Welcome to Midnight, Texas, a town with many boarded-up windows and few full-time inhabitants, located at the crossing of Witch Light Road and Davy Road. It's a pretty standard dried-up western town.
There's a pawnshop (someone lives in the basement and is seen only at night). There's a diner (people who are just passing through tend not to linger). And there's new resident Manfred Bernardo, who thinks he's found the perfect place to work in private (and who has secrets of his own).
Stop at the one traffic light in town, and everything looks normal. Stay awhile, and learn the truth...
3/5 stars (liked it)
I was a big fan of the Sookie Stackhouse books and thought I would try another one of her series. Plus this is a trilogy so very doable. I liked this first book. We don't find out if everyone is human or otherwise but we find out about some. My favorite character has to be Mr. Snuggly, the cat that talks. He is just a cat and he can talk and all he cares about is himself and whether he will get his food and a comfy place to lay. He's so funny! This book revolves around the murder of Audrey, Bobo's girlfriend (the owner of the Pawnshop). The killer really surprised me.
