Sometimes being the grim reaper really is that. Grim. And since Charley’s last case went so awry, she has taken a couple months off to wallow in the wonders of self-pity. But when a woman shows up on her doorstep convinced someone is trying to kill her, Charley has to force herself to rise above. Or at least get dressed. She quickly realizes something is amiss when everyone the woman knows swears she’s insane. The more they refute the woman’s story, the more Charley believes it.My thoughts:
Another great installment in audio! This is a series I've enjoyed in audio and will continue to do so in this format. I'm so addicted!! :D
In this book we find our heroine with some PTSD with a side betrayal from her father. She ends up finding some interesting ways of coping with it. Having no other choice but to go out and find some way to feed herself and Cookie (or at least one good cuppa coffee!) and stay away from late night tv infomercials she stumbles upon a case that will at least bring her out of hiding. She also tracks down Reyes and finds more than she bargained. She also finds some answers to a few of her burning questions! Oh and let me just say, I LOVE the way Reyes helps Charley with her PTSD. What a great therapist.
I don't want to spend too much time on the review. I'm just afraid I'll give away too much. Let me just say that this one is as good as the others, Reyes is so *sigh* MINE *glares at everyone in the room* and Cookie even gave me a few tears toward the end. All I can say is if I can't be friends with Charley, then I want to be friends with Cookie! Love these characters and trust me... if you haven't yet... this is a series that is NOT to be missed. Also, be warned... you will want to start naming everything. I really should think of a name for my computer. Any suggestions?
I give this book 4 1/2 stars and can't wait to put on the next book in this series... on audio! :D
I'm binge-reading this series SOON!
ReplyDeleteSweet! Enjoy!
DeleteLove the sound of Reyes and how he helps Charley.
ReplyDeleteLOL! You have no idea... :D
DeleteHa! Looks like we have the same idea! I'm listening to Fifth Grave right now. LOVE Lorelei King & Charley! They are such a fantastic team. And, then yes of course there's Reyes... :D

I hate that I haven't been able to listen to it this week, but I hope to change that this weekend.
DeleteI have 5 coming up...soonish
ReplyDeleteI'm in the middle of 5. :)
DeleteOh dear, I already do name everything. Pooter is the computer, Madge is my electric wheelchair and I won't begin to bore you with the names of the house plants but there's Yak, Son of Yak, Mickey jnr and Wor Willie to name but a few.
ReplyDeleteI did name several things before the book, but I swear I've named several more. :D
DeleteI've heard this is great in audio. I've only read the first book, but I really need to continue the series!
ReplyDeleteYES! It is so good in audio!
DeleteI'm just going to have to give in and listen to these on audio. You're the fourth person that has said how awesome it is. I've already read and re-read the series but I love it so much that I wouldn't mind listening to it too ;-)
ReplyDeleteOh give in. You won't regret it.
DeleteI so enjoy it on audio!!
ReplyDeleteThat one cracks me up every time. Her names of those are classic!
ReplyDeleteI read the first book but for some reason I thought there was a love triangle so I quit. I was team Reyes right away and didn't' want to read anything other than that! lol
ReplyDeleteI love this series. I really do. It's my absolute favorite.
ReplyDeleteI love this series..so hard. I plan to pick up the audio versions eventually. Wonderful review!
ReplyDeleteI really want to read these!! I need to get the first book sometime soon. it sounds like a great series to hear on audio too.
ReplyDeleteYou make this series sound so fun! :-) I need to catch up on audio, I think I'd really enjoy it. And a name for your comp...hmm....Hal? Skynet? Iko? I think something AI-ish. Fab review!
ReplyDeleteoh yeah! I just love love love this series, so I'm really happy you enjoyed this one. I can't wait for the next one.
ReplyDeleteI bet the audio of these books is a riot. I love this series. Haha - you'll be even more possessive of Reyes after the next book. :D
ReplyDeleteGreat review Melissa, thank you! I hope to read this one soon.
ReplyDeleteI just couldn't get into the first book in this series, but I think I need to try these on audio instead as it really seems like I'm missing out. Fantastic review, Melissa!(:
ReplyDeleteThis is another series I so need to start. I did however pick up her YA series and need to start on that one as well.
ReplyDeleteOoo, I wish audio wasn't so expensive. I so need to get to these books!
