There are a lot of changes in Pepper’s life. She has a new job and more responsibilities at the Garden View Cemetery. As the detective to the dead, she is still finding it a challenge to convince Detective Quinn Harrison that she talks to ghosts. With all these added tasks, Pepper needs help. And who better to help a ghostbuster than ghosts. Three such ghosts are more than happy to help with the newsletter, her budget, and secretarial duties. Course, they want something in exchange. Easy tasks f...more
This has been a series that I have enjoyed for awhile and I love that even this far into the series (this is book 9), I am still surprised and able to give the book more than 3 stars. This addition to the series was fun, creepy and interesting. A lot happens both as far as Pepper’s supernatural investigations and her work at the cemetery go, but also in her personal life. Between her parents and hottie Detective Quinn, Pepper has definitely shouldn’t be able to concentrate on her work, but she t...more
What a fun book. Casey has delivered a great story that I could not put down. This fast-pace and action-fill drama had me quickly turning the pages as I had to know what happens next. Pepper was at the top of her game, especially when she was building a staff that was out of this world. Teaming up with Quinn for both their respective cases was a fun ride that I enjoyed especially their witty repartee. It was great having her parents play a role in this story while adding some comedic outtakes. T...more

4 1/2 stars. As this book begins, Pepper is back working at the cemetery and has been promoted. The job is pretty demanding but Pepper soon finds that there are plenty of ghostly inhabitants of the cemetery who are dying (yes a pun) to do something. Pepper is more than willing to accept their help because she and Quinn are finally back together, sort of. And of course the ghost of a man who was murdered is haunting her. But this ghost is bound and gagged, so getting information from him is reall...more
I really wanted to like this book. After the last one, where Pepper was just a puppet of the author, this story showed a little growth in her relationship with Quinn. The plot was good, the ghost aspect was interesting, the introduction of Pepper's parents, etc was good. But the bad guy? No way. Even with Pepper's propensity to do exactly the wrong thing and trust the wrong people, this one was just too weird.

As a narrator, Pepper is still feisty and humorous. Her new job as Community Coordinator for the largest historic cemetery in Cleveland comes with a ghostly secretary, accountant and newspaper reporter. Needless to say, this leaves her with plenty of time to investigate unsolved crimes around the city. When a ghost keeps popping up everywhere she goes dripping water from his soggy clothes, she enlists her boyfriend the homicide detective to help her find out what happened to the bound and gagged...more
Pepper Martin is a cemetery tour guide and reluctant medium that is thrilled to have her job back with a promotion. She acquires a staff to help with her everyday job tasks so she has more time to spend with Quinn and solve the crime.
this book in the series starts out with Pepper getting married and goes downhill from there. If you already are a fan of pepper's you won't want to miss this one. If you arent yet a fan - you will love it anyway. All her books are stand alone with a different adven...more

Silly but readable--another account of Pepper Martin who must try to lay ghosts to rest by solving their mysteries, while working her day job in a cemetery and reforging her relationship with her policeman boyfriend (who doesn't believe in ghosts.) In this one, Pepper has to try to decipher mysterious messages from a ghost whose mouth is gagged, so he can only act things out; fend off unwanted advances from a rich socialite while trying to wheedle him into a large donation for the cemetery she w...more

I have never been quiet about how much I love this series. In fact I almost never read 'cozy' mysteries anymore and the truth of the matter is that Casey Daniel's "Pepper Martin" books truly are so much more than most cozy mysteries. It probably shouldn't even be considered on of that genre. Pepper is one of my favorite heroines. She is spunky, witty, and sarcastic. She also is tenderhearted and will do about anything for anyone, especially if you are one of those pesky ghosts she can see and co...more
This wasn't my favorite Pepper Martin. It felt like there was a lot of background repetition at the beginning. I suppose that's good for new readers to the series, but gets old for those of us that have read the series from the beginning.
There was a lot of good progress on many of the ongoing plot points of the series in this one. Not a lot of twists to the mystery though. Luckily the characters are likable enough to make the book a fast, fun read.

Casey Daniels has certainly outdone herself in this latest Pepper Martin adventure. With Pepper's return to her job and a promotion (with a raise) the surprise return of her parents has added a new layer of interest and humor to the story. If you have never read one of Ms. Daniels Pepper Martin books, then you need to start now. You will be held spellbound from beginning to surprise ending.

Recommends it for:
anyone interested an original fantasy with a HOT romantic interest.
Pepper is quite the interesting character in this amazing original fantasy!
My gripe? I'm hooked and since I started with this book in the series, now I HAVE to go back and read the previous. And then there's the fact that with Pepper's hilarious parents added in this book, I'll HAVE to read the future books. Just when am I going to sleep?

I love this series! It's fun and keeps my attention the whole way through. I really liked this book the best so far it had a different twist more ghost interaction and more of a definite romance for Pepper. I highly recommend this series if you are looking for something fun to read that's a quick read.
I still love this series. I love how I know so much of where she is talking about since I live here and yes,there really is a cemetery in Cleveland with President Garfield buried here along with several mayors,a tycoon, and a few other people you may have heard of before. I love how Daniels takes local history and legends to create her stories. I just hope that this is not the last one in the series if the ending of this book is any kind of hint.
This was another great book by a wonderful author. The story was just the right blend of suspense and humor. The cover was definitely a hint as to what the story revolved around but not what I expected. I'm already looking forward to the next book in this series.
I really enjoyed this. I loved how she ended up with others getting her job done for her, giving them just what they wanted and getting her off the hook for what she didn't want to do. The mystery was good as well.
I keep reading this series because I like Pepper. But the plots are getting too unbeliebable. Even for a paranormal mystery series. And the bad guy in this book just didn't come off as plausible to me.
A good book, interesting enough, got a little dry in the middle. Got a little annoyed with how ditzy Pepper can be. Seemed like she cared a little to much about clothes. It was an acceptable read.
This is my favourite book out of all of them. The ending is great and u can't wait for the next book to come out pepper and quinn finally got the happy ending the deserve
:D
:D
I really liked it. I'm glad she and you know who, finally came to an understanding and I hope this is not the last book in the series. But if it is, I'm satisfied by the way it ended.
This was a great fun read. Having both Mom, Dad and Quinn in the act was really fun. This time the ghost is not so friendly. Happy Ghoul reading
This was pretty good. I was a little put off in the beginning because Quinn was annoying me a bit. It got better though and I liked the ending.
these books just keep getting better another good light read with a few laughs thrown in cant wait for the next 1
Best Pepper Martin book yet! Finally, all of the pieces come together - ghosts, Quinn, a family secret . . . so much fun! I cant wait to see what happens next.
I think I have read the entire series in order, so my opinion is this one was a little light weight on fun and more geared to superman comics.
Really love this series. Got a little confused towards the end, due to the timing of a certain event, but apart from that, great story!
Excellent!!!!!
Loved it as I have all in this series!
Love the Pepper series. Surprise Mom and Dad arrive on the scene. This story revolves around a comic book convention that is SUPER-MAN. I am not saying anything else that would spoil this.
Just be a Pepper you will not regret it. Read these in order of the series.

A couple years ago I applied for a part-time job as a tour guide at a historic cemetery not far from where I live. Why? Well, aside from the fact that the job would force me to step away from my computer and remind me that there was a life beyond writing (even in a place where just about everybody was dead), I love cemeteries.
