When Keira first woke alone in a strange forest, she remembered only two things: that she could speak with the dead, helping them move on from the mortal world, and that sinister mask-wearing men were hunting her. She had no idea what she'd done to earn their hatred or what dangerous secrets she may have uncovered. Until now. Peeling back layer upon layer of the mystery surrounding her origins, Keira has finally learned that the strange masked men work for Artec, an organization profiting off spectral energy produced by hundreds of chained, tormented souls. Their goal is to spread their macabre cemeteries across the world, using the agony of the dead to extend their power and reach―and only Keira and her loyal group of friends can stop them. But there are still mysteries to uncover in Keira's foggy memories, and as she prepares to fight for the souls of the tormented dead, what she doesn't know about her own past may come back to haunt her.

    I love this series so much!

    Keira, Mason, and Zoe are an absolute dream team. Add in Henry and you've got a whole mess of trouble!

    This book follows our characters as they continue to figure out what happened in Keira's past and also how to take down the big bad. There are plenty of scenes that give us more information about what is going on in the world than what we've known previously and some great character growth throughout.

    While I've never found this series to be quite as spooky as some of Darcy's other works, this was probably the least spooky by far. There are definite moments of creep factor but these have too much plot for me to feel total creeps. I think because so much is happening we don't have time to sit with the spooky bits. But that honestly doesn't take away from my enjoyment but if you're looking for something super creepy, this probably isn't the Darcy book for you.

    This was the best one yet! This series will forever live rent free in my head. I'm so glad that we get a 5th book to find out more about what happens next for the group. 
    I love how everyone developed in this one, and we finally got answers to all the questions popping up throughout the last 3 books with Keira gaining her memories, finally meeting the face behind Aztec, seeing firsthand how Daisy plays into everything, and seeing how powerful Keira can be.

    Another great addition to Darcy Coates' Gravekeep Series.

    Picking up right where the 3rd ended. Asking questions and added new ones.
    Can't wait to see what happens next
