Medical student Amanda Meyers thought she had her life all planned out until people started dying the moment they touched her. Being cleared of any wrongdoing didn’t stop the medical school from expelling her, and it didn’t rid her of the unfortunate nickname Grim Reaper.

Luckily, having a rep as the harbinger of death isn’t a total resume killer. Rick Rowling, Special Agent for the FBI’s Paranormal Cases Division recruits her to work for the Bureau. But the sexy, brilliant, outrageous loose cannon proves to be just as untouchable as the mysterious creature or creatures that may be responsible for the seemingly unsolvable murder that becomes their first case together.

Instead of treating patients, Amanda’s life becomes a test of her patience and a wild ride into the wicked paranormal world where her new boss runs the show. Together they face a ghoulish force that could destroy the entire city and a grueling family dinner that could leave Amanda contemplating harakiri.

It’s a battle of life and debt [student debt, that is] and saving the world has never been so funny.

To be honest I found this to be a bit of a mish-mash. While the initial idea of a medic who kills people by touching them would appear fairly unique, much of the rest lacked originality...Nana & the love of pineapple-upside-down cake was too reminiscent of Stephanie Plum for me!

It's a short tale at a hundredish pages & maybe therein lies the fault. I just seemed...against my better judgement I'm sorry to say... to be quite liking it when it seemed to come to an abrupt end, indeed the whole of chapter 10 seemed a bit bizarre with regard to how the story concluded.

Overall it's the sort of book that you have to be in the right mood for...& if you are, it's fun enough & quite likeable but still let down by the rushed feel to get it all over & done with.
