How far will you go to open The Bone Door? A darkly atmospheric and unsettling novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Voyage of The Damned

When Hop awakens in an ancient labyrinth, he has no memory of his life or how, indeed, he got here. He does not recognise the mysterious girl trapped with him. And he certainly cannot identify the shadowy figure stalking him, whispering terrible things . . . But there is one thing he is certain of. He must escape. The only way out of the labyrinth is through The Bone Door. But it lies behind a series of locked doors hidden across an array of realms. As Hop travels deeper into the maze, he discovers that he and his companions may be more connected to the place and its horrors than he could ever imagine.

Reviews for The Bone Door

The Bone Door is epic, ambitious, and outrageously creative, with all the loveable characters, layered worldbuilding and vivid imagery that make White such a force to be reckoned with. There is darkness and brutality in this world, but also lightness, humour, and heart-warming friendships. With its wonderful found-family cast of misfits that you can’t help but root for, this book is the perfect balance of magic, mythology, and mystery * Keshe Chow, Sunday Times Bestselling Author of The Girl With No Reflection * Darkly delightful and endlessly imaginative, The Bone Door features an instantly lovable cast of amnesic oddballs trapped into a labyrinthine world. Frances White is at the top of her game yet again with this deft and twisty tale * Jules Arbeaux, Author of Lord of the Empty Isles * In an achingly heartwarming story that is equal parts hilarious and horrifying, White delivers unforgettable characters and a wildly imaginative plot that asks readers to consider what it means to continue to hope, even in the face of unfathomable odds * Laura R. Samotin, author of The Sins On Their Bones * The Bone Door is a unique, emotional read that tackles trauma, empathy, human cruelty, and grief, but that also makes you laugh and appreciate the beauty of love and of being alive. Don’t miss it! * Emma Sterner-Radley, author of Snowblooded * The Bone Door is a story that asks profound questions about the nature of evil, the possibility of redemption, and the resilience of the human spirit. The human heart is a labyrinth—not unlike the one her characters navigate—containing both wonders and horrors at every turn, and in this bold new novel, Frances White is not afraid to open every door of the human experience. * Sunyi Dean, author of The Book Eaters *
