Supernatural Born Killers by Casey Daniels is the 9th book in the “Pepper Martin” mystery series. Publisher: Berkley Prime Crime, September 2012
As Garden View Cemetery’s new community
relations manager, Pepper is feeling overwhelmed with planning the annual party
to attract new sponsors. Luckily, some of the cemetery’s permanent residents
have volunteered to give Pepper a ghostly hand, and she’s not about to turn
away the help. But when a murdered ghost starts leaving puddles everywhere,
Pepper quickly finds her newly acquired free time occupied. The dead man
is her ex-boyfriend Quinn’s former partner Jack Haggarty—and he isn’t going
away until Pepper figures out the real reason behind his murder. And while
Quinn recently had a brush with the afterlife, he still isn’t ready to accept
Pepper’s abilities—or offer his skills as a detective. Now, Pepper has to
convince Quinn she’s the real deal and investigate Jack’s death—before someone
else meets their end in a watery grave.
What a fun book. Casey has delivered a great story that I could not put down. This fast-pace and action-fill drama had me quickly turning the pages as I had to know what happens next. Pepper was at the top of her game, especially when she was building a staff that was out of this world. Teaming up with Quinn for both their respective cases was a fun ride that I enjoyed especially their witty repartee. It was great having her parents play a role in this story while adding some comedic outtakes. The mystery was good especially the big reveal over the person who should be dead, that, I didn’t see coming. Boasting a great cast of characters, a perfect setting with some history thrown in, this is the best book ever in this fabulously wonderful series and I look forward to the next exciting adventures with Pepper and her friends.
