  <description><![CDATA[In the town of Astral, Pennsylvania dark secrets of ancestry are revealed when Steven and Tara Weaver inherit Steven's family property.  With the hopes of moving their two young children to the simple life of the country, Steven's past is hauntingly revealed.  Hope turns to terror.  Reality is twisted into a realm of darkness as the family discovers the truth.  Twists and turns abound in this riviting thriller.  Beware of the truth, it is ever changing.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Kimberly Raiser resides in St. Augustine, Florida with her family and her dreams.  Granddaughter of Henry Kunicki, whom grew up with noted physicist David Bohm; science fiction is no stranger to her craft.  The Family Bones will bring chills and thrills and a few laughs along the way.]]></description>

    <![CDATA[Simply put, the book is about a family, The Weavers, who inherit a house in a part of Pennsylvania that appears on a map but barely any information on the internet. They have a more than just peculiar connection with this house, one that they can't even begin to fathom. The house is filled with generation-old secrets, startling and uncanny mysteries related to the family's past, a well in the backyard filled with strangled, skeletal cats. And that's just the beginning. Other more mutant-like secrets eventually unfold as The Weavers learn that a far more terrible thing await them if they continue to stay in their new abode. ]]>

    <![CDATA[Simply put, the book is about a family, The Weavers, who inherit a house in a part of Pennsylvania that appears on a map but barely any information on the internet. They have a more than just peculiar connection with this house, one that they can't even begin to fathom. The house is filled with generation-old secrets, startling and uncanny mysteries related to the family's past, a well in the backyard filled with strangled, skeletal cats. And that's just the beginning. Other more mutant-like secrets eventually unfold as The Weavers learn that a far more terrible thing await them if they continue to stay in their new abode. ]]>

    <![CDATA[Simply put, the book is about a family, The Weavers, who inherit a house in a part of Pennsylvania that appears on a map but barely any information on the internet. They have a more than just peculiar connection with this house, one that they can't even begin to fathom. The house is filled with generation-old secrets, startling and uncanny mysteries related to the family's past, a well in the backyard filled with strangled, skeletal cats. And that's just the beginning. Other more mutant-like secrets eventually unfold as The Weavers learn that a far more terrible thing await them if they continue to stay in their new abode. ]]>
