This week's teaser comes from The Sinner by Amanda Stevens, on loan from a co-worker. This is book five in a series, and I recommend reading them in order, as there is a natural progression from one book to the next. This book started out creepy, and just got creepier.
About ten feet to my right, I’d glimpsed another cage. From what I could see through the weeds and vines, the device appeared identical to the first except for one grisly addition.
Inside the mortsafe, a pair of hands rose up out of a freshly mounded grave to grasp the iron grate.

ABOUT THE BOOK:
Series: Graveyard Queen #5
"I am a living ghost, a wanderer in search of my purpose and my place . . ."
I'm a cemetery restorer by trade, but my calling has evolved from that of ghost seer to death walker to detective of lost souls. I solve the riddles of the dead so the dead will leave me alone.
I've come to Seven Gates Cemetery nursing a broken heart, but peace is hard to come by…for the ghosts here and for me. When the body of a young woman is discovered in a caged grave, I know that I've been summoned for a reason. Only I can unmask her killer. I want to trust the detective assigned to the case for he is a ghost seer like me. But how can I put my faith in anyone when supernatural forces are manipulating my every thought? When reality is ever-changing? And when the one person I thought I could trust above all others has turned into a diabolical stranger?

I loved this book. I can't wait for the next one, except it's going to be the last one...for a while, at least. :-(
Also looking forward to the next one, as is the coworker I got hooked on the series.
