Their backpacking trip seems ill-fated from the start, though, when she must stop on the way to examine nine skeletons\u2014most likely Maori tribespeople\u2014whose graves have been unearthed by highway construction. Before she opens the first casket, a Maori elder gives her a dire warning: &#8220;The viewing of bones can unleash misfortune to the living. Or worse.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Though Alexa dismisses his words as superstitious, they soon come back to haunt her as the idyllic hike takes a sinister turn. First, Charlie is aloof and resentful of the time Alexa has spent at work. Then a rock avalanche nearly carries her away as it reveals the skeletal remains of someone who has clearly been stabbed to death. When a fellow hiker goes missing and is later found dead, Alexa has all she can do to focus on the science as she investigates two murders, while trying not to become the third victim.<\/p>\n<p>Books are available<a href=\"https:\/\/auntagathas.com\/aa\/store\/?model_number=9781464213977\"> here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our April book club will meet only on zoom on Wednesday, April 20 at 7 p.m. because of Easter Sunday on the 17th. \u00a0For more information, message us on facebook or email us at store (at) auntagathas.com.\u00a0 The publisher&#8217;s description of this book: A nature trek turns dangerous when the wilderness gives up its bones\u2026 &#8230; <a title=\"April Book Club: The Bone Track\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/auntagathas.com\/aa\/april-book-club-the-bone-track\/\" aria-label=\"Read more about April Book Club: The Bone Track\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4368","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/auntagathas.com\/aa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4368","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/auntagathas.com\/aa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/auntagathas.com\/aa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/auntagathas.com\/aa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/auntagathas.com\/aa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4368"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/auntagathas.com\/aa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4368\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4371,"href":"https:\/\/auntagathas.com\/aa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4368\/revisions\/4371"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/auntagathas.com\/aa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4368"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/auntagathas.com\/aa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4368"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/auntagathas.com\/aa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4368"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
