Description
Southern mystery writer Charlaine Harris is the New York Times bestselling author of Grave Sight and the Sookie Stackhouse series. Supernatural curiosities, finely wrought characters, and unpredictable plotting combine in this exciting whodunit. Twenty-something Harper Connelly has a gift. After being struck by lightning as a child, she discovered an eerie ability to locate the deceased. In Memphis, skeptical Professor Nunley wants her to demonstrate that skill at an ancient cemetery. There Harper stands atop a grave and says there are two bodies entombed: one centuries old, but the other, a young girl named Tabitha. Her assertion holds water. Tabitha has been missing for two years—and now the police are suspicious of Harper. So with her loyal stepbrother Tolliver, Harper begins to amass clues that will solve the case. Harris' expert pacing builds the suspense as two young sleuths navigate a string of strange occurrences that has others scratching their heads.

        August 14, 2006
        At the start of Harris's winning second supernatural caper to feature Harper Connelly (after 2005's Grave Sight
        ), a skeptical anthropology professor, Clyde Nunley, tests Harper's gift of clairvoyance in a historic Memphis cemetery, where Harper correctly senses a fresh corpse in the wrong grave. Strangely, the body turns out to be a missing 12-year-old girl, Tabitha Morgenstern, whom Harper failed to locate in Nashville on a case two years earlier. The hotel suite of Harper and her manager and stepbrother, Tolliver Lang, both of whom fall under suspicion, becomes a magnet for a medley of amusing characters, including Memphis cops, Tabitha's assorted relatives and a drunken Clyde Nunley, who, shortly after accusing Harper of fraud, is found dead in the same grave as Tabitha. Peppered with the author's trademark deadpan wit, this book should help make Harper and Tolliver as popular as Sookie Stackhouse, the heroine of Harris's vampire mystery series (Definitely Dead
        , etc.). Author tour.

      • content: Lightning strikes have different effects on people, and on Harper Connelly the effect is an ability to find corpses and understand how they were killed. She is invited to explore a cemetery by a Memphis college professor who believes everything related to the paranormal is a fraud. As she makes her way through the cemetery, she comes across a surprise--the body of Tabitha, a young girl she was hired to find 18 months earlier when the girl disappeared in Nashville. Alyssa Bresnahan gives a low-key performance that makes Harper a believable and sensitive character. Bresnahan's steady intensity brings the suspense to the fore without overstatement. J.E.M.
