Tombs of Endearment

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.
