Her best book yet! A must-buy from a wonderful author!
I've always been a fan of Vivian Vande Velde. For those of you who don't know, she writes YA and J books, most fantasy, one vampire book, and a couple of historical ghost stories. She's very prolific--I think she had three hardbacks(at least three that my library purchased) published last year, and I'm slowly attempting to catch up with them all.

Her newest book is called "Never Trust a Dead Man", and I think it is her best one yet. It's billed as a "Mystery-Horror-Comedy about Love and Life After Death. Sort of." It's definitely a mystery, there is some horror and slight fantasy elements, and plenty of comedy. If you don't buy this book, check it out at the library, just to read the end of Chapter 13. Luckily, I was on break when I read that part, or else I would have been laughing in front of the whole library. There's also a very interesting punishment for murder, too.
