This tremendously long supernatural mystery-suspense series is written
with plenty of humor, and ends up being very believable. It reminds me
very much of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum novels. We are treated to
the seedy underside of human experience in each one, rendered cohesive
by a supportive cast of family and friends, all strung upon a thread of
erotic romance.
They also have a numerical value in every title that give up very little else of the plot. As you can guess, this is volume 1, where the main character, who's been seeing dead people all her life, discovers that her astral traveling lover is going to be taken off life support, which could trigger the Apocalypse. Meanwhile she has mysteries to solve for her PI clients, on top of helping the many souls she encounters to move on into the Light.
It's quite a juggling act for Charlie to handle, but it's how she rolls. I'm pretty certain every volume is going to be more of the same, nonstop chaos very reminiscent of real life for those of us cursed to live in 'interesting times'.
