Mary Logue
Then the quiet was broken. The baby reached up a hand and jerked at the tablecloth. A spoon hit her on the head, and she started to cry. Bertha Schuler stuck her head out the door and called that dinner was ready. The clock in the hallway struck the half hour. And the first shot was fired.

Bone Harvest by Mary Logue is a bit more of a thriller than I usually read...it's also American and more recent. But I'm very glad that the Follow That Blurb Reading Challenge led me to it. It is a very absorbing read--quick-paced and well-written.
The story takes us back and forth between modern-day Wisconsin and the same town 50 years ago. In that small-town half a century ago, an entire family was murdered in a remote farmhouse. The town rocked from the impact of the horrible deed and eventual...more

Bone Harvest, by Mary Logue, B-plus. Purchased from audio bookstand, produced by Brilliance Audio.
Mary Logue’s books are about small town Wisconsin on the Minnesota border. And this is another one about Clare, who is a deputy sheriff and the office investigator for the sheriff’s office. She was a former policewoman in Minneapolis. She lives with her young daughter, Meg, and her boy friend who is a local turkey farmer lives nearby. There is discomfort between the two of them because he wants to g...more

Very engaging book in the Claire Watkins series. This one is the most engaging one since the first book in the series. It was very reminiscent of In Cold Blood in that a family who lived on a farm was killed in the 1950s, but this book had a different twist and based on revenge/memory/revealing the truth.
Catchy start and well developed story. New author to me. I will definitely check out other books by her.
I couldn't put this one down! As a bonus to being well written, it was set in Western Wisconsin!

Good mystery fiction by a local author
excellent book, really enjoyed it, couldn't put it down.
I really enjoyed this book.
great series and a local!
I have been reading the entire series of these mystery books. Really fun books about Pepin area & the locals. I like the older books much better than the more recent Maiden Rock book. I would recommend starting at the beginning of the series if you want to get into it.
A 50-year-old unsolved murder of an entire family resurfaces when finger bones are found at the scenes of new murders, fingers that had been severed from the victims of the cold case.
I really enjoyed this book. It was chilling and disturbing everything that a mystery should be. Plus I loved that it had a female Sheriff who solves the mystery.
I adore Mary Logues books. She is a good mystery writer, fast past books - all of her characters are realistice, intellegent and well developed.
great mystery. the story kept me involved. bonus points for taking place in pepin, WI (near where I went to college).
A very interesting "murder mystery" with a very gentle ending -- I liked that.
Good, local author....want to read more by her!
