in the 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 screenwriter, each book in this series promises a cinematic experience that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
