About this ebook

New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Liliana Hart’s first book in her suspenseful Gravediggers series, featuring an elite group of mysterious men who might be dead to the world, but are also tasked with saving it—and no one can ever know.

The world thinks they're dead. The world is wrong.

Deacon Tucker is a dead man walking. A former black ops agent, he was disavowed and stripped of all honor before being recruited as a Gravedigger. But his honor and good name no longer matter, because no one knows he’s alive, and he’ll never get the recognition he deserves. His mission is simple: save the world or die trying. And for God’s sake, don’t ever fall in love. That’s a rule punishable by death. The kind of death a man can’t be brought back from.

Tess Sherman is the only mortician in Last Stop, Texas. She has no idea how Deacon Tucker ended up in her funeral home, but she’ll eat her hat if he’s only a funeral home assistant. Deacon is dangerous, deadly, and gorgeous. And she knows her attraction to him can only end in heartache.

Deacon is on a mission to stop the most fatal terror attack the world has ever known—what’s known as The Day of Destiny—a terrorist’s dream. But when he discovers Tess has skills he can use to stop them, he has to decide if he can trust her with secrets worth dying for. And, most important, he has to decide if he can trust her with his heart.

Wow! I loved this book! The author has long been a favorite of mine, but this is the first book in a new series and I wasn't sure what to expect. Suffice it to say, no matter what you're expecting, it will be different and so very much better. A group of men have been declared dead and then returned to the living as part of a very special group of operators that step in when no one else can or should step in. They have complex missions in which the weight of the world rests on their shoulders. Their cover is as employees of a funeral home. Five men to assist one funeral director that might have two funerals a month in a very small town....a town so small that it has a tiny population and everyone knows everyone else's business...a town so small that there is a bet on when (or if) the funeral director will take one of the men for a tumble. How hard could that be to keep a secret? This is fast paced romantic suspense that fans of the genre will love. I cared about the characters and felt invested in their story. Once again, the author has demonstrated that she is a master at her craft. For those who have not yet discovered her, snag this one as quickly as possible, you'll be glad you did.
