Review:

Grave Destiny by Kalayna Price is the 6 book in her Alex Craft series.  Alex is a grave witch, who runs an investigation firm, using her ability to rise the dead and talk to them.  Alex now has more magical fae ability, such as plane weaving, but she does not know how to handle this magic; she is also beholden to the Winter Queen (as an independent fae that other courts would love to have), but she tries to stay away from the Winter Court as much as possible and live in the human realm.

Prince Dugan of the Shadow Court comes to visit Alex to ask for help in a murder investigation.  Before she has a chance to accept or turn Dugan down, Falin, and the Winter Queen’s  Knight comes barging into Alex’s office to warn her about Dugan. With men not trusting each other, Alex agrees to take the case, since it affects both the Shadow Court and the Winter Court.  Of course, both men will stay close as Alex enters the Fae world as she works on discovering what happened to the two men (from both courts) who were mysteriously murdered.

What follows is an exciting and at times intense story that takes place in Fairie land through most of the book and  where Alex, Falin and Dugan discover that the murders are an attempt to start an all out war between the Shadow and the Winter Court; but the question is who is behind this.  With Alex in the center, she finds herself in some life threatening situations a number of times, including being affected by a incurable disease.   Will Alex survive?  Who is the betrayer?

There are so many twists and turns, keeping us guessing until the very end. While this is going on, we get to see Alex finally get some help learning how to handle her planeweaver ability, but she has a long way to go.  She will need everything she has to stay alive, and it seems there are many from the various courts that either wants Alex for themselves or to kill her.  Dugan was very good in helping Alex, but it was Falin, who showed his true feelings for Alex. Will she let herself trust him and fall for him again?

This is a complicated review, as it would require giving spoilers.  Grave Destiny was an exciting, action packed, interesting and wild adventure, as Alex tries to solve this case and come out of it alive.  Kalayna Price pulls a mind boggling twist at the end, that leaves us totally in shock. I have heard rumors that this book might be the end of the series, however with this unbelievable change, there is no way that we will be left hanging.  The Alex Craft seriesis written very well by Kalayna Price, and it is a fun series.
