Book Description
From the author of The New York Times bestselling series
that began with First Grave on the Right—a thrilling Young Adult novel
garnering high praise and early buzz from major authors.
Ten years ago, Lorelei's parents disappeared without a
trace. Raised by her grandparents and
leaning on the support of her best friends, Lorelei is finally beginning to
accept the fact that her parents are never coming home. For Lorelei, life goes on.
High school is not quite as painful as she thinks it will
be, and things are as normal as they can be.
Until the day the school's designated loner, Cameron Lusk, begins to
stalk her, turning up where she least expects it, standing outside her house in the dark, night
after night. Things get even more
complicated when a new guy—terrifying, tough, sexy Jared Kovach—comes to
school. Cameron and Jared instantly
despise each other and Lorelei seems to be the reason for their animosity. What does Jared know about her parents? Why does Cameron tell Jared he can't have
Lorelei? And what will any of them do
when Death comes knocking for real?
Thrilling, sassy, sexy, and inventive, Darynda Jones's first
foray into the world of teens will leave readers eager for the next
installment.

Review
I won Death and the girl next door from goodreads and Wow I’m
so happy I got picked for this ARC. What
an amazing read I Highly recommend this book it had me laughing so hard at
times, I loved Lorelei She is strong and smart and she does not take crap from anyone
especially Cameron and sexy Jared. I love that she can take them down with one
kick to the shin you go girl! (you will understand when you read the book!)
This will defiantly be a book I will read over and over again and I can’t wait
for book 2!
When Lorelei touches people she receives visions, when she
touches the new kids in school Jared she gets the strangest one yet. But what’s
even stranger is now that there’s a new kid in school, Cameron already seems to
hate him and he keeps following her everywhere.
Lorelei starts to fall for Jared the more they are together
but Jared has a secret and he’s not the only one it seems and no one can keep
them for long. When Lorelei finds out she does not know what to think.. With
strange dreams of a lady with children around her who asks her if she’d up to
the task of saving the world she doesn’t know what to think. But she has to
figure out what happened to her parents when she just a little girl and try to save
the world without being killed in the process.
