Overview
"When eleven-year-old Max, a brilliant boy with serious physical handicaps, and his best friend, Tucker, drag a bone out of the Lindenwood Forest, they unearth a twenty- year-old crime and set off a chain of events that threaten their lives. In their often- swashbuckling misadventures, they are joined by Max's cousin, Isabella, a Black teen from Detroit who's hiding secrets of her own, and Max's uncle, Jordan, charismatic ringleader for the family circus. Complicating matters, the body of an old man named Otis Sanderson has gone missing from the embalming room of the funeral home and mortuary Max calls home. To survive, this ragtag group employ their various talents and learn to work together. The Bone Maker is a novel filled with darkness, humor, and heart that blends elements of magical realism, thrillers, and coming of age dramas." -- Abstract
