Sookie Stackhouse enjoys her job as a cocktail waitress in Merlotte's, a small-town bar in small-town Bon Temps, deep in Louisiana. She's funny and pretty and, thanks to her grandmother, she's very well-mannered - but since not many people truly appreciate her ability to read their minds, the guys haven't exactly been beating down her door ...And then along came Bill, tall, dark and handsome - and Sookie couldn't 'hear' a word he was thinking. He was exactly the type of guy she'd been waiting all her life for. Of course, Bill had a disability of his own: fussy about his food, not into suntans, bit of a night person: yep, Bill was a vampire. But at least now Sookie nows there *are* guys she can date who won't worry about her catching them thinking about other women ...And that's going to make Sookie's life really interesting!
A collection of five short stories featuring Sookie Stackhouse. Very entertaining if you're a fan of the series - but it doesn't bring anything new to it if you're not. There is one featuring Amelia, one with Cataliades, one with the fairies, one with Eric and one with some slight steaminess featuring an unknown guy. A Touch of Dead has a little bit of everything and is great reading when you're travelling.
