Better Off Dead - Pump Up Your Book Tours



About the book:

They say dead men tell no tales, but that’s just because they’ve never worked as a Grim Reaper.
Grim Reapers are real. They are governed by the Council of Reapers. Reapers are responsible for the capture and containment of dead souls that refuse to or cannot move on to the afterlife.
Lori Standford’s mother died six months ago. Now she’s back, haunting Lori out of her home. Lori turns to her close friend, Emma Grym, mother of Thane and Mort Grym, for help.
Now Thane and Mort find themselves embroiled in a mystery of dead men that stretches all the way to the top.





Jason Krumbine is the author behind the pulse pounding, wisecracking Alex Cheradon Series, the dead soul hunting Grym Brothers Series (including Two and a Half Dead Men, The Dead Couple and Better Off Dead), and the tongue-in-cheek paranormal romance “A Graveyard Romance.”

My Review:

Mort and Thane have a rather unusual case this time.  It isn't an official reaping, but rather a favor to a friend of their's mother.  Lori's mother died six months ago and for some reason seems to have not moved on.  Now, there's no reason for her to  not move on, and it should be a fairly easy reaping.  But of course nothing goes as planned.  It would appear that Lori's mother may have had some very serious unresolved issues...or that perhaps something is not quite right.

The best mystery of the series so far, this one involves family, friends, and poltergiests.  As Mort and Thane argue their way through things while still trying to find out what happened to their father.  The brothers are starting to make some progress that is quite surprising (I won't give it away).  This was my favorite of the series so far.
