War scorches the land, and no one survives it alone. Amid the devastation, they find something in the arms of a dying man: the gilded skull of a saint.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is said that if you reunite the saint’s skull with her body, a wish will be granted. Desperate for salvation, and each with secret desires of their own, Ursula and Elsebeth follow a ragged map across the blighted countryside. But darkness follows them. A necromancer, drawn to the relic’s power. The saint herself, whispering at night. And as the lines between blessing and curse blur, the women must face a harrowing truth: the magic they seek comes at a cost.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt the journey’s end, they’ll face an impossible choice―one that could tear apart everything they know…or bind them to each other forever.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eAs beautiful and tender as it is dark and terrifying,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold a-text-italic\"\u003eBone of My Bone\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eshowcases one of queer horror’s most exciting writers in her most chilling tale yet.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Johanna van Veen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":61742668579146,"sku":null,"price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1037\/5256\/5066\/files\/81_e3eC13AL._SL1500.jpg?v=1777633654","url":"https:\/\/mavisbookshop.com\/products\/pre-order-bone-of-my-bone-paperback","provider":"Mavis","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
