But he wants something in return: Charley. All of her - body and soul. And to keep her sister safe, it is a price she might be willing to pay... -

ISBN: 978-5-271-33231-9 Год издания: 2011 Издательство: Астрель, Corpus Язык: Русский Частный детектив Чарли Дэвидсон обладает двумя уникальными талантами: она общается с призраками и виртуозно вляпывается во всевозможные неприятности.

Но три адвоката, застреленные в одну ночь, убийцу не видели, к тому же не успели вытащить из тюрьмы несправедливо осужденного, так что у Чарли образуется двойной воз сыскной работы. Или даже тройной, если прекрасный незнакомец из ее снов - нечто большее, чем сумасшедшая эротическая фантазия…

The fact that Reyes has caught on to her latest venture only adds fuel to the inferno that he is. Good thing for Charley she's used to multi-tasking and always up for a challenge…especially when that challenge comes in the form of Reyes Farrow. -

Eighth Grave After Dark Darynda Jones
ISBN: 9780349403489 Год издания: 2015 Издательство: Piatkus Язык: Английский Charley Davidson has enough to be getting on with. She is, after all, incredibly pregnant and feeling like she could pop at any moment. But, just her luck, twelve deadly beasts from hell have chosen this time to escape, and they've made Charley their target. She takes refuge at the only place they can't get to her: the grounds of an abandoned convent. Before long, Charley also has a new case to hold her attention: the decades-old murder of a newly-vowed nun she keeps seeing in the shadows of the convent.
Add to that the still unsolved murder of her father, the strange behavior of her husband, and Charley's tendency to attract the, shall we say, undead, and she has her hands full . . . but also tied. While the angry hellhounds can't traverse the consecrated soil, they lurk beyond its borders like evil sentries, so Charley has been forbidden from leaving the sacred grounds and is powerless to get the answers she wants.
Luckily, she has her loyal team with her, and they're a scrappy bunch. They scour the prophesies, searching for clues on the Twelve, and their presence is comforting - it's almost as though they've all been drawn to her as part of a bigger picture . . . But the good feelings don't last for long because Charley is about to get the surprise of her crazy, mixed-up, supernatural life. -
