The Dirt on Ninth Grave

By: Darynda Jones

Narrated by: Lorelei King

This audiobook includes a wonderful dedication to the long-time narrator of the series, Lorelei King, read by the author.

Grim Reaper Charley Davidson is back in the ninth installment of Darynda Jones' New York Times best-selling paranormal series, The Dirt on Ninth Grave

In a small village in New York Charley Davidson is living as Jane Doe, a girl with no memory of who she is or where she came from. So when she is working at a diner and slowly begins to realize she can see dead people, she's more than a little taken aback. Stranger still are the people entering her life. They seem to know things about her. Things they hide with lies and half-truths. Soon, she senses something far darker. A force that wants to cause her harm, she is sure of it. Her saving grace comes in the form of a new friend she feels she can confide in and the fry cook, a devastatingly handsome man whose smile is breathtaking and touch is scalding. He stays close, and she almost feels safe with him around.

But no one can outrun their past, and the more lies that swirl around her - even from her new and trusted friends - the more disoriented she becomes, until she is confronted by a man who claims to have been sent to kill her. Sent by the darkest force in the universe. A force that absolutely will not stop until she is dead.

Thankfully, she has a Rottweiler. But that doesn't help in her quest to find her identity and recover what she's lost. That will take all her courage and a touch of the power she feels flowing like electricity through her veins. She almost feels sorry for him. The devil in blue jeans. The disarming fry cook who lies with every breath he takes. She will get to the bottom of what he knows if it kills her. Or him. Either way.

Better and better!

I don't know how Darynda Jones does it, but each book is better than the last. This is one of my absolutely favorite series read by my absolutely favorite narrator Lorelei King. I am already waiting for the next one, keep them coming please!

Excellent

Very good continuation of the story. Better than the previous book. Different feel than the earlier books, a bit more upbeat.

My favorite.... Ever

This series is so beyond my favorite series I have ever listen too/read. Lorelei King as usual does such an incredible job of making the characters come alive and relaying all of the humor Darynda Jones writes!!! Darynda Jones has an unbelievable talent for writing and I absolutely just love her humor.. She cannot possibly write quickly enough for me I just finished this book and while normally I wait for the next audio book to come out I am going to buy the book and read it to hold me over until the next audible version comes out!!! I think I am going to listen to them all over again they were just such a pleasure!!! Thanks again I am completely in love with this series!!!

Great hopefully, I won't have to wait for next one

Loved it. love Lorelei, she is as great as the book
want next one NOW! Keeping readers interested is Darynda's style. Can't wait to see where she goes from here.

Worthy addition to the series...

Interesting twist at end of last book set up this story. Fortunately, the author didn't descend into the teen age angst of the first couple of books as she, in effect, got to reintroduce many characters. Not the strongest of the series but well done nevertheless. Narrator is one of the best in the business, Only Jim Dale and Stephan Rudnicki have similar levels of talent in my opinion.
