Charley Davidson has enough to be getting on with. She is, after all, incredibly pregnant and feeling like she could pop at any moment. But, just her luck, twelve deadly beasts from hell have chosen this time to escape, and they've made Charley their target. She takes refuge at the only place they can't get to her: the grounds of an abandoned convent.

Before long, Charley also has a new case to hold her attention: the decades-old murder of a newly-vowed nun she keeps seeing in the shadows of the convent. Add to that the still unsolved murder of her father, the strange behavior of her husband, and Charley's tendency to attract the, shall we say, undead, and she has her hands full... but also tied.

While the angry hellhounds can't traverse the consecrated soil, they lurk beyond its borders like evil sentries, so Charley has been forbidden from leaving the sacred grounds and is powerless to get the answers she wants. Luckily, she has her loyal team with her, and they're a scrappy bunch. They scour the prophesies, searching for clues on the Twelve, and their presence is comforting - it's almost as though they've all been drawn to her as part of a bigger picture...

But the good feelings don't last for long because Charley is about to get the surprise of her crazy, mixed-up, supernatural life.

Reviews for Eighth Grave After Dark (#8 Charley Davidson)

Hilarious and heartfelt, sexy and surprising...I'm begging for the next one!! - J.R. Ward If you enjoy Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum, you will certainly enjoy Charley Davidson. - Suspense Magazine I am furiously envious of Darynda Jones and rue the day she came up with this concept, damn her eyes. First Grave on the Right kidnapped me from the first paragraph. - Mary Janice Davidson Rollicking humour, sizzling sexual tension and a spine-tingling mystery. - Kresley Cole
