A Grim Reaper's Guide to Catching a Killer
A Grim Reaper's Guide to Catching a Killer | Maxie Dara
5 posts | 5 read | 7 to read
Murder is not her department. Its not like it used to be. Modern-day grim reapers wear business casual, not black cloaks, and they dont carry scythes, they work for S. C. Y. T. H. E. (Secure Collection, Yielding, and Transportation of Human Essences), where the Department of Natural Causes is the least exciting gig. And thats how Kathy Valence likes it: boring and predictable. She has enough stress in her personal life; shes mid-divorce, pregnant, and terrified she doesnt have what it takes to be a good mom. Then, she goes to pick up a new client and finds his soul is missing. When she finally tracks down Conner Ortiz, he angrily insists he was murdered, and he refuses to move on until Kathy finds out why and by whom. Kathy has only forty-five days to solve the mystery before the boys soul is doomed to roam the earth as a ghost forever. To do that shell have to call on the help of her retired mentor, her almost ex-husbandand, inconveniently, Conner himself. This is the wildest case of her career . . . and one wrong move could cost Kathy her job, not to mention her life.

An imaginative new series! This entertaining read introduces Kathy Valence, a transition specialist for the Secure Collection, Yielding, and Transportation of Human Essences, or SCYTHE – a corporate take on grim reaping. Kathy loves and excels her job, but her latest case throws her into a mystery as she‘s dealing with a personal crisis. Heavier themes are balanced with wit and charm. This series has potential! ⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 (3.5)/5 ❤️📚

This was a fun read - I‘d expected something a little more cozy mystery, but this is a bit more serious than your average Hallmark mystery. It‘s well written, full of danger, and a bit quirky. I also really loved the supernatural element.

I was just going to get this started yesterday and finish it some time this week, but you know what they say about best laid plans! There are some debut-author execution issues, but it‘s a clever idea and cute story. Nine books left to meet my Goodreads goal and eight books left from my #TenBeforeTheEnd list. I have most of these on hand ✳️ or on hold✴️.

ChaoticMissAdventures So close!! Great job. 3mo
