Grave Reservations

Bookseller recommendation

“A light and comedic police procedural mystery with a psychic travel agent as the sidekick sounds weird, but is just quirky enough to work. Leda is a fun main character, even if we have to question her small business choice in today’s world. And if the main storyline wasn’t quirky enough already, we also get to enjoy her channeling her psychic abilities through singing karaoke to answer the unspoken questions of patrons at her favorite local dive bar. Speaking of which, her friendship circle is delightful, and although it primarily focused on her bestie Niki, I loved the little bits we got of the whole bar crew. Priest also did a good job in developing the working relationship between Leda and Detective Grady Merritt. Seattle made the perfect backdrop and became a character itself. I love feeling dropped right into the setting. Checking the boxes for cozy, entertaining and easy to read (or listen to!), I will definitely be on the lookout for the next one.”

“An engaging, quirky police procedural set in Seattle. There is even psychic karaoke! Great characters with a past and a present day murder to solve. I'm hopeful this will be a series! Narrator on the Libro.fm audio book was excellent.”
