Her father, Sir Frank Churcher, is regarded as a cult figure by many. Fifty years ago he wrote \u003ci\u003eThe Golden Bones\u003c\/i\u003e. Part picture book, part treasure hunt, it was a fairy story about Elinore, a murdered woman whose skeleton was scattered all over England. Clues and puzzles in the pages of \u003ci\u003eThe\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eGolden Bones\u003c\/i\u003e led readers to seven sites where jewels were buried - gold and precious stones, each a different part of a skeleton. One by one, the tiny golden bones were dug up until only Elinore's pelvis remained hidden. The book was a sensation. A community of treasure hunters called the Bonehunters formed, in frenzied competition, obsessed to a dangerous degree. People sold their homes to travel to England and search for Elinore. Marriages broke down as the quest consumed people. A man died. The book made Frank a rich man. And it ruined Nell's life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut Sir Frank has reunited the Churchers for a very particular reason. The book is being reissued, along with a new treasure hunt and a documentary crew are charting the anniversary. Nell is appalled, and fearful. During the filming, Frank finally reveals the whereabouts of the missing golden bone. And then all hell breaks loose.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrom the bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eHe Said\/She Said\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eWatch Her Fall\u003c\/i\u003e, this is a taut, mesmerising novel about a daughter haunted by her father's legacy . . .\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026gt;","brand":"Oxfordbookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44787603472563,"sku":"9781473680890","price":920.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/4164\/4723\/files\/blk_imp_17477411349781473680890.jpg?v=1762822115","url":"https:\/\/oxfordbookstore.com\/products\/the-skeleton-key-5093","provider":"Oxfordbookstore ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
