Publishers Description: This third novel from acclaimed Queensland author Sally Piper focuses on the repercussions, within one family, of a terrible crime. Even though sixteen years have passed, Billie will never recover from the murder of her daughter, Jess, and clings to her memory — and the site of her death — like a life raft. Daniel, who was a toddler when his mother was killed, can recall little of what happened but knows if hes to have any chance of a better future he needs to move on from that defining event if only his grandmother would let him. Meanwhile Daniels stepmother, Carla, also feels trapped by Jesss legacy but has a plan that she believes will help everyone to escape from the long shadow of the past.Deeply human, evocative and beautifully written, Bone Memories explores themes of human connection and the memorialisation of place.
