A Ghost Dusters Mystery
review 1: I've waited a long time to find this book, #3 of a series, and it was worth the wait. Sadie's business is to clean up the sites of violent or untended deaths once they've been released by the police. Unfortunately, Sadie also can see, talk to, and interact with the ghosts who have been left behind and are bewildered by what happened to them. Her job is to "cross them over" but most don't want to go until a last piece of unfinished business is tended to. This time Sadie's job is to clean out the home of a hoarder where she finds a very angry and mean ghost. The story is complicated by problems in Sadie's personal life- by the death of her father, a problem with her live-in boyfriend, and the hoarder's house becoming a scene of investigation. This series is probably not for ... morethose who have stomachs a bit on the weak side because the scenes are sometimes gruesomely described but the writing is great and the mysteries very good.
review 2: Even though this is a urban fantasy book most of this story was dedicated to Sadie and Zack's relationship. Zack is back on drugs because of his broken foot, but is later discovered he has been taking it for the last couple of months unbeknown to Sadie. Zack moves out of Sadie's house and moves in with Paula, his ex-girlfriend. Throughout the book it's implied that Paula is using Zack's vicodin abuse to lure him back. It was never proven. The whole mummified baby, the hoarder house with the angry ghost was a great mystery. Sadie should not had forgiven Zack. He has a pattern as a cheater. less
