Publisher Description
The next thrilling novel in the Colletti series from acclaimed author Solomon Jones
Just weeks after tracking down a killer known as the Angel of Death, Detective Mike Coletti stands at Mary Smithson’s grave, mourning the woman whose betrayal nearly cost him his life. He’s joined there by Mary’s beautiful half sister, Lenore. Moments later, a gunshot splits the air, placing Coletti on a collision course with the Gravedigger, a killer hell-bent on deciphering the secret of life and death. As bodies drop and tensions mount, clues are plucked from the victims, and one thing is abundantly clear—Lenore is the killer’s ultimate target. But to stop the Gravedigger, Coletti and his partners must go beyond protecting Lenore. They must go to the one place where life and death routinely meet. They must go back to the grave.

"What an excellent book! I loved it! Suspense, intrigue, this book has it all! I enjoyed how the book kept building toward the climatic end, as this genre of books does! I also thought the setting for this story was perfect. Who doesn't love a good cemetary suspense novel???"

" I found this story uninspired. 2 of 10 stars "
— Tim, 3/21/2013 -
" it was too reliant on the first book in the series. It had an interesting hook/premise with the whole E.A. Poe tie in but it never made me care about what happened and had a contrived ending "
— Elyn, 2/11/2013 -

" I loved the first 270 pages. Exciting, intense, suspenseful. The end, however, was quite a disappointment. Hate books like that. "
— Jeanice, 8/12/2012 -
" This was a very good part to after reading The Last Confession. This one as well had me tripping on the ending. Another one where I would have never guessed the ending. "
— Kim, 3/22/2012 -
" I loved it. The story moved quickly. I didn't read the first if the series so the references to it were lost on me. I loved Colletti. He is the embodiment if the seasoned detective. I am going to get the others in the series to catch up. "
— Angela, 3/14/2012 -
" Interesting whodunit with an Edgar Allen Poe theme. Whacky supernatural ending that I didn't see coming. Not sure if I bought it, but a good quick read. "
— Andrea, 2/27/2012 -
" Couldn't get past the first chapter. Too full of cliches, and poor writing overall. Heard an interview with the author, but this really disappointed me. "
— Dan, 2/1/2012 -
" I enjoyed this book. In the beginning I thought that this book was a murder/mystery. It turns out that this was part paranormal also. This was really a surprise ending. "
