"Waiting on" Wednesday - Third Grave Dead Ahead

Hosted by Breaking The Spine, this section will feature future upcoming releases that I personally am excited about. These will generally be coming up later in the year. Let me know what you're looking forward to, or even what you're writing, and maybe I'll feature it here as well.

Darynda Jones - Third Grave Dead Ahead
(Charley Davidson #3)


• Pub. Date: January 2012
• Publisher: Macmillan Audio
• Format: Compact Disc

Charley Davidson—grim reaper extraordinaire, private investigator . . . meh—is practicing her profession under the influence, caffeine and copious amounts of it, due to an extreme desire to induce insomnia. Every time she closes her eyes, Reyes Farrow, the part-human, part-supermodel son of Satan, is there. Only thing is, he’s a tad peeved. She did bind for all eternity, so it’s hard blame him. But 13 days without a wink is bound to bring out the crazy in a girl. So, when a man hires her to find his wife, Charley accepts the job with one goal in mind: Put the man behind bars, and not the wet kind. She can sense the guilt waft off him and vows to find the woman’s body and prove he’s a murderer.

In the meantime, Reyes is back in prison and none too happy about it . . . so Charley thinks, until she is carjacked by the dark-haired rake, who swears the very man he went to prison for killing is not only alive, but close by. And he wants Charley to find him.

While a visit to her old friend Rocket sheds no light on Reyes’s situation, Charley finds out the man’s wife is still alive and time is running out. Finding her before she dies would be a miracle, but she has to try. Together with the help of a fashion-impaired receptionist named Cookie, Charley sets out to bring the bad guys to justice. She just hopes Reyes is not one of them. And that she’s not hallucinating from her self-induced bout with insomnia.

I hope Lorelei King reads this one too! I would imagine she will. She's amazing and she's read the other two. Plus, it's Macmillan. They sent me Second Grave so hopefully I can get my hands on this one early! :o) I love Charley and her friend Cookie. They're very Stephanie Plum-like. Hilarious and very fun, these reads are great if you like paranormal mystery with laughs and romance. Check it out!

Happy Wednesday!!

  9. I have the audio of the first two books in this series and I have to say I really enjoyed them both. They were both wickedly funny and exciting, I'm sure the next one will be equally entertaining. Great choice!
