A nice homage to the seven deadly sins
I loves how the author pulled in the seven deadly sins into the story. I love Jack and Jay together. I like the little twist that the author added to the story, not what I expected. But as usual this terrific team wrapped it all up! Can’t wait for the next book!

In this eighth book of the series, it seems as if Jaye and Jack might finally have a chance at happiness, and be able to move on to the next step of their life together. However, as is always the case with this twosome, going to a mortuary convention could not just be as simple as going to a convention. First they are trapped in a tropical storm, and then there seems to be murder everywhere that they turn not to mention poor Sheldon has his whole life thrown in upheaval. Watching these two put together all the pieces and yet another mystery will bring you more of what you’ve come to love about them and about this series.

JJ Graves story continues. She can’t even attend a mortician conference without a murder following her and Jack.

Another great story from the Graves serious. Some parts are a bit darker than other series I read, but I enjoy them none the less! Definitely a great read amongst crazy summer storms.

Enjoyed book 8 in this series. With the story arc regarding Jaye’s father resolved in book 7 there are new fish to fry, or Murders to solve.
Jaye and Jack are on an island off the coast of SC at a mortician’s conference. They are stranded there by a storm and a body turns up. The one police officer on the island is not much of a cop, nor interested in solving a murder so Jack and Jaye are pressed into action. And the the bodies keep coming.
The mystery is intriguing and the clues keep you guessing. There are some good red herrings. It was an entertaining read and I’m going to move on to book 9 right now.

Definitely my favorite of the series. Nice to see how far Jack and Jaye have come as individuals and a married, professional couple.
Full review to come.

I really enjoyed this entry in the series. The serious situation with her parents has been resolved. For the first time, Jack and Jaye have stress free time together. I love both characters. As always, the the dialog is great. Jack and Jaye are at a mortuary convention on an island off the coast of South Carolina. There is a storm and no one can come on or go off the island. There is a murder. Since the island is isolated by the storm, the Savannah police allow Sheriff Jack Lawson to handle the investigation along with his wife, J.J. Graves. Soon the bodies are piling up. The murder mystery was well done and interesting (and a little gross). We got a small does of Ben Carver who I really enjoy. I think what I like most about this book was the Jack and Jaye were on page together throughout the book. I love that Jack is the one thinking about their future and is more introspective. He is also an alpha with confidence who clearly loves Jaye and respects her. Love this series.
