Right away, Perry's writing is excellent. It's super easy to read and pulls you into the story with great descriptions of Salem. You can almost feel the autumn air and the magical vibe of the town, which makes it a perfect setting for a mysterious and supernatural tale.
The characters are what really make Grave Errors stand out. Lee Barrett, the main character, continues to grow. Her unique charm and special "gift" make her a lovable detective you can easily connect with. Her interactions with her Aunt Ibby and the amazing cat O'Ryan add warmth and humor, making their detective team a lot of fun to follow. The other characters are also well-developed, creating a rich and believable community that feels familiar.
The mystery itself is a perfect example of cozy suspense. Perry skillfully crafts an exciting plot with unexpected twists that keep you guessing until the very end. Unlike some cozy mysteries that can be predictable, Grave Errors feels fresh, making the journey to solve the mystery as enjoyable as finding out the answer. The mix of traditional detective work and Lee's subtle paranormal insights gives it a unique and comforting feel.
Whether you've been following the Witch City Mysteries for a while or you're new to Carol J. Perry's books, Grave Errors is a wonderful read. It shows how skilled Perry is that even if you start with this book, you'll quickly get hooked and want to read more (and future) adventures. If you're looking for a relaxing, enjoyable mystery with lovable characters, a captivating plot, and a touch of magic, Grave Errors is the book for you. It's a truly enchanting addition to the genre.
