A review by rmarcin
In Her Bones by Kate Moretti
3.0
I felt that this book was a bit jumbled, a bit disjointed. In fact, in one place, at least one paragraph was missing! (That could be because I read this on a Kindle, and perhaps the digital edition was missing the paragraph???)
The story is a psychological thriller about the daughter of a serial killer. The daughter, Edie Beckett, is worried that she will turn out like her mother. She is obsessed with following the lives of the people who were left behind after Lilith killed their family member.
The book didn't really grab and hold my attention like some other psychological thrillers. I had to suspend disbelief on some of the story, especially how Edie was able to break into people's homes, and fly under the radar for so long, especially when a cop was watching for her. I had a suspect for a while on the most recent murder, but there was not enough to convince me of my hunch.
There were several characters in the story that seemed tangential, but actually paid a large part in the story. I don't know if the novel had enough meat behind those characters to make their story line believable as part of the larger narrative.
