Mayor masterfully chronicles Gunther's methodical pursuit of the truth, weaving together threads of the past and present as the investigation uncovers buried secrets, old grudges, and a killer who has long believed the crime was forgotten. The novel's tone is measured and atmospheric, grounded in the rugged, small-town landscape of Vermont, which Mayor renders with an authenticity born of deep regional familiarity. Fans of thoughtful, character-driven police procedurals will find Gunther a compelling and quietly tenacious protagonist whose moral steadiness anchors even the most complex cases.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887947165915,"sku":"2026100004985-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/e34e7f4d-145f-4815-8c42-020f48978050.png?v=1781750218","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100004985-secondhand-the-skeletons-knee","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
