SARA E. JOHNSON lives in Durham, North Carolina. She worked as a middle school reading specialist and local newspaper contributor before her husband lured her to New Zealand for a year. Her first novel, Molten Mud Murder, is the result, followed by The Bones Remember and The Bone Track.
"A vacation hiking New Zealand's Milford Track turns deadly for
forensic odontologist Alexa Glock, her brother, and the two dozen
people in their group. Familiarly novel territory for fans of Aaron
Elkins and Kathy Reichs." -- Kirkus Reviews
"Alexa muses, about the same time we do, that we're in a
"locked-room manor mystery," though this one is surrounded by a
natural world as malevolent as the humans inside. This third entry
in the Alexa Glock series takes the blinders off our view of the
great outdoors." -- Booklist
"Smart and relentlessly paced, The Bone Track is an ingenious
locked room mystery playing out on a famous hiking trail. The story
is shot through with the wild New Zealand landscape, the mysteries
of the Maori culture, and the clever mind of Alexa Glock. The
suspense ratchets up as the pieces of forensic evidence fit
together, the suspects are narrowed, and Alexa contends with the
hazards of nature and threats from the company of fellow hikers."
-- Frederick Weisel, author of The Silenced Women and The Day He
Left
"The real star here is New Zealand's Milford Track. Armchair
travelers will best appreciate this one." -- Publishers Weekly
"This book stands out due to its unusual location and
forensic-science focus...especially Alexa's fascinating specialty:
dead people's teeth." -- First Clue
