In the seventh book of the Charley Davidson series, Charley has another case on her hands involving several suicide notes and missing persons, as well as hellhounds chasing after her all while she is pregnant and giving up caffeine.
Much like the rest of the series, there's plenty of humor and snark to keep readers entertained and happy. As author, Darynda Jones further adds more storylines to the overall plot arc, readers become more and more submerged into the action-packed life of Charley Davidson.
Her fiancΓ©, Reyes Farrow takes on a slightly more sober tone in some scenes of this book where we see more of his vulnerabilities. I liked this because Charley is always so confident or carefree that its nice to have someone that balances it out a little bit and can be a little more serious.
Jones continues to build towards that exciting moment that readers are all waiting for. Charley matures in her powers while we get more understanding of the prophecy concerning her life and the people around her. Furthermore, a little more insight about her heritage makes this book one that you do not want to miss. SEVENTH GRAVE AND NO BODY is Charley at her finest!
Lead me not into temptation.
Follow me instead! I know a shortcut!

Twelve. Twelve of the deadliest beasts ever forged in the
fires of hell have escaped onto our plane, and they want
nothing more than to rip out Charley Davidsonβs jugular
and
serve her body to Satan for dinner. So thereβs that. But
Charley has more on her plate than a mob of testy
hellhounds. For one thing, her father has disappeared, and
as she retraces his last steps she learns he was
conducting
an investigation of his own, one that has Charley
questioning everything sheβs ever known about him. Add to
that an ex-BFF who is haunting her night and day, a rash
of
suicides that has authorities baffled, and a drop-dead
sexy
fiancΓ© who has attracted the attentions of a local
celebrity, and Charley is not having the best week of her
life. But all of that barely scratches the surface of her
problems. Recent developments have forced her to become a
responsible adult. To conquer such a monumental task,
sheβs
decided to start small. Really small. She gets a pet. But
how can she save the world against the forces of evil when
she canβt even keep a goldfish alive?
A tad north of hell, a hop, skip, and a jump past the
realm
of eternity, is a little place called Earth, and Charley
Davidson, grim reaper extraordinaire, is determined to do
everything in her power to protect it.
Weβre doomed.
