A London gallery receives a shocking letter about a sculpture they’ve been displaying. A scientist says one of the “animal bones� included in the piece actually appears to be human. Now, a representative of the sculpture’s owner must visit the now-deceased artist’s home on a remote Scottish island and speak to her longtime best friend to try to get to the bottom of the mystery. What he doesn’t realize is that he may be in terrible danger.
Overall, I enjoyed this book a lot. I think the author did a great job of creating complex characters and digging into themes like misogyny and loneliness. This is definitely a slower-paced thriller on the literary end of the spectrum, so don’t go into it expecting rapid twists and turns. I didn’t love the ending, but I think it was a bold choice and I like when authors take risks. This book wasn’t a favourite for me, but I’d still recommend giving it a try.
