Ode to the Bones review

This is the 30th book in the super long-running Sarah Booth Delaney mysteries by Carolyn Haines and I’ve read that it’s the second last book in the series so there’s lots going on in this action-packed installment.

My Goodreads review:

Ode to the Bones: A Sarah Booth Delaney MysteryOde to the Bones: A Sarah Booth Delaney Mystery by Carolyn Haines
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It all started with Oscar hiring Tinkie and Sarah Booth to find a bank loan customer of his that he’d foreclosed on. The guy just disappeared and the whole town thought he was either dead or just laying low for some reason.

What followed was the wild adventure we’ve come to know and love about Sarah Booth and Tinkie’s PI business. Sarah Booth was shot at and nearly eaten alive by river bugs, not to mention sunburned to a crisp after spending a day looking for the missing man. There were a couple funny scenes too one which involved a sketchy land buyer and another with a really annoying woman Sarah Booth wanted info from.

The ending was pretty disturbing in a psychological kinda way and I’m more eager than ever to see what’s going on in Sarah Booth’s head and what really happened as far as that mysterious note she got. I believe I read this was the second last book in this very long-running series and all would be explained in the final book. Yikes, we have to wait until October for the next book!

I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book provided by St. Martin Paperbacks/ Minotaur Books via NetGalley, and my opinions are my own.
