From Charlaine Harris, the #1 New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author behind HBO's hit series True Blood and NBC's Midnight, Texas, the third in a series that proves death never takes a holiday... For Lily Bard, the idea of "going home for Christmas" summons nothing but dread. She wants to stay in her real home in Shakespeare, Arkansas, where her friendships are blooming, nobody dares mess with her, and her new private-eye boyfriend could make it a very cozy holiday indeed. Back in Bartley, all people see when they look at Lily is a victim. But her sister is getting married, and Lily's determined to give her family what they want. She'll be present, be pleasant, and let her sister have the spotlight. Or so she thinks, until she discovers her boyfriend in town on a case, chasing a lead that could blow up the whole celebration. One of the little girls in Bartley isn't who she thinks she is. And one of the town's respectable parents is a cold-blooded kidnapper ready to kill to hide their secrets. For her sister--and her sister's eight-year-old stepdaughter-to-be--Lily will find the truth. Even if it means she'll never go home again...

From Charlaine Harris, the #1 New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author behind HBO's hit series True Blood and NBC's Midnight, Texas, the first in a series of mysteries that hits as hard as its heroine... Lily Bard has no illusions about her little town being safe, or peaceful, or full of goodness. Shakespeare, Arkansas, was nothing but a name on a map when she moved here. But Lily has kept her head down in Shakespeare for four years: cleaned houses, blocked unwelcome memories, and honed her body into a weapon with goju karate. It's as long as she's lasted anywhere since the nightmare that changed her life, and she's willing to dust around the skeletons in her neighbors' closets--provided they mind their business about her past, too. But when a dead body is dumped practically in her front yard, she can't look away and leave it to innocents to find. And as the investigation creeps closer to Lily, her clients, and the secrets they all keep, she knows her hard-fought peace is in danger. She's living in close quarters with a murderer. The police are sniffing around her history. And once again, all eyes are on Lily Bard. She could leave town, and give up on the home she's begun to make. Or she could stay, and root out the killer herself...

When Lily Bard agrees to open the gym for her sometime-boyfriend, it's a sign of something she's rejected for years, connection. Trust. The beginnings of being part of a community. And when she finds the corpse of a murdered bodybuilder waiting for her, it's a sign she doesn't know nearly as much about the home she's chosen as she thought. Shakespeare, Arkansas has seen three unsolved, seemingly unconnected murders in two months, and the town is tense with suspicion and rage. Lily's contact on the police force develops an ulterior agenda. An anonymous white supremacist group is papering cars and threatening worse to come. And there's a new man in town, someone whose face reminds Lily of the darkest time in her past...Shakespeare needs answers, and Lily can't rest until she has them. But there's no telling how deep the rot spreads. And if she can't trust anyone, she'll be facing it down alone.--Publisher description.

Then his sinister and sexy boss Eric Northman tells Sookie where she might find him. Next thing she knows, she's off to Jackson, Mississippi, to mingle with the under-underworld at Club Dead, a dangerous little haunt where the elite of vampire society can go to chill out and suck down some Type-O.

ÅSeducir o ser seducido? ÅMorder... o ser mordido? Una mala racha. Asâi es como podrâia llamarse a lo que estâa viviendo Sookie. Primero, su compaänero de trabajo es asesinado y a nadie parece importarle. Luego se encuentra cara a cara con una criatura sobrenatural y casi muere en el ataque. Afortunadamente los vampiros le salvaron la vida, asâi que cuando le piden que busque a uno de ellos, desaparecido en Dallas, Sookie no lo duda ni un momento: les debe un favor. Se supone que el trabajo es fâacil: debe entrevistar a ciertos humanos involucrados en la desapariciâon. Solo hay una condiciâon, los vampiros deben prometer comportarse y dejar que los humanos salgan ilesos. Algo mâas fâacil de decir que de hacer. Todo lo que se necesita es un pequeäno error para que las cosas se vuelvan mortales...
