Grave Reservations Summary

Grave Reservations: A Novel by Cherie Priest

Delightful. -The New York Times Book Review

A psychic travel agent and a Seattle PD detective solve a murder in this quirky mystery in the vein of Lisa Lutz's The Spellman Files and Charlaine Harris's Aurora Teagarden series.

Meet Leda Foley: devoted friend, struggling travel agent, and inconsistent psychic. When Leda, sole proprietor of Foley's Flights of Fancy, impulsively re-books Seattle PD detective Grady Merritt's flight, her life changes in ways she couldn't have predicted.

After watching his original plane blow up from the safety of the airport, Grady realizes that Leda's special abilities could help him with a cold case he just can't crack.

Despite her scattershot premonitions, she agrees for a secret reason: her fiance's murder remains unsolved. Leda's psychic abilities couldn't help the case several years before, but she's been honing her skills and drawing a crowd at her favorite bar's open-mic nights, where she performs Klairvoyant Karaoke-singing whatever song comes to mind when she holds people's personal effects. Now joined by a rag-tag group of bar patrons and pals alike, Leda and Grady set out to catch a killer-and learn how the two cases that haunt them have more in common than they ever suspected.

Grave Reservations is an ebullient tap dance of a mystery with a splash of Seattle color and, well, psychic karaoke. Great fun! -Christopher Moore, New York Times bestselling author of Lamb and A Dirty Job
[A] frothy blend of paranormal cozy and off-the-books police procedural... Readers will hope this is the start of a series. -Publishers Weekly

The half-psychics, female friendships, and mystery of a dead fiance make it fun, but it's the story of every woman's second act that makes Grave Reservations shine. It's exactly the witty escape read you need right now. -Sarah Langan, author of Good Neighbors
A caffeinated treat for fans of Northwest mysteries and oddball sleuths. A fun, propulsive read. -Nova Jacobs, author of The Last Equation of Isaac Severy

Cherie Priest's work never fails to delight. Grave Reservations is chock full of fun characters, action and sparky, spunky humor. Leda Foley and Niki Nelson are terrific creations who hopefully will appear again soon. -Authorlink
Light and irreverent, but with more serious themes including grief and responsibility, this is an excellent series starter for Priest's fans as well as new readers. Suggest to those who enjoyed Mia Manansala's Arsenic and Adobo. -Booklist
