A skull's grin is eternal...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe year is 1635.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSister Ursula, a young nun fleeing the ruins of her convent, and Elsebeth, a sharp-witted peasant, escape a band of marauding soldiers and disappear into the Bavarian forest. War scorches the land, and no one survives it alone. Amid the devastation, they find something in the arms of a dying man- the gilded skull of a saint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is said that if you reunite the saint's skull with her body, a wish will be granted. Desperate for salvation, and each with secret desires of their own, Ursula and Elsebeth follow a ragged map across the blighted countryside. But darkness follows them. A necromancer, drawn to the relic's power. The saint herself, whispering at night. And as the lines between blessing and curse blur, the women must face a harrowing truth- the magic they seek comes at a cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the journey's end, they'll face an impossible choice-one that could tear apart everything they know... or bind them to each other forever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\"Decadently atmospheric and deeply unsettling, Bone of My Bone delivers a deliciously disturbing tale about survival and the choices we're forced to make along the way.
