Book Reviews of Grave Sight (Harper Connelly Mysteries, Book 1)
Book Review: A Dead Sense
Summary: 3 Stars
Harper Connelly was struck by lightning as a teenager, and besides a weakness in her right leg and a paralyzing fear of storms, she has one other side effect: she can tell how a person died. Creepy as that sounds, Harper has made the best of the situation by deciding to use her "gift" to help those in need of answers. She and her stepbrother Tolliver travel to appointments where Harper can give her information and move on quickly, hoping to leave both the town and their abusive past behind. Unfortunately, in the little town of Sarne, Arkansas, neither the dead nor the living will let go.
This is the first installment in Charlaine Harris's series featuring Harper's unique ability, and unlike Harris's Southern Vampire Mystery series, this one is decidedly darker in tone. Harper is a fragile soul and her reliance on her stepbrother is at times almost a bit odd. The mystery that Harper and Tolliver find themselves caught up in is fairly transparent and has a few sizeable holes. I did enjoy the characters but felt that more actual background, rather than generalities, would have helped me to understand them more and would have given them more depth. However, Harris has a very readable, engaging style, and I found the storyline picking up as the book moved along. The preview for the next title in the series certainly left me intrigued enough to want to move forward. This one can be recommended for those who are fans of Ms. Harris's and enjoy some paranormal elements in their mysteries.
