Grace Coffin and the Undertakers

Southwest Harbor, Maine is the perfect coastal village, complete with Goth Rock-playing teens, zealous school administrators, and Undead denizens. As Grace and Oliver pursue their dream to start a band, their songs attract the attention of the Christian Right and the Undead Left, embroiling them in a sinister plot to bring down the veil between the living and the dead. Their music also gets them suspended from school just before graduation and lands Grace in the hospital, so you know it has to be good. Grace’s Undead neighbor Cormac journeys to Mount Hope, Bangor’s historic cemetery, to collect his wife’s bones. He finds much more than he bargained for, enduring a grueling gauntlet of trials in order to return home in time to help his friends survive the Maine Monster Mash, a Halloween battle of Goth Rock bands. In the second book of the Grace Coffin series, Winter Fox’s unlikely heroes help each other over the hurdles presented by life (and death) with humor, a little luck, and a few drops of blood. We discover the finer qualities of ghoul milk, how Grace feels about girl crushes and polyamory, and the power of rock and roll to save the world.
