In Harris's (
Deadlocked) final installment in her series about Louisiana waitress and telepath Sookie Stackhouse, a murder hits close to home for the town of Bon Temps. When Sookie falls under suspicion, old friends—and several enemies—come out of the woodwork. Many characters return from earlier titles, and as a result the story feels crowded, while some fan-favorite vamps get pushed to the side. Longtime fans of the series will either love or hate the way Harris ties up loose ends, but they will all want to find out what happens to Sookie. Narrator Johanna Parker channels Sookie's down-home drawl perfectly.
VERDICT Recommended for paranormal fiction readers and fans of the series in particular. [The Ace hc was a New York Times best seller.—Ed.]
