Rookie cop Tito Morales arrives at the Trianon hotel to investigate a routine disturbance call and, to his shock and horror, watches as a wealthy oil man plunges ten stories and impales himself on a nearby fence. Soon Morales is joined by detective Jimmy Paz, famous throughout the city for solving -- or at least providing a plausible solution to -- the so-called Voodoo Murders that left Miami burning months earlier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTogether Paz and Morales enter the hotel and discover in the dead man's room a most unusual suspect, an otherworldly woman by the name of Emmylou Dideroff. She emerges from a prayerlike state and says she wants to confess and asks for a pen and several notebooks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat Emmylou writes is nothing like what Paz expects; he enlists psychologist Lorna Wise in an effort to make sense of things that go beyond Emmylou's explanation of the murder: details of childhood abuse, of other crimes committed, of regular communion with saints -- and with the devil. Is she mentally disturbed? Does she really believe herself to be an instrument of God? And why is it that so many people -- including Paz's biological father -- are suddenly interested in the contents of these notebooks and in preventing them from becoming public?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEmmylou's \"\"confession\"\" leads Jimmy Paz, Lorna Wise, and Tito Morales down a series of unexpected and dangerous turns that forces them each to confront questions about faith, love, and the possibility of the miraculous.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePerformed by Kate Forbes and Jonathan Davis\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michael Gruber","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46900124418197,"sku":"9780060829179","price":35.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0484\/3175\/9509\/files\/9780060829179.png?v=1777422872","url":"https:\/\/harpercollins.com.au\/products\/9780060829179_valley-of-bones","provider":"HarperCollins AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
