About this listen
There's always one more grave to dig
Lately, life has been unnaturally calm for vampires Cat Crawfield and her husband, Bones. They should have known better than to relax their guard, because a shocking revelation sends them back into action to stop an all-out war . . .
A rogue CIA agent is involved in horrifying secret activities that threaten to raise tensions between humans and the undead to dangerous heights. Now Cat and Bones are in a race against time to save their friends from a fate worse than death . . . because the more secrets they unravel, the deadlier the consequences. And if they fail, their lives—and those of everyone they hold dear—will be hovering on the edge of the grave.
Not sure whether it was due to the writing or whether it was due to the narrator but Bones went from cockney to upperclass accent and it was difficult to get around.
I found myself pondering several times whether I could bare it as the book continued. If it was due to the narrator alone, I’m not sure how it got passed the studio. Unless it was something I missed in one of the other books...
That being said, the story is good, very well thought out. I probably would have enjoyed it better had I read it instead.
A trial...

What did you like most about Up from the Grave?
It was a suitable end to good series. Complex well written story as always.What was one of the most memorable moments of Up from the Grave?
The scene on the jetty where Bones and Kat meet their nemesis.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No, I couldn't listen to it at one sitting - the scene on the jetty and the immediate aftermath was so well written, I found it stressful and I had a little weep - I had to put the story aside for a little while.Any additional comments?
It was a good end to a very well written series - the action scenes were strong and the book made me laugh and cry. If I have one negative it would be the narrator who as read all 7 books in the series sometimes forgot that the 'hero' Bones was English cockney and read him as upper crust which I found confusing but the slips did not detract from a powerful story. I know I will read the whole series.Good Ending

there are lots of surprises in this book, secrets kept and revealed from a fair few characters, if you're like me, some you'll guess and others will catch you out but all make for a really great read.
I sincerely hope this isn't the last we've heard from cat and bones, life will be truely dull without them.
fantastic

What made the experience of listening to Up from the Grave the most enjoyable?
I have loved all of this series and I was wondering how she would draw it to an end without killing anyone off. I have read some reviews on Amazon and they were not that favourable but I loved this book right from the start!! Usual snappy dialogue and laugh out loud moments. Lots of highs and lows - a true roller coaster of a bookWhat was one of the most memorable moments of Up from the Grave?
Plot spoiler here but when Bones was killed I was gutted - couldn't quite see how they would manage to get him to come back BUT then I remembered an earlier book.......What about Tavia Gilbert’s performance did you like?
I love the fact that you know who is talking by the accent she uses. At the beginning Bones' accent slipped a bit but she was soon back into the swing of things. She puts so much feeling into the reading that it makes a good book even easier to read.Brilliant end to a brilliant series
