In this book, they are taken to Sarne, Arkansas to figure out whether a crime that just occurred was, in fact, a murder/suicide, as the police seem to think. At times, their work leads them into solving mysteries while, at other times, they just help bring closure to the living. She and her stepbrother, Tolliver, travel around helping people figure out what happened to their loved ones and in what manner they died. Harper can sense the dead, which enables her to find dead bodies and figure out how the person died. Only the protagonist, Harper Connelly, has supernatural powers, which she gained from being struck by lightning when she was a teenager. Whereas the Sookie Stackhouse books feature a protagonist who can read people's minds, along with a host of other supernatural creatures, the Harper Connelly mysteries are a little more grounded in reality. Grave Sight is the first of the Harper Connelly mysteries by Charlaine Harris, the author of the Sookie Stackhouse series, which has been made into the TV series, True Blood.
