An Ice Cold Grave submitted by ErinDurrett on October 20, 2009, 7:16pm In this third novel in the Harper Connelly series, Harper and Tolliver get an assignment in North Carolina trying to find the bodies of a half dozen young men considered to be "runaway" age. After searching the final disappearance site, Harper gets a reading and discovers a mass grave sight behind an old dilapidated house. The cause of death for the victims was so traumatizing that at first, Harper finds it difficult relaying the cause of death of the boys. Then on their first attempt out of town, Harper gets hit over the head and sentenced to a few days recuperation in the local hospital. Even though looking for more bodies is the last think Harper wants to do, the local authorities and State Bureau of Investigation agents demand that she stay in town to help with their investigation. Harper's friends Manfred and Xylda Bernardo reprise their roles and add unwanted media attention on the town and the murder investigations. Also, Harper and Tollivers relationship escalate to a new level. My complaint from the first two novels holds true here: the mystery wasn't very difficult to solve, but the increasing terror of the crime I felt actually made the book more interesting.

Fun with a psychic solving mysteries submitted by Jen Chapin-Smith on July 16, 2013, 10:32pm The mystery-solving prowess of Harper Connelly continues in this third book in the series about a psychic detective and her former-stepbrother-turned-business-partner Tolliver.

Harper was struck by lightening many years ago and, as a result, has the psychic ability to find corpses and know how they died. She solves numerous murders as a result with the help of her former step-brother Tolliver.

This book does not contain vampire, werewolves, fairies or any other supernatural creatures besides the psychic herself. If you are looking for more of the Sookie Stackhouse books but with different characters, this one will disappoint you. If you are able to keep an open mind, though, you'll likely enjoy this one.
