Up From the Grave (Night Huntress, Bk 7)
robinmy avatar reviewed on + 2053 more book reviews


Cat's ghostly Uncle Don tells Cat that her former team members have disappeared. He has had no contact with Tate, Juan, Dave or Cooper in weeks and they are not answering their phones. Cat and Bones approach the new team leader, Madigan, about the situation, but he refuses to cooperate. Knowing Madigan is behind the disappearance of their friends, Cat and Bones are joined by Ian, Spade, Denise, Mencheres and Kira. As they plan to infiltrate a secret government facility, they are shocked to find out what experiments have been taking place in the lab, and the deadly consequences of these experiments.

This is the last book in the Night Huntress series and, unfortunately, the weakest. We still have lots of action in this book which I found entertaining. We still have Cat and Bones. As a couple, they are stronger than ever. But the plot could have been better. It felt like it was a rehash of some scenes in the previous books. It became obvious what was going to happen and how the book would end. And, though I liked seeing some of my favorite characters in the series (Ian, Tate, Spade), many times it felt like a reunion story. I was happy that the Cat & Bones got a happy ending, but the story fell flat for me. My rating: 3.5 Stars.
