Old Bones

Old Bones

A long-lost archaeological site. A tragic mystery buried for more than a century. Some secrets should never be unearthed.

Written by bestselling authors Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child, Old Bones is the gripping first novel in the Nora Kelly series. Archaeologist Nora Kelly is approached by historian Clive Benton, who claims to have discovered a long-lost diary connected to the infamous Donner Party—the group of American pioneers whose disastrous journey through the Sierra Nevada in 1847 ended in starvation, violence, and cannibalism. The diary appears to reveal the location of the mysterious "Lost Camp," an archaeological discovery that could rewrite history. Eager to uncover the truth, Nora leads an expedition into the remote mountains. But as ancient human remains begin to surface, the team realizes they are not alone. Someone is determined to keep the camp's horrifying secrets buried forever, and what they uncover is far more shocking than the historical tragedy itself. Rookie FBI agent Corrie Swanson joins the investigation as the mystery escalates into a deadly race against time. Blending archaeology, history, suspense, and crime, Old Bones delivers relentless twists and edge-of-your-seat excitement.

Published by Grand Central Publishing, Old Bones launches an exciting new series featuring the intelligent archaeologist Nora Kelly and the determined FBI agent Corrie Swanson. Combining meticulous historical research with fast-paced storytelling and suspenseful mystery, Preston and Child create a thriller that explores the dark legacy of one of America's most infamous historical events. Perfect for fans of archaeological mysteries, historical thrillers, and crime fiction, this novel is an unforgettable beginning to a compelling series.
