Bone China, or Letters Not about Love is an unconventional murder mystery that blends suspense with lyrical storytelling. Its protagonist Mila Freeman is recovering from a broken leg when she receives the news that her old friend—an artist and human rights activist—has been found dead under suspicious circumstances. The death is officially ruled a suicide, but the truth lingers unresolved, seeping into Mila’s world despite her friends’ vow to avoid the subject.What unfolds is a witty and haunting meditation on exile, nostalgia, fractured bodies, and lost loves. Through digressive folktales, etymologies, and a chorus of emails woven into the narrative, Bone China explores the tension between silence and revelation, grief and resilience, intimacy and estrangement.A genre-defying novel, it invites readers into a mystery that is as much about memory and identity as it is about uncovering a death. With sharp wit and emotional depth, Bone China is perfect for readers who crave literary fiction that pushes boundaries while keeping them enthralled by the puzzle at its core.
