Cemetery tour guide Pepper Martin never imagined she'd get to meet rock legend Damon Curtis, the bad boy poet who made millions of teenage girls scream. After all, he kicked the bucket years before she was born. But thanks to her newfound ability to chat up the dead, Pepper's got a front row seat perfect for swooning over the still-sexy Damon's latest lyrics. He's convinced that his former bandmate Vinnie Pallucci murdered him back in 71, and he's promised Pepper she won't get any rest or peace until she helps him prove it.But when Pepper goes behind the music, she finds Vinnie with a knife in his heart and the rest of the band members running for their lives. And if Pepper doesn't snare the killer soon, Damon's next hit from the great beyond might be her swan song.

Like this installment in the Pepper Martin series, but I wish the overall plot had moved forward even just a little bit. Everything was status quo with 95% of the characters. Pepper is still seeing ghosts and flirting with Quinn and he alternates with flirting and rolling his eyes. Dan is still a huge mysterious black hole who occasionally hangs out with ghost hunters. Ella is still a chipper, over-protective boss. We did get to meet Pepper's arse of an ex-fiance. He lived up to his reputation. Speaking of - I did love Ghost!Grandma Panhorst. She was a riot.
The basic mystery was fun and with a tiny amount of adrenaline (only a small car chase in the cemetary and one close call with death). I could have done without the ridiculous Pepper falls for the hot if only he wasn't 40 years dead former rock star part. It felt like it was wedged into the story to create drama or angst or something. Whatever it was supposed to do, it didn't work. still like the series and hopefully the next book has more forward momentum.
