This well-done audiobook is the fourth entry in Jones's paranormal romance series featuring Albuquerque, NM, private detective Charlotte "Charley" Davidson. Secretly the grim reaper, Davidson employs her ability to see dead people to her professional advantage. While pursuing her career and navigating her unusual relationships, she aids a woman whose life is in imminent danger. All characters, paranormal and otherwise, are well drawn, and the witty narrative deftly employs sarcasm, implication, and understatement. Narrator Lorelei King is excellent as the voice of Charley and equally adept at portraying all the characters.
VERDICT Recommended for those who have enjoyed the previous series entries and those looking for other series à la "Sookie Stackhouse" or "Stephanie Plum."
