Publisher's summary

Grave Sight draws listeners into the intriguing world of Harper Connelly, a woman with a unique gift: she can "see" the deceased and how they died.

A teenage girl from a small Ozarks town is missing and feared dead. Hired by local police, Harper locates the girl's body in a nearby forest. But there's more than one corpse in those woods, and the second one raises questions no one wants to ask. Soon Harper and her stepbrother/assistant, Tolliver, are under suspicion. All they want is to get out of town, but they will have to clear their reputations first.

Charlaine Harris writes best-selling mysteries described by Booklist as "gripping and spicy", and praised by the Denver Post for their "goofy charm".

Critic reviews

"A strong debut that will have readers dying for more." (Booklist)
"Harris delivers a knuckle-gnawing tale populated with well-developed, albeit edgy characters. A nifty puzzle toward the end will challenge the most jaded mystery buffs." (Publishers Weekly)

Enjoyable

Interesting characters and a good reader make up for a weak mystery. Maybe listening at 2, twenty-minute sessions a day during commuting gave me too much time to think about it, but the mystery and the culprit were clear from about 1/3 of the way through.

What a great beginning to an excellent series

I confess I am on book 4 now!!! I love this series. It has all sorts of excitement with a mystery tossed in. I sincerely wish there were other books to follow.

Wow! Excellent

This was totally unexpected. The characters were different. The paranormal aspect was unusual which made for a fascinating story.

My Fave Series by Harris

I've really liked this series since it first came out, and it's my fave Harris series. I was happy to purchase the audio copies of books 1-3 in the "3 for 2 credits sale." Be sure to put all your fave books in your wish list: you never know when they may be going on sale;-)))

It was great

What made the experience of listening to Grave Sight the most enjoyable?

I enjoy listening to my audiobooks while driving. If the book is good, I always stay gone alittle while longer than I should. This book was one of those stay gone all day books.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

It kept me intrested. Not on the edge of my seat. It was just a really good book.

What about Alyssa Bresnahan’s performance did you like?

She played Harper the right way. She read it the way it was supposed to be interpreted. In my own personal opinion.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Lighting , blackout, and then came the dead.

Any additional comments?

Its just a really good series.

Entertaining

Very entertaining! Loved every minute! Narrator was excellent! Harper and Tolliver are very likable characters !

Meh

The protagonist in this book is unlikeable for me. I’ll probably read one more to give her a chance to grow but for now I’m unimpressed.

Great story

The story itself was great. kept you going to the end. The reader could be a bit monotone, a bit flat.

Great Story

Love the narrator! Had my family on the edge of our seats the entire car ride!

Pretty good.

I figured out the main twist pretty early on but it might just be because I read so many different types of stories. It was still entertaining and I really enjoyed the narration.
