Sookie Stackhouse finds it easy to turn down the request of
former barmaid Arlene when she wants her job back at Merlotte’s. After all, Arlene tried to have Sookie
killed. But her relationship with Eric
Northman is not so clearcut. He and his
vampires are keeping their distance…and a cold silence. And when Sookie learns the reason why, she
is devastated.
Then a shocking murder rocks Bon Temps, and Sookie is
arrested for the crime.
But the evidence against Sookie is weak, and she makes
bail. Investigating the killing, she’ll
learn that what passes for truth in Bon Temps is only a convenient lie. What passes for justice is more spilled blood. And what passes for love is never enough…
3/5 stars (liked it)
I have not been too happy
with the last couple of books, I feel like the stories have gotten dragged
out. So in a way I was glad that this
book concluded Sookie’s story. Although
I thought Charlaine Harris tried too hard to bring back old characters and push
away certain characters. I think maybe
Sookie’s story should have ended a couple of books ago. Overall I think Sookie made the right
decision in who she ended up with, although why it took her so long to realize
is crazy. Arlene’s killer is found and
I really wasn’t too surprised who was behind it, although seems rather
elaborate and eve Sookie points it out.
And as always I love the art on the cover.
