Publisher's summary

This box set includes the first three novels in the Jesse Sullivan series: award-winning novel, Dying for a Living, Amazon best seller, Dying by the Hour, and their companion novel, Dying for Her.

Called "smart, imaginative, and insanely addictive" by New York Times best seller Darynda Jones, this urban fantasy will thrill even the most die-hard urban fantasy fans.

On the morning before her 67th death, it is business as usual for agent Jesse Sullivan: meet with the mortician, counsel soon-to-be-dead clients, and have coffee while reading the latest regeneration theory. Jesse dies for a living, literally. Because of a neurological disorder, she is one of the population's rare 2 percent who can serve as a death surrogate, dying so others don't have to.

Although each death replacement is different, the result is the same: a life is saved, and Jesse resurrects days later with sore muscles, new scars, and another hole in her memory. But when Jesse is murdered and becomes the sole suspect in a federal investigation, more than her freedom and sanity are at stake. She must catch the killer herself - or die trying.

And that was only the beginning....

Became confusing

The first two books were amazing however the third book jumped between years with a lot of flashbacks. Was not my favorite thing to listen to, would have been less confusing if I had a book I could flip back to see the year

Book 1

Jess is annoying AF. I'm trying to get through this book without wanting to choke her.

too many gaps

I was able to ignore it at first when the scene would change abruptly but it kept happening. I'd think I missed something so I'd go back and relisten then discover the story just leaped ahead was all. Things would happen to the story and it wasn't clear immediately

The Characters and Narrator

I have to say to start this may be my favorite narrator so far. She is great with each character both male and female. The story plots were good and dynamic. I really enjoyed it all the way around. I would definitely recommend them to my peers.

If I had one negative it would be that there are no separations between books. So I was not sure what book I was on.

Great Story & Storytelling

while I've lived everything Zombie for many years, I can say Kory Shrym's version is epic. The sass, Spunk, and overall attitude of the Characters is delightful. A must read for any Zombie lovers!
