Grim Reaper Charley Davidson is back in the final installment of Darynda Jones' New York Times bestselling paranormal series, Summoned to Thirteenth Grave.
Charley Davidson, Grim Reaper extraordinaire, is pissed. She's been kicked off the earthly plane for eternity – which is the appropriate amount of time to make a person stark raving mad. But someone's looking out for her, and she's allowed to return after a mere hundred years in exile. Is it too much to hope for that not much has changed? Apparently it is. Bummer.
She's missed her daughter, she's missed Reyes, and Beep, but now that she's back on earth, it's time to put to rest burning questions that need answers. What happened to her mother? How did she really die? Who killed her? And are cupcakes or coffee the best medicine? It all comes to a head in an epic showdown between good and evil in this final smart and hilarious audiobook.
Praise for Lorelei King as Charley Davidson:
"A variety of different character voices makes King's narration lively and entertaining."—AudioFile Magazine on The Dirt on Ninth Grave
"King handles the many revelations and surprise cameos with aplomb. She doesn't skimp on Charley's trademark snarky humor, while still allowing a glimmer of her humanity to shine through. Overall, King provides a well-rounded heroine and a fully immersive listening experience."—AudioFile Magazine on Eighth Grave After Dark

In bestseller Jones’s ebullient 13th and final paranormal mystery featuring PI grim reaper Charlotte “Charley” Davidson (after 2017’s The Trouble with Twelfth Grave), Charley returns to Earth following her banishment by God to find that 100 years have passed for her, though only 10 days have passed on Earth, and the alternate dimension that she and her husband, Reyes Farrow (aka Son of Satan), accidentally opened has covered Albuquerque, N.Mex., and is quickly spreading. Under it are countless demons that humans can’t see, but who are making them sick. While trying to close the dimension, Charlie must also deal with the spirits of those who have died, and put her detective skills to work locating kidnapping victims. Fortunately, none of this interferes with her sexy alone time with Reyes. Series fans will miss Jones’s snarky humor as they say goodbye to Charley, Reyes, and the host of memorable supporting characters they’ve come to love over the years. Agent: Alexandra Machinist, ICM. -
Have a listen to the talented Lorelei King's narration of the latest in Jones's paranormal series. King's rich repertoire includes the grim reaper, a.k.a. Charley Davidson. Charley is given a firm, cultured voice that melds well with the oh-so-husky growl of her husband, Reyes, son of Satan. The two are out to protect their baby's future, and as they engage with secondary characters, King makes them unique. From her Aunt Milly's wavering high-pitched speech to a little boy's childish giggles, each voice is memorable. Emotions run high as Charley and Reyes head towards the battle of their lives. Doing them full justice, King knocks this audiobook out of the park. A.M.G. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine
