The International Intrigue Book Group will discuss The Bone Man by Wolf Haas (Melville House, $14.95). Inexplicably, the most popular restaurant in this bucolic corner of Austria is a fried chicken joint. When human bones are found in the bone-grinder pile, the restaurant's manager hires PI Simon Brenner to investigate. Now she's gone missing. The case gets stranger as folks disappear at a disturbing clip and a soccer player's head is discovered in an equipment bag. Eventually Brenner realizes a soccer bribery scandal is probably connected to the bones in the restaurant. Needless to say, he hopes to solve the case without losing any bones himself.
