In Cornwall, the past has a way of resurfacing... When the town dog, Jory, leads Penelope Penrose to a long-forgotten corner of the local cemetery, the remains of a young man who vanished years ago are uncovered—and a story the town thought settled begins to unravel. Most people have always believed Nate Jeppersen simply left. Pen isn’t so sure. As she begins to ask questions, old assumptions give way to uneasy silences, fractured friendships, and a truth the town may have chosen not to face. The deeper Pen digs, the clearer it becomes that Nate’s disappearance wasn’t as simple—or as harmless—as everyone once believed. And this time, the answers feel closer to home. Diggin’ Up Bones is a small-town cozy mystery about memory, responsibility, and the cost of silence—where kindness runs deep, secrets linger, and the past refuses to stay buried.
