The Bone PolisherSimeon Grist is a hip, thirty-something P.I. with a nose for trouble. In The Bone Polisher, Simeon is on the trail of a brutal killer who is preying on Los Angeles's gay community. The murderer is called the Bone Polisher, the ancient Chinese name for those who returned the dead to their homes, because all his victims are killed in the same gruesome way. And all his victims harbor a secret, a secret the Bone Polisher is desperate to reveal - at any cost. |
