Grave Sight by Charlaine Harris is the first book of a mystery series featuring the character Harper Connelly. Harper was struck by lightning as a teenager and has since had the ability to sense corpses nearby and tell how they died; a freaky "gift" to be sure. I like that she's not a typical cute and spunky heroine, and that she has character flaws. Harper needs her step-brother, Tolliver, around her to keep her nerves at bay.Harper and Tolliver travel to a small town to locate the body a missing teenage girl. They find the body, but various occurrences keep preventing them from leaving town which forces them to solve the mystery of her death themselves. The ending is satisfying because it's nice and messy. I'm looking forward to reading more in this series.
