A Bloom of Bones
Overview
Eli Singer, a rancher and poet in remote Eastern Montana, sees his life overturned when a long-buried corpse (a murder victim from Eli's childhood) erodes out of a hillside on his ranch. "The clay, I suppose, the bentonite, had acted as a sealant, preserving the body." The discovery and subsequent investigation force Eli to turn inward, revisiting the tragic events of his childhood. At the same time, he finds himself drawn out of his self-imposed isolation by Chloe, a visiting literary agent from New York. In the tradition of such classic western writers as Thomas McGuane, James Lee Burke, Ivan Doig and Jim Harrison, A Bloom of Bones is a poignant and moving exploration of family, community, and the echoing ramifications of violence across generations, as well as a genre-subverting literary mystery.
