Definitely Dead [Paperback] Harris, Charlaine

Sookie Stackhouse inherits a house in New Orleans from a cousin she barely knew — which should be a nice surprise, except the cousin was murdered, vampires are staking claims on the property, and Sookie's ex, the very dangerous and very attractive vampire Bill, is back in her life. As she digs into her cousin's death, she's pulled into vampire politics, Were drama, and the kind of supernatural mess that makes waitressing in Bon Temps look peaceful. Harris writes Sookie with a pitch-perfect mix of Southern charm and steel spine, and this sixth book in the series delivers the twisty plots and darkly funny romance the fans came in for. If you liked the HBO series, the books hit harder and move faster.
