Fresh Fiction Review

EIGHTH GRAVE AFTER DARK
Darynda Jones

Reviewed by Shellie Surles
Posted June 19, 2015

Paranormal

Charlie Davidson is pregnant with her first child. Charlie and her husband, the son of Lucifer have been hiding out for eight months, while hellhounds patrol the borders of their land waiting for the chance to get in and attack.

All Charley wants is safety for her family and since she is suppose to be a God of some kind she doesn't know why she can't just access her powers and make it all better. What Charlie is about to get is more than a surprise and the ending will shock you into wishing the next book was already written.

Darynda Jones has given readers one of the best characters ever with Charley Davidson. She is so funny and such a smart aleck you can't help but laugh at her antics. The descriptions Charley uses to describe not only herself but those around keep a smile on your face even when the story gets shocking.

The ending is a complete surprise but without giving it away I have to say it's necessary to keep the story going. Well done Darynda Jones, EIGHTH GRAVE AFTER DARK is another hit and Charley is the gift that just keeps on giving us laugh after laugh with a great story line.

SUMMARY

With twelve hellhounds after her, pregnant Charley Davidson takes refuge at the only place she thinks they canโ€™t get to her: the grounds of an abandoned convent. But after months of being cooped up there, Charley is ready to pop. Both metaphorically and literally since she is now roughly the size of a beached whale. Fortunately, a new case has captured her attention, one that involves a murder on the very grounds the team has taken shelter upon. A decades-old murder of the newly-vowed nun she keeps seeing in the shadows is almost enough to pull her out of her doldrums. Charleyโ€™s been forbidden to step foot off the sacred grounds. While the angry hellhounds canโ€™t traverse the consecrated soil, they can lurk just beyond its borders. They have the entire team on edge, especially Reyes. And if Charley didnโ€™t know better, she would swear Reyes is getting sick. He grows hotter with every moment that passes, his heat scorching across her skin every time heโ€™s near, but naturally he swears heโ€™s fine. While the team searches for clues on the Twelve, Charley just wants answers and is powerless to get them. But the mass of friends theyโ€™ve accrued helps. They convince her even more that everyone in her recent life has somehow been drawn to her, as though they were a part of a bigger picture all along. But the good feelings donโ€™t last for long because Charley is about to get the surprise of her crazy, mixed-up, supernatural lifeโ€ฆ.
