If you hang around
with dead people, life can get pretty complicated. Take it from Charley
Davidson, part-time private investigator and full-time Grim Reaper. Complicated
is her middle name. The deceased find her very sparkly. Demons find her
irresistible. And one entity in particular wants to seduce her in every
way possible.
When Charley and Cookie (her best friend/receptionist)
have to track down a missing woman, the case is not quite as open and
shut as they anticipate. Cookie's friend Mimi disappeared five days
earlier. Mimi then sends Cookie a cryptic message telling Cookie to meet
her at an nearby coffee shop. The coffee is brewing, but Mimi's still
missing. There is, however, a clue Mimi left on the bathroom wall: a
woman's name. Mimi's husband explains to them that his wife had been
acting strange since she found out an old high school friend had been
murdered. The same woman whose name Mimi had scribbled on the bathroom
wall.Meanwhile, Reyes Alexander Farrow (otherwise known as the Son of Satan. Yes. Literally) has left his corporeal body and is haunting Charley. He's left his body because he's being tortured by demons who want to lure Charley closer. But Reyes can't let that happen. Because if the demons get to Charley, they'll have a portal to heaven...well, let's just say it wouldn't be pretty.
Can Charley handle hot nights with Reyes and even hotter days tracking down a missing woman? Can she keep those she loves out of harm's way? And is there enough coffee and chocolate in the world to fuel her as she does?
