As Charley puts the pieces together (it all hinges on a man wrongly imprisoned for the murder of a teenage boy), she is also wrestling with her own demons-literally. But as the three lawyers were shot in the back of the head, they and Charley need real detective work to solve the case. Teaming up with her uncle, a detective on the Albuquerque Police force, Charley is remarkably proficient at solving murders-she simply asks the recently departed what happened. But then there are those with unfinished business, such as the three law partners who were just murdered. To the dead, Charley glows and is an irresistible incentive to leave their worldly attachments. Technically, Charley Davidson is a grim reaper, a term applied to humans (she’s not the only one) who act as a portal for those who need help passing to the other side. The intended laughs don’t materialize in this supernatural chick-lit whodunit, featuring a back-talkin’ P.I.
