A Grave End by Wendy Roberts is the fourth book in the “Bodies of Evidence” paranormal mystery series. Publisher: Carina Press-July 15, 2019.

A woman died years ago, and the body’s still missing.

Julie Hall’s conscience tells her she needs to use her skills to help a grieving family find their daughter’s long-missing remains. The problem is, Alice was last seen in Julie’s hometown—a place so full of traumatic memories, the very idea of returning there nearly paralyzes Julie.

Clear boundaries help Julie overcome her fears and take the job. She’ll go all out with her search, but only for one week. An end date in sight will ease the anxiety she and her FBI boyfriend have about the price she’ll have to pay to do the right thing.

Despite a growing sense of foreboding as she hits one dead end after another, Julie is driven to keep looking for Alice. But after receiving vile threats and with her self-imposed deadline looming, Julie realizes she was right to be afraid—and she worries she may not survive this case.

Julie goes back to her hometown in search of the dead body of a murder victim and faces her demons. I love how the author set this up with a multi-plot scenario. Did she or not? What happened in the bar that weigh heavily on her mind? Will she find the missing body? It becomes complicated when a person with psychic abilities tries to hone in on her business. Who really murdered Alice? There were a few surprises in store as Julie searches for clues. The author did a great job in keeping me intrigued and immersed in all that was happening. When I thought I had a handle on who was involved, the author changed direction all to enhanced my reading pleasure. And that strategically placed twist when it all came together, brilliant. This is one of my favorite series and this book, was the best of the bunch and I’m going to miss them.
