Death and the Human

Private investigator Molly Coyle likes her life exactly the way it is: independent, uncomplicated, and entirely her own. Then she dies in an alley, and nothing stays the way it was.

She comes back, reluctantly, as the newest recruit of Salem's angel of death. The case that got her killed still needs solving. Her new employer has no interest in her objections. And the ghost cat assigned to assist her has even less patience for her prickly nature than she has for his opinions.

That would be enough, but there's more.

As Molly stumbles through her new existence, dying and coming back more than once along the way, she uncovers a truth about herself that shakes her harder than the dying did. The life she thought she had all figured out wasn't entirely hers to begin with...

Death and the Human is the prequel to the Chronicles of an Amateur Reaper series. It's the place to start for new readers, and essential reading for anyone who wants to know how Molly and Fuzzy got thrown together.
