Synopsis

The dead don't always stay dead in Claysville . . . and in the afterlife, Death himself can't be trusted.

Amity Blue has begun to remember strange impossible events, her ex trying to bite her and people vanishing like mist. Everyone in town swears a mountain lion is responsible for the recent deaths, but Amity is sure that there's more to the story.

After a stalker—a dead stalker—appears at the bar where she works, Amity discovers that the dead don't always stay dead in Claysville. Along with the current Graveminder, Rebekkah Barrow, Amity seeks out the enigmatic Mr. D, who seems to be Death himself, only to discover that the centuries-old contract to protect Claysville has been broken.

Caught between life in a cursed town and Death himself, Amity and Rebekkah must find a way to put the dead where they belong—because if the hungry dead keep rising, everyone in town will be lost.

I’d like to give this book at least 4 stars - the story is solid and thoroughly enjoyable .... however, the amount of typos in the Kindle addition made wading through the story and keeping story lines straight difficult at best ...

Goodreads review by Kathy on June 02, 2024

Second in the Graveminder horror urban fantasy series and revolving around the Undertaker and the Graveminder in Claysville. The primary focus is on Amity Barrow with the couple focus on Rebekah Barrow and Byron Montgomery. My Take Fate rules all in Claysville. It’s a tantalizing start, scaring me wit......more

The sequel to The Graveminder wasnt as good and the ending was lacking in that it didnt resolve the main issue of the book which is the breaking of the contract.......more

Very reminiscent of the first Graveminder book, this book picks up almost immediately after the first book ends.......more
