THE UNPUTDOWNABLE NEW THRILLER FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE NEXT GIRL What if your child went missing... and everyone thought it was your fault? Julia Dawson’s daughter is gone. She knows everyone thinks Christina is dead; that people say Christina ran away to escape her controlling mother. But Christina would never do that, and Julia will never give up on finding her. Christina was a difficult child. Short tempered and secretive, she didn’t get on with her new step-father. What Julia remembers most is the sun on her daughter’s shocking red hair, and the sound of laughter as she would talk for hours on the phone with her friends. So when the broken body of a young girl is found and Julia is called in to identify her, she knows it isn’t her daughter. But the girl is just like Christina, with the same pale skin and brilliant red hair. Did this girl share a secret with Christina? If Julia finds out, could she get her daughter back? AN ABSOLUTELY HEART-STOPPING CRIME THRILLER FROM CARLA KOVACH – if you like Lisa Gardner, Robert Bryndza or Clare Mackintosh, Her Pretty Bones will have you hooked. **Each Gina Harte book can be read as part of the series or as a standalone**

This story is quite dark and twisted. But life often is for teens on the street. The book is hard to put down.

The third Gina Harte book. Deals with a murder but also with the problem of runaway. It keeps your interest throughout.

Her Pretty Bones is a compelling crime/ mystery thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat. The story follows DI Harte’s investigations into the death of one girl and the disappearance of two other girls. It is a well written novel that gives you glimpses into the ordeal one of the girls is going through as well as insights into what the detective is thinking. Just when I thought I had figured it out came the twist that solves the crime. If you love crime procedurals and mysteries this book is for you.

Twisting and turning and keeping you at the edge of your seat

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 28, 2019

It starts with a bang: a call to 911, woman screaming, knives involved... Then we are slowly sucked in the story with two women protagonists (neither of whom is, in all honesty, very likable - but it adds to reality of the events). As the plot unravels, we are being thrown back and forth, believing one over he other and not believing any...
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book, loved the writing, 4 stars is because I had some issues with timing & sequence of the events and, basically the ending was a bit of let down. Nevertheless, I do recommend it to lovers of suspense, thrillers and "twist in a tale".

Interesting read — Mind searching

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 10, 2019

Carla Kovach, the author, proves to be a great storyteller. I am sure much research went into her telling this story — almost seems real. Filled with many believable characters that add to the story and many twist and turns that keep the reader guessing and in suspense. Highly recommended. Interesting and complete with a timely and thought provoking conclusion. Excellent read.

I liked it.
It has a totally british vibe, not the more "go, go, go" aproach of some american authors.

An engaging and twisty police procedural.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on February 18, 2022

Verified Purchase

Her Pretty Bones, book three in the Detective Gina Harte series is an engaging and twisty read. That sees D.I. Harte and her team investigate when a young girl falls out the back of a moving van emaciated and bloody muttering the words "help her."

Yet, with no ID or idea who they are supposed to help and little evidence to go on, and with Gina still recovering from the attack she suffered during her last case finding answers isn't easy. But with the discovery of a body and a mum desperately searching for her missing daughter Gina knows she and her team need to act fast.

Would recommend.

HER PRETTY BONES

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on September 22, 2019

Verified Purchase

3rd story in this series of books about female detective Gina Harte. This story was based around homeless girls being offered work in a house looking after a disabled woman and then getting hooked on drugs and being kept captive. As with all the stories in this series it also focuses on Gina Harte's struggle to come to terms with the abusive relationship she had with her (now dead) husband. I found myself staying up late to find out what happens at the end. Having read the first two in this series I feel that though they're well written they are quite repetitive in their story line so not sure I'll read any more.

Captivating read.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 19, 2019

Verified Purchase

Wow, what a fab read. The third gripping instalment in the Gina Harts series, one not to be missed. I love this character and the secrets she's keeping from family and friends. That's what makes the series so addictive and compelling to read.

The prologue alone will keep you turning the pages, this is set in the past and is obviously a vital part of the plot but it's the first chapter where the book really took off for me, when a man driving down a country lane sees a girl lying in the road, did he hit her? He doesn't think so. It turns out she fell out the back of a van. The girl is emaciated and her organs are failing.

What unfolds next is a twisty turny plot that sometimes made me gasp. Not going to say more because I don't believe in writing spoilers in my reviews. Highly recommended as are the other two books in this series.

Entertaining

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on May 21, 2019

I really did like this book and wanted to give it 5stars! but I lost patience with Gina when after being beaten with a crowbar no less! she runs after her assailant with a TORCH!!! and promptly gets whacked again, then unable to stay at work because of her injuries she goes home and is attacked again, and once again refuses hospital treatment. It’s nice to have a brave female police officer but for a book to be five stars it’s got to have a little realism in it, if she has to or wants to stay on the job please make the injuries less life threatening so it’s believable that she CAN continue with her work. Other than that I did like it

Third book and still going strong, Gina is struggling with the aftermath of being attacked in her own home. This lady is crawling with grief and guilt .... can she put her cross down soon?? This book sees us with an emaciated girl falling out the back of the van.
