A Grave End by Wendy Roberts

A woman died years ago, and the body’s still missing.

Julie Hall’s conscience tells her she needs to use her skills to help a grieving family find their daughter’s long-missing remains. The problem is, Alice was last seen in Julie’s hometown—a place so full of traumatic memories, the very idea of returning there nearly paralyzes Julie.

Clear boundaries help Julie overcome her fears and take the job. She’ll go all out with her search, but only for one week. An end date in sight will ease the anxiety she and her FBI boyfriend have about the price she’ll have to pay to do the right thing.

Despite a growing sense of foreboding as she hits one dead end after another, Julie is driven to keep looking for Alice. But after receiving vile threats and with her self-imposed deadline looming, Julie realizes she was right to be afraid—and she worries she may not survive this case.

This is the continuation of the series where Julie is coming back from a less than great experience using her abilities. However, she’s ready to help someone she once knew and finding her body is how Julie can show her appreciation.

Alice was a woman who shared a secret with Julie. Both were abused as children. But Julie fled the first chance she got and Alice was kind of sucked back in.

When Alice’s husband is convicted of her death, despite the missing body, Julie is asked to help find Alice.

This is a story of friendship, love, betrayal, and redemption. It was a twisting and turning story where Julie is trying to remember a traumatic event and, despite her best efforts, she’s worried she did something unforgivable. But you also have Alice’s family and they are a strange bunch too.

While I enjoyed this story, it wasn’t my favorite of the series. It was much more predictable than the previous books and it just didn’t have the edge that I have come to expect. However, I did still like it and would welcome reading more from this series.

A Grave Peril by Wendy Roberts

Sometimes at night, she can hear the dead calling.

Julie Hall’s job is to find bodies. For the sake of her sanity, she’s taking a much-needed break—but the dead don’t wait. With bodies piling up alongside her guilt, she knows she has to dive back in, despite pushback from her FBI boyfriend, Garrett Pierce. But Garrett is working a troubling case of his own and no longer seems like the man she fell in love with.

Despite his warnings—or maybe because of them—when Garrett goes missing, Julie has no choice but to use her skills to find where the cartel buries their victims… before he becomes part of the body count.

This is the third book in the series, but I don't believe it's necessary to read them in order. I somehow missed book two, but was able to jump right in to book three.

Julie is back at it again. But with her boyfriend acting strange and her just getting back at finding the dead, Julie isn't quite sure which way is up.

Rather than despair too much, she knows that she has to try to help Garrett. Knowing that the cartel is part of this doesn't deter Julie at all. Plus, with her new neighbors acting strange and the clues piling up, Julie sets out to find him with the help of his dead wife.

This story sweeps you up and doesn't let you down until the end. It's a guessing game of who to trust and what's really at stake. It was very entertaining and I loved each twist and turn. Roberts kept you guessing and while I was able to figure most of the mystery out, it was still incredibly fun to read.

A Grave Calling by Wendy Roberts

There had been no attempt to bury the dead girl, naked except for the white ribbon tied to her wrist.

Twenty-five-year-old Julie Hall has a unique ability: when she takes up a dowsing rod, she finds not water but bodies. To Julie, it's a curse, not a gift, and one she rarely uses—she prefers her quiet life in a trailer, with her grandfather and her dog for company. But when FBI agent Garrett Pierce shows up at her door seeking help with a case, she has no choice but to assist with their search.

Three girls are still missing. The killer is still out there. As bodies are discovered and more girls disappear, the case becomes almost more than Julie can bear. And when the killer turns his sights toward her, even her growing relationship with the protective Agent Garrett may not be enough to save her.

This was a great story. I love mystery books and even though I was able to figure out who the killer was, I didn't think that it took away from the story at all.

This was a complex, well developed mystery story with a little romance thrown in.

Garrett is trying to figure out who is killing women around the area. He enlists the help of Julie, who has a gift of finding dead people using dousing rods. Despite the fact that she hates to use her ability, he convinces her.

What Julie is fighting is her memories. She was abused by her grandmother and those memories haunt her. She has fought hard to find a medium in her life – she has her dog, Wookie, her job, and her grandfather. When Agent Pierce comes to her asking for her help, her life is thrown in to the media.

I really enjoyed how Roberts was able to weave the story, both past and present – it came together in a very well-rounded way and I can't wait to see what happens next in this series.
