They wear their scars with pride, while Dory tries desperately to hide her own. No matter what she does to cover her wounds, they can still smell her bleed, and they want indown to the bones.

Dory wakes up in the padded room of a psychiatric hospital with no recollection of how she wound up there. She soon finds out she's been Blue-Paperedinvoluntarily committed. She gets sent to the wrong counseling group and discovers a whole new world of psychiatric patients she'd never known existed. At first, she just thinks they're cutters, all marked by similar scars, but then she finds out those scars are from carving into their own bodies to satisfy their bone-crazy addiction. When they find out Dory's never tapped into her bones, she becomes their target.

Frightened for her life, she desperately tries to prove to the psych. hospital staff she's not delusional about these patients wanting to cut her open and get to her bones. The staff doesn't believe her. They all think she's crazy. She ends up on the run and fighting for her life, trying to avoid getting "dusted" by The Bone Cutters.

"Razor sharp...grabs hold from the get go, and drags the reader through a surreal experience that evokes One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, if written by Clive Barker. A recommended novella."Monster Librarian

"It's actually refreshing to be able to enjoy a book so much that you were miffed when it was over. As the debut novella from Renee S. DeCamillis it's a fantastic beginning to what could prove to be a career to watch." Ginger Nuts of Horror

"I immediately fell in love with Dory, the writing style, the story. This is a terribly heart-wrenching story with a bit of a haunted house/ghost vibe where you're also being chased by a bunch of crazy people who want to devour your bones. I didn't want to put this book down." Kendall Reviews
