War scorches the land, and no one survives it alone.

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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Decadently atmospheric and deeply unsettling, \u003cem\u003eBone of My Bone\u003c\/em\u003e delivers a deliciously disturbing tale about survival and the choices we're forced to make along the way.
