This is the fourth Sookie Stackhouse book. Sookie is a telepathic waitress in a small town - everyone knows what she can do, but no one really wants to think about it very much. Sookie is now very aware of the many different types of magical creatures living in and around her town. In this book, Eric, a vampire she knows, turns up with amnesia. A group of witches have come to the town, and one of them cursed Eric because he didn't do what she wanted. Now the witches are looking for him, and Sookie is stuck caring for him while she tries to restore his memory and figure out what's going on before she ends up dead. Protecting herself and her friends will involve working with both the vampires and the werewolves. Unfortunately, the witches also have shapeshifters in their ranks, so everyone has to be doubly careful. | ||
