Sixth Grave on the Edge is part of the Charley Davidson series by Darynda Jones. Few things in life can come between a grim reaper and her coffee, but the sexy, sultry son of Satan is one of them. Now that Reyes Farrow has asked for her hand, Charley Davidson feels it's time to learn more about his past, but Reyes is reluctant to open up. When the official FBI file of his childhood abduction lands in her lap, Charley decides to go behind her mysterious beau’s back and conduct her own investigation. Because what could go wrong?
Unfortunately, another case has fallen into her lap, one with dangerous implications. Some very insistent men want Charley to hunt down a witness who is scheduled to testify against their boss, a major player in the local crime syndicate. If Charley doesn't come up with an address in 48 hours, the people closest to her will start to disappear. Add to that a desperate man in search of the soul he lost in a card game, a dogged mother determined to find the ghost of her son, and a beautiful, young Deaf boy haunted by his new ability to see the departed as clearly as he sees the living, and Charley has her hands full. The fact that Reyes has caught on to her latest venture only adds fuel to the inferno that he is. Good thing for Charley she's used to multi-tasking and always up for a challenge, especially when that challenge comes in the form of Reyes Farrow.
Sixth Grave on the Edge is more of what I expect from the series and the author. I like that new major players keep being introduced, and reoccurring secondary characters keep evolving and growing right along side Charley. I enjoy this series so much, but want you all to discover the twists and turns for yourself. Honestly, I have not been reading the blurbs before moving on to the next book, and am enjoying the mystery of what is happening. I think some of the blurbs give a way more than they should, some details of which are part of the mystery Charley needs to uncover with a great deal of support from her friends. If you have enjoyed the series so far, you will want to keep going. While the series is starting to lose some of its shine for me, I still greatly enjoy the read and am still continuing with my binge reading and grinning through a good portion of it.
