Blood Bones by N.J. Bayley

The story of two women, a hundred years apart, united by soul-destroying guilt.
2020:
An antique skeleton in a museum is DNA tested, revealing that every single one of its 206 bones has come from a different person. This macabre story attracts the interest of a journalist, Claire, whose own shadowed past leads to an obsession to know more.
1925:
As a child Kathryn watched her little brother lose a finger in a mangle. She saved that bone, guilty that she’d allowed him to come to harm. But in the First World War, faced with an unstoppable sea of death, she begins to collect more and more bones. By the end of the war she has almost enough for an entire skeleton, but determined to complete it she goes on the hunt for the final bones.
