Publisher Comments:

The new Sookie Stackhouse novel finds the supernaturally gifted cocktail waitress in New Orleans where she has to deal with the legacy of one of her own family and a host of potentially dangerous characters.

Review:

"In bestseller Harris's perky sixth Southern Vampire novel to star Sookie Stackhouse (after 2005's Dead as a Doornail), the telepathic waitress of Bon Temps, La., is off to (pre-hurricane) New Orleans to close out her dead cousin Hadley's apartment. Hadley's death six weeks earlier had been unexpected, since, as a vampire, she was already dead. Still, she'd led a lively existence as the main squeeze of the Queen of Louisiana, an omnisexual vampire, whose political marriage to the King of Arkansas occurred the night before Hadley's demise. Sookie and Amelia Broadway, Hadley's landlady and a pretty cool witch, immediately discover a mess of trouble left behind in Hadley's closet, and Sookie's soon neck-deep in even more. Though most of the intrigue doesn't come till halfway through, Harris keeps the action going nonstop in this bubbly brew of supernatural spice and whimsical whodunit that's more fun than a barrel of beignets. Alan Ball, the creator of HBO's Six Feet Under, plans to shoot a TV pilot based on the series later this year. 12-city author tour. (May)" Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)

About the Author

You can't help but fall in love with the characters (Quinn you have stolen my heart)! Charlaine outdoes herself with each successive book!

This is the latest installment of the Southern Vampire series, a really fun set of reads. After reading the first, Dead Until Dark, I went out and bought the next 5, read them all in about two weeks. Great characters and plots that you can actually chew on. If you enjoy vampire fiction, definately check these books out.
