| "Series fans will be delighted to revisit Marr's colorful cast" --Publisher's Weekly on Cursed By Death. Return to the world of Graveminder, Goodreads Choice Winner for Best Horror Novel in this stand-alone Graveminder novel that Publisher's Weekly calls "equally quirky" Amity Blue has begun to remember strange impossible events, her ex trying to bite her and people vanishing like mist. After a stalker—a <i>dead</i> stalker—appears at the bar where she works, Amity discovers that the dead don't always stay dead in Claysville. Along with the current Graveminder, Rebekkah Barrow, Amity seeks out the enigmatic Mr D in the afterlife, only to discover that the centuries-old contract to protect Claysville has been broken. Caught between life in a cursed town and Death himself, Amity and Rebekkah must find a way to put the dead where they belong—because if the Hungry Dead keep rising, everyone in town will be lost.
