Publisher Description
After a month spent recovering from a vicious fight with a sorcerer, grave witch Alex Craft is ready to get back to solving murders by raising the dead. With her love life in turmoil thanks to the disappearance of Fae Investigation Bureau agent Falin Andrews and a shocking "L" word confession from Death himself, Alex is eager for the distractions of work. But her new case turns out to be a deadly challenge.
The police hire Alex to consult on a particularly strange investigation in the nature preserve south of Nekros City. The strange part: There are no corpses, only fragments of them. A serial killer is potentially on the loose, and Alex has no way to raise a shade without a body, so she'll have to rely on the magic of others to find leads. But as she begins investigating, a creature born of the darkest magic comes after her. Someone very powerful wants to make sure the only thing she finds is a dead end—her own.

"I really enjoyed this book. For me, it was better than Grave Witch. the characters were more fleshed out, and the story moved even faster. It didn't hurt that it really delved into the world of the Fae, a subject that tends to have intrinsic appeal for me. My one peeve was the weak love triangle in the book. (view spoiler)[ I just don't find "Death" an interesting character, and it's hard to accept him as a real rival for Alex's affections. Sure, Falin is bound to his queen, but he's a real character. Death doesn't do enough to have any sympathy from me. Unless he gets a lot more depth in future books, I will be really annoyed if he continues to be portrayed as a love interest (hide spoiler)]."

" Oh this book. I liked it, not as much as the first in the series, but enough. Although I've come to the conclusion that I'm beginnging to not care for the world of faerie (and not, not because of this book, it's just that it finally got to me while reading this). Faerie just frustrates me, so I guess that means it's not for me, so I'll stay away from the food and dances. I still really enjoyed Alex, and am glad we got to see more of her friends and Death. I'm on the fence about how I feel towards Falin, but as of now, he's not too bad. If there is a third in the series, I'm sure I'll pick up a copy. "

" Loved it next one now "

" Somehow, Alex always ends up in the middle of the storm even if she tries not to. More of her fae-blood is revealed this time and somehow, a fae-queen is vexed at Alex. This tug-of-emotion between Death and Falin is getting very ineteresting. When's is the next book coming?? "
