Silent Graves

A Riveting Paranormal Mystery Boxset

De: Alexandria Clarke

Narrado por: Jess Trepanier, Cheryl May

If She Only Knew

Calamity James can see the dead, but that doesn’t mean she likes it.

Calamity James, a reluctant paranormal detective, returns to her hometown for the first time in 10 years to attend her aunt’s funeral. When the local sheriff blackmails her into helping with a missing persons case, Cal can’t say no. Using her unique gift, sharp wits, and even sharper tongue, Cal flirts with death to solve the case. In Red River, the dead talk, and Cal is the only person who can hear them.

The Darkest Secret

After weeks of struggling with life in a small town and her new job as a special deputy, Calamity James finally sinks her teeth into a case. The Red River Junior Beauty Pageant is underway, and when a teenage contestant ends up dead, it’s up to Cal to find out what happened. The ghost girl is convinced she’s been murdered, but Cal isn’t so sure. Things in Red River are never what they seem.

Once Upon A Lie

When a string of disappearances turns deadly, Special Deputy Calamity James takes the case, but a new face in Red River is interfering with her investigation. Agent Albert Wong works for a special sect of the FBI—he wants Cal’s help, and he’s not above threatening her to get it. As Cal balances her growing workload, a vengeful spirit makes devious plans in the mountains. Even if Cal solves the case, she may not be able to save Red River.

very good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! good overall

Silent Graves or SYFY series Wynonna Earp?

I loved the books, but couldn’t give it all 5 Stars because the characters and background story is way to similar to the SYFY channels TV series Wynonna Earp.
Main Charters comparison:
Calamity James - Wynonna Earp
Winnie James - Waverly Earp
Teddy Burke - Nicole Haught
Watch the series for yourself and you’ll see the many similarities.

Interesting Mystery

I love the 1st of the series. The 3rd a little out there but really it’s easy to get lost in any of them. This was my 1st paranormal mystery as I’m typically a cozy kind of girl.

Surprisingly Entertaining

Silent Graves is a surprisingly entertaining paranormal mystery. Calamity can be frustrating but her decision making abilities are getting better. I enjoyed this set and look forward to other books about these characters.

Pro's & Con's

Pro: I really enjoy the Calamity James stories by Alexandria Clarke - Checked all my boxes for Mystery, and Paranormal
Con: What I REALLY REALLY REALLY DISLIKE about Alexandria Clarke books is - they put them in box sets so you get the same stories over and over instead of a series and numbering the books like most authors - I haven't purchased any more books by Alexandria Clarke for this reason alone -
Great creative writing, but either sell the books individually, or sell them as a series - when you mix and match different series and end up spending money (you can't get a refund) or a credit for something you've already got...seriously what's the point -

some things should be included in the tag

if you're going to add transgender issues into your storyline it would be nice if there was a tag letting me know so I wouldn't waste my money on it. I'm all okay with the lesbian love story the thing I can't stand is the transgender propaganda sorry that's just how I see it and I'm entitled to my opinion if you're going to have it in your stories you should at least have it as a tag

I like the story

but I can't take all the hissing. All s's, t's, and ch's have a hard hiss that makes it hard for me to listen because it hurts. The story is cool but I'm going to have to read it since my head can't take the hissing. If it doesn't bother you then it's a great story so far even if I didn't finish it.

Best cozy paranormal mystery I have read recently

Best cozy paranormal mystery I have read recently! I loved Calamity, she is outspoken and doesn't follow anyones rules. The cast of characters were all personable as well. The narrator is easy to listen to and brings the story to life. I will definitely continue the series.

I love this story line! Please give us more!!!

I love the characters in this series! It keeps me excited and wanting more. The characters development is awesome and I cannot wait for more from these characters. At least I hope we get more from these characters. I listened on my breaks and anytime I had a moment to listen. Thank you for a great series!

Excellent

Written by a good author whose stories are always good. The narration was also well done and added to the story by Cheryl May Given audio for my voluntary review
