Alex Craft, Grave Witch pays a stunningly high price for the working of her gift; each foray into the world of the dead leaves her blind. It is becoming more profound with each use and lasting longer as well. Even her newly discovered Fae blood does not protect her. Unfortunately circumstances aren't allowing her enough time to recover between the times her gift is needed.

After rescuing her former college roommate, Rianna from servitude she hopes to help her by rekindling a dream they shared soon after they met; they have started a new detective agency called Tongues for the Dead. Their first case practically falls into their lap as a body plummets onto a nearby car roof. Their client hopes to prove her husband was murdered, rather than committing suicide. The ghost of the dead man insists his last memory before his death was of sitting in a pub, three days before his plunge.

As Alex and Rianna (and Roy, a persistent ghost) begin to research the circumstances Alex's focus is split between the needs of the case and the pressing need to make a decision regarding which Fae court to align with, or if she should remain independent.

It doesn't help that the two men in her life; Falin, a Fae equivalent of a Fed and Death, a soul collector who is her oldest and closest friend are cut off from any friendly contact with her.

As they unravel the path of the ghost's last three days alive they discover dark tendrils reaching back to other puzzling deaths, how long has this hidden threat existed, and who caused it?

GRAVE MEMORY, the third in the Alex Craft series is as meaty and entertaining as the others. Kalayna Price's world, set 70 years after magic and the other planes were revealed to the world is a strongly built framework for the challenges her characters face. All her characters and their situations are interesting, especially Alex's girl friends and the challenges Alex's situation has brought to their lives. I hope there will be many more books to follow.
