Domino Riley, the tough streetwise lieutenant of an LA gang, is wise to the ways of sorcery. She has the juice to help wipe out the bad and the unwanted. But there is a problem growing, zombies. Lots of zombies that still have the use of their brains. Some of them don't even realize they are dead, due to the brain activity and the fact that they still have a soul. Only Xolos can release the soul and they seem to be missing.

Domino needs to fine these Xolos, but where should she start? The Between world seems to be the answer, but a very malicious spirit has stopped souls from winning any peace. This spirit has opened a portal and is letting demons into the mortal world. Domino has more problems than she knows what to do with. Will she be able to find the answer before the zombies take over LA? As the clock ticks, she also has to deal with Adan Rashan, the boss's son, someone she might have feelings for.

As Domino embarks on her journey, so do you. It's all action from the start, straight to the end. This book is very entertaining, with twists and turns aplenty. I love the wise ass humour. I find that you can actually see some of the scenes in your mind. Some chapters creeped me right out, with the hairs standing up on my arms. Overall Skeleton Crew is great fun and spooky, with a little bit of the gruesome.
