Leaving The Bones Behind

Forensic anthropologist Erica Braxton, Joshua’s daughter and a quadriplegic, downs a lethal barbituate in the opening scene of Gabriel’s Covenant. Forty-five minutes later Frau Schroder, a registered anesthetist in Zurich, pronounces her dead. Joshua could have stopped the killing . . . her assisted suicide. He chooses not to. Why? There is an answer. It's buried inside Joshua and becomes curiously tangled in the history of Gabriel’s Crossing, a rural Thornton Wilder, Grover’s Corners kind of place where the living and the dead are sometimes not remembered, for reasons buried deep within the collective conscience of one family, the Armstrongs.   100% of author royalties from the paperback sales of Gary Watson's three books go to the Elephant Crisis Fund set up by Wildlife Conservation Network and Save the Elephants. This innovative fund operates using a no-overhead model allowing 100% of all funds raised to go directly to the best, most urgent, and most innovative actions on the ground by organizations great and small to stop the killing of elephants throughout Africa.

Reporter Jake Martin and lawman Edgar Quinn have come to Sanderson, a tiny south Georgia town, to escape their pasts and resurrect their careers. Jake settles in as editor of the local newspaper and writes about cow rescues and civic club meetings. Quinn becomes police chief and starts chaperoning high school spring dances and cleaning up Senior Week pranks. The town's sedate routine is shattered when three local malcontents are killed one-by-one in sadistic rituals. Working together on the murders, Jake and Quinn discover they aren't the only Sanderson residents running from their pasts. Jake and Quinn learn much about themselves, but can they learn enough about the people closest to them in time to prevent the killer from striking again? As Jake and Quinn come to realize, everyone at some point in their lives needs a second chance. In The Second Chapter of a Bad Dream, someone is willing to resort to extraordinary measures to get that second chance.
