*Starred Review* Charley Davidson�s police-officer father and uncle began consulting her for help in solving murders when she was five years old. Charley has a special gift�she sees and talks to the victims. Her job is to point the recently departed to the light, but those who have been murdered want her to make sure their killers are caught. Charley�s latest clients-from-beyondare three personable lawyers, all murdered by the same person at nearly the same time. When she�s not helping ghosts with the ultimate closure, Charley is trying to figure out who her sizzling-hot dream lover is. The manuscript for this sassy, sarcastic, sexy novel won the Romance Writers of America�s Golden Heart for Best Paranormal Romance. Now Jones� wickedly witty debut will delight aficionados of such humorous paranormals as Casey Daniels� Pepper Martin Mysteries (Don of the Dead, 2006; The Chick and the Dead, 2007; Tombs of Endearment, 2007) and Dakota Cassidy�s Accidental Friends series (The Accidental Werewolf, 2008; Accidentally Dead, 2008; The Accidental Human, 2009). Librarians will want to be on the lookout for the next book in Jones� series, Second Grave on the Left (2011). --Shelley Mosley --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

“King’s a perfect choice for portraying Charley Davidson, an Albuquerque P.I. and grim reaper responsible for leading the dead to the other side…Jones’s book will leave romance, chick-lit, humor, and mystery lovers waiting for Charley’s second adventure.” – AudioFile Magazine

“… I found it very convenient in this format because I wanted to find out where this original and humorous tale was going and was literally able to take it with me and continue, even while driving…readers who like a bit of Chick lit with their Paranormal Romance will find First Grave on the Right, right down their alley.” – Bookin’ with Bingo

A deliciously involving saga blending wit, suspense, and heart, First Grave on the Right is enthusiastically recommended.” – The Midwest Book Review
