The first time Vickie Preston saw a ghost was when she was 17. She was babysitting for her neighbors and a killer broke in with the intention of killing them both. The neighbors oldest son, Dylan, had died a year or so previously. He appeared and told her to get out ... actually saving their lives.
The man who tried to kill her was shot by a street cop and now resides behind bars for the rest of his life.

Excellent cover for this book. Great representation of the story. Excellent use of graphics. Interesting typography. That said, AGAIN the author's name should not overpower the title on a book cover, and this one does just that. So It loses a star for having one of my biggest pet peeves in cover creation history!

I believe this is the first book I’ve read by Heather Graham. This is not my normal type of book I read but I did find myself enjoying the story line and wanting to find out who committed these crimes throughout. It started off pretty intense just from the first few pages so it peaked my interest right away! All the way until the end, I had no idea who did all the killings! Pretty good suspense throughout!

When she was seventeen years old, Vickie Preston survived an attack by a serial killer who had broken into the home where she was babysitting. She kept hearing noises in the house and chalked them up to her 'nerves' and viewing too many horror films. Then a ghost (Dylan- the family's dead son)appeared and told her to get out of the house. She grabs Noah, the toddler she is babysitting, and runs out of the house and up to officer Price who saves their lives.

This time we are treated to the history of Boston. I guess it makes sense to ask the heroine Vickie for assistance as she knows Boston's history and she sees dead people. But I did find her a bit too pragmatic about everything.
Quite a few missed editing errors, but overall, another good installment for the series.

Read this out of order for the Krewe of Hunter series.That’s because I stopped reading the series after a few books in, It seemed like all individual book plots were just repeats of one of the previous books with some supernatural stuff thrown in.
Perhaps because I’ve been away from this series, I could be more objective again. This book starts with a great hook: a babysitter, a baby that seems to see and hear something or someone that’s not visible, strange noises, and then a ghostly apparition...more

It’s true that some of us do see dead people. Or ghosts as these spirits of the once living are more often referred to. Not everyone who can see them really wants to, but the choice is really not up to us but to the ghosts who have something to say.

“Dying Breath” is a spine-tingling paranormal mystery with a dash of romance that opens when teenager Vickie Preston who’s being stalked by a serial killer while babysitting at the Ballantine’s house is warned by a ghost to flee. Saved by FBI Special Agent Griffin Pryce who was a Boston street cop at the time, years later they’re reunited, searching for the victims of the Undertaker who are abandoned in crypts or mausoleums; a cryptic note giving clues to where they’re buried.

Teenage Vickie is babysitting Noah when an escaped convict breaks into the house with the intention of killing Vickie and Noah. They are saved by the ghost of Noah's deceased older brother Dylan. He warns Vickie of the danger and gets her out of the house. There is finally a cop around when you need one and young patrol officer, Griffin Pryce, stops the killer (with Dylan's help).

I’ve been binging my library’s collection of Heather Graham books, and this is the 11th Krewe of Hunters title. Sadly, they are all starting to blur into one another, but I do enjoy the stories that take place in haunted historical locations, such as The Night is Watching, The Night is Alive, The Hexed, and The Betrayed. Thankfully Dying Breath is also steeped in history and made an excellent backdrop for a Krewe story.

In this book we are introduced to Vickie and Griffin, whose paths have crossed once again. I really enjoyed that dynamic of the story. They met when Vickie was a 17-year-old babysitter running with her quarry from a convicted and escaped murderer. Griffin was the officer that happened to be nearby and took the man down. Now Griffin is with the FBI as part of one of their Krewe of Hunters units and needs Vickie's help to find the person who has been burying people alive. This inevitably leads to...more

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Walkthrough – Divine Beast Vah Rudania Main Quest: Goron City, Yunobo and boarding Divine Beast Vah Rudania
To get the Goron portion of the Free the Divine Beasts quest underway, you’ll need to head to Death Mountain. Everything’s about to get warm.

To go up Death Mountain start at Eldin Tower and follow the path to the west and then north. Before you go, keep in mind it gets real hot up there. You’re going to need some heat-beating elixirs to put out the flames.
A few things to point out here: First off, the heat-resistant effect (indicated by a Sun and a downwards arrow) isn’t the buff you need for Death Mountain. You actually need Fireproof, indicated by a flame icon for the buff.
Getting Fireproof Resistance for the trip up Death Mountain and to Goron City
If you need access to some of these elixir and are struggling to create them, head to the Foothill Stable, just down the road to the south of Eldin Tower and next door to the Mo’a Keet Shrine.
There an NPC named Gaile (she’s usually carrying a broom) will sell you some: one for 60 rupees, two for 110 rupees and three for 150 rupees. Buy three.
When ready, start heading up the path to Death Mountain. You’ll pass through the Southern Mine, then Goron City. Head past Goron City a little way to find the Shae Mo’sah Shrine. It’s worth at least activating (if not completing) this so you have a warp point.
Head back down into the city and talk to Bludo – the older, bearded Goron. He’ll give you a new objective – a younger Goron called Yunobo has a history of doing battle with Divine Beast Vah Rudania, and he’s gone missing after heading to the Abandoned North Mine.
Looks like we need to help out… so let’s step to it.
Mounting a rescue: fetching Yunobo from the Abandoned Mine
The Abandoned Mine is even hotter than Goron City, and so in order to survive there you’re going to need two layers of protection.
The easiest way to get this protection is a combination of Fireproof Elixir (available for purchase from Gaile at the Foothill Stable next to Mo’a Keet Shrine) and a piece of the Goron-made Flamebreaker armor set. If you’ve got the cash you could always buy two parts of the flamebreaker set – that’ll be enough protection for you to walk around up there.
Head up the hill out of the city, past the Shae Mo’sah Shrine. Follow the path towards the Abandoned Mine. Oh, and – if those Octorocs with rocks on their head give you trouble, here’s a tip: stasis will beat their fast reflexes.
When you reach the Abandoned Mine chat to the Goron at the entrance. Beyond him, there are a lot of enemies with fire arrows – they’re tough.
Here’s the key here – Ice arrows are your friend in a big, big way. Anything ice, in fact – melee weapons too – will one-shot the enemies here by freezing them to death. The volcano’s heat will then make them shatter. That’s the way to go.
One way you can take our enemies in the abandoned mine is using the cannons scattered about. The way these work is pretty simple – drop a circular bomb into the hole to act as a fuse, and detonate to fire. The switch on the right of the cannon can be hit with weapons to make each cannon switch between two positions.
Abandoned Mine: Using the cannons
Any bright red rocks in this area can be shot and destroyed with the cannon. Some have loot underneath them, while the main one atop the hill is your objective. Yunobo has gotten trapped inside a mountain at a peak – the tallest place in the mine, obvious to find – and you’ll have to blast the red rocks away.
Several of the red rock deposits including the one trapping Yunobo will require you to detonate a cannon’s fuse when it’s mid-way between turning between positions, so look and aim carefully. If you want the optional loot be sure to check out every cannon, as each has a use.
When you rescue Yunobo he’s very grateful. The next step is to return to Goron City and the boss – there the boss will remind you of the Goron’s champion and push you onto the next phase of the quest: go meet Yunobo at the Bridge of Eldin.
Fight your way up the hill. Remember my tip about using stasis on Octoroks. When you reach Yunobo he’s surrounded – beat them to a pulp. Once that’s done, Link will be able to explain his plan.
Yunobo hops in the cannon. Put a bomb in, move the cannon, detonate… the Bridge of Eldin will lower. It’s time to board Vah Rudania. Prepare yourself for… well… some stealth. Uh-oh.
