Tristan Everett was finally getting used to the
strangeness that was his life. Being able to see the dead and helping
them solve their unfinished business and cross into the light wasn’t so
bad after all, especially when he was accompanied by his best friend,
dead drag queen Dusty Le Frey. His boyfriend, sexy Scotland Yard
detective Danny Hayes, now knew the truth about Tristan’s “gift,” and
they were about to move in together officially.
Life was good.
That
is until Death—honest to god, Death (aka The Grim Reaper)—pitches up in
Tristan’s kitchen with an unusual stop Dusty’s ghostly hookup Bruce
from crossing into the light, which may result in dire consequences.
Determined
to do the exact opposite, Tristan and Danny assemble their own ragtag
gang of one prickly witch, one snarky psychic private investigator, one
living drag queen with an affinity for feathers, and one dead one with
an affinity for a deceased rugby player in tiny shorts. Together they
must solve a forty-year old cold case, while juggling a dose of the flu,
a broken leg, a supernatural storm, and an immortal death deity with
the looks and temperament of a sexy but grouchy CEO.
Seriously… what could possibly go wrong?
ARC received via GRR for an honest review
I stumbled across the Dead Serious series last year whilst I was on an overseas holiday, and listened to the first book on audio.
And here we are at book 3, and the seried just keeps getting better and better.
Tristan, Danny and their new Scooby gang have now banded together to solve a cold case - and save the world!
Tristan and Danny are getting to that next stage in their relationship, after the I love yous but still in that honeymoon period. They are more comfortable and more open with each other - how Danny hasn't run a mile, how well he takes what happens that he can't see, well, that just makes me love him more.
I also kinda have a bit of a crush on a Reaper hahaha.
I can not wait for more in this series.
