Second Grave on the Left by Darynda Jones 307 pages
In the sequel to First Grave on the Right, life is complicated for Charley Davidson. She’s a private investigator with a side job as the grim reaper. Reyes Farrow, the guy she’s in love with, is an escaped felon and the son of Satan. He’s hiding from demonic forces who want to use his power—and he’s also hiding from Charley.
Jones balances paranormal, romance, and mystery fiction. The humor occasionally falls flat for me—it’s just a little too quippy, in a way that works better on the screen than it does on the page—but on the whole it’s a fun read.
