About this listen
When Harper and Tolliver are hired to find a missing grandson, they learn that several teenage boys have disappeared from Doraville. Harper soon finds the eight bodies buried in the half-frozen ground, but as she becomes part of the investigation, she learns more than she cares to about the dark mysteries and long-hidden secrets of Doraville: knowledge that could make her the next victim to end up in an ice-cold grave.

The main character but also the old Psychic ladyWas this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Although there are a lot of books which include these topics, murder, serial killers, police in small towns and the other supernatural stuff. I don't believe there are so many that combine these elements in such a believable and down to earth way. The characters, situations and topics, although extreme are convincing.Alyssa Bresnahan reads in an understated, clear, rhythmic voice that never jars or distracts from the story. Great combination
gripping

It's a pity that Harper and Tolliver's story has to be placed alongside the story. I think it takes away something from them, that kinda feels inappropriate to discuss while their story develops.
By no means miss this book, just prepare yourself for some uncomfortable reading.
A great "Grave" story, just a horrible subject

The stories are dark and I also like that Harper and Tolliver are not perfect people, they are sometimes selfish, blunt and multi dimensional. This one really sticks with your because of its visuals and is probably the best in the series.
I really like this series. where is book 1?

The paranormal element of the story is actually very subtle because the heroines abilities follow the extremely narrow focus of being able to locate bodies in the nearby area and give cause of death. This ability is exploited to its full potential by herself and her stepbrother/manager to provide a living for themselves but causes constant difficulties, particularly with law enforcement who either disbelieve, or do not understand the limitations of Harper's talents.
I was talking with a taxi driver the other day and he complained that they never wrote stories about ordinary people in the movies, they're all high-flying, rich and beautiful. I've noticed that unfortunately this is often the case with paranormal fiction and particularly that aimed at women. Charlaine Harris' novels break through all of this. The hero and heroine come from a mostly trailer park background and deal with a multitude of people, in this case a struggling poorer community, with a few wealthier members who have managed to collectively raise funds for Harper's services and the territorial and conflicted local sheriff.
The characterization in these novels is amazing. You'll end up liking a multitude of people despite their flaws and prejudices. While Harper and her brother have an extremely practical approach to her abilities, which often leads them to be viewed as parasites by others trying to help on the case.
I've already bought all three novels in The Harper Connolly series available on Audible UK. You do need to read them in order to avoid spoilers but although the first book in the series is not available, reading it is not necessary to enjoy the rest. The narration while not quite five star is still really good. I will defiantly be listening to this series again and would really recommend it.
I was surprised just how much I enjoyed this.
