Synopsis (Goodreads):
Grim Reaper Charley Davidson is back in the twelfth installment of Darynda Jones' New York Times bestselling paranormal series, The Trouble with Twelfth Grave.Thoughts on The Trouble with Twelfth Grave: Holy what? THINGS ARE HAPPENING. Big things. Feral gods and angry angels and all sorts of THINGS in between. It's amazing! Mostly because of Charley. The woman doesn't give up even when absolutely everything seems hopeless. Even when her smokin' hot husband seems more angry god than smoldering Reyes.
Ever since Reyes Farrow escaped from a hell dimension in which Charley Davidson accidentally trapped him, the son of Satan has been brimstone-bent on destroying the world his heavenly Brother created. His volatile tendencies have put Charley in a bit of a pickle. But that's not the only briny vegetable on her plate. While trying to domesticate the feral being that used to be her husband, she also has to deal with her everyday life of annoying all manner of beings--some corporeal, some not so much--as she struggles to right the wrongs of society. Only this time she's not uncovering a murder. This time she's covering one up.
Add to that her new occupation of keeping a startup PI venture--the indomitable mystery-solving team of Amber Kowalski and Quentin Rutherford--out of trouble and dealing with the Vatican's inquiries into her beloved daughter, and Charley is on the brink of throwing in the towel and becoming a professional shopper. Or possibly a live mannequin. But when someone starts attacking humans who are sensitive to the supernatural world, Charley knows it's time to let loose her razor sharp claws. Then again, her number one suspect is the dark entity she's loved for centuries. So the question becomes: Can she tame the unruly beast before it destroys everything she's worked so hard to protect?
Charley just keeps chugging away.
She fights the good fight between solving crimes and protecting her friends. She goes toe-to-toe with big gods and angels with big egos. Or at least big swords. Either way, she does her thing. Even when her thing puts her in a bad, bad place.
*stares silently at everyone*
Okay. So we get some resolution on the Reyes front. We've seen him in all his incarnations and the truth of what he did to Charley back in the day comes to light. You know, in a roundabout way. There's danger and heartache and a handful of other things that just make you want to squish Charley and Reyes together and tell them it's all going to turn out fine. Probably. Right? It's all going to turn out fine.
Juuuuussssst fine. I hope.
