The Bone Shrine: A Coming of Age Crime Drama, Book One

The Bone Shrine has been praised as "both intimate and universal--a peek into the raw struggles of teen pregnancy and addiction, injustice and forgiveness." The gripping crime drama sings with the spirit of Mary. Her teen sweetheart, Joe, longs for her, the girl he's accused of drowning.

Joe Gardner--a bright and promising kid--was a solid baseball prospect and involved with his town's big new museum. After a serious injury, the teen slipped into the vortex of opioid and heroin addiction. On their star-crossed night by the Bone Shrine, Joe stumbles on a stash of China White and, inadvertently, causes a major drug deal to go sideways. The moment he tries to sample the heroin, Mary Quinn's water breaks. When the healthy baby arrives, Joe sees that the newborn couldn't be his.
