Bones — David Osborn

Artist Andretta Salinger awakens one day in an old stone country house she's bought from a family ownership of six generations to find she's been living for two years with the bones of someone murdered and buried in the floor of her cellar. When Andretta finds herself drawn willy-nilly into the small-town police investigation of a homicide committed in 1868, it's into the scandal-ridden lives of the great railroad barons of the day and to identifying the murderer.
