It's on Kindle for £5.03 which is an oddly specific price...

Can I ask a question to you all. Have you heard of the word ossuary in fiction books especially in books originally written in English. In 2 books recently I've seen it (France and Germany) just wondered if you've come across it before in English novels |

Little Nemo
Not sure I've seen it recently but does it mean somewhere bones are stored?

I believe I first read the word in the Doom Patrol comic in the late 80s. There's also the film The Ossuary by Jan Svankmajer. Can't say I've seen it used recently in a book I've read.

@Little Nemo yes it is. Though the other book was set in a cemetery so no surprise there Thanks quimby |

Feels like a word you’d find in CJ Samson or Colin Dexter.
