Charlaine Harris
Charlaine Harris has been a published novelist for over thirty-five years. A native of the Mississippi Delta, she grew up in the middle of a cotton field. Charlaine lives in Texas now, and all of her children and grandchildren are within easy driving distance.Though her early output consisted largely of ghost stories, by the time she hit college (Rhodes, in Memphis) Charlaine was writing poetry and plays. After holding down some low-level jobs, her husband Hal gave her the opportunity to stay home and write. The resulting two stand-alones were published by Houghton Mifflin. After a child-producing sabbatical, Charlaine latched on to the trend of series, and soon had her own traditional mystery books about a Georgia librarian, Aurora Teagarden. Her first Teagarden, Real Murders, garnered an Agatha nomination.Soon Charlaine was looking for another challenge, and the result was the much darker Lily Bard series. The books, set in Shakespeare, Arkansas, feature a heroine who has survived a terrible attack and is learning to live with its consequences. When Charlaine began to realize that neither of those series was ever going to set the literary world on fire, she regrouped and decided to write the book she’d always wanted to write. Not a traditional mystery, nor yet pure science fiction or romance, Dead Until Dark broke genre boundaries to appeal to a wide audience of people who simply enjoy a good adventure. Each subsequent book about Sookie Stackhouse, telepathic Louisiana barmaid and friend to vampires, werewolves, and various other odd creatures, was very successful in many languages.The Harper Connelly books were written concurrently with the Sookie novels. Following the end of Sookie's recorded adventures, Charlaine wrote the "Midnight, Texas" books, which have become a television series, also. The Aurora Teagarden books have been adapted by Hallmark Movie & Mystery.Charlaine is a member of many professional organizations, an Episcopalian, and currently the lucky houseparent to two rescue dogs. She lives on a cliff overlooking the Brazos River.
Shakespeare's Champion (Lily Bard, #2)
Charlaine Harris
There's something rotten in Shakespeare... — Lily Bard was running from shattering memories when she moved to Shakespeare, Arkansas. Now cleaning houses pays her bills. Working out helps her heal. Still protecting her scars, she hides a hard body and impressive skill at martial arts under baggy sweats. And nobody knows how strong she is until racial violence has her looking behind closed doors for a killer -- doors to which a housecleaner might have the key.
When Lily uses her training in goju to help a black man jumped by white teens, she does it for justice...only to hear he's been abducted and beaten to death a few weeks later. Then a bodybuilder is killed at her gym. Both incidents jar Lily's need for security and refuge. Looking into closets, sweeping under rugs, she soon uncovers enough dirt to confirm that something sinister is growing in her adopted town. Getting involved could endanger her life. But Lily is seeing a new man and dreaming new dreams. And no one can make this strong woman run again.
Midnight Crossroad (Midnight, Texas, #1)
Charlaine Harris
From Charlaine Harris, the bestselling author who created Sookie Stackhouse and her world of Bon Temps, Louisiana, comes a darker locale - populated by more strangers than friends. But then, that’s how the locals prefer it...
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...
Grave Surprise (Harper Connelly, #2)
Charlaine Harris
When I was fifteen, I was struck by a bolt of lightning through an open window of the trailer where we lived...I recovered, mostly. I have a strange spiderweb pattern of red on my torso and right leg, which has episodes of weakness. Sometimes my right hand shakes. I have headaches. I have many fears. And I can find dead people. That was the part that interested the professor...At the request of anthropology professor Dr. Clyde Nunley, Harper Connelly and her stepbrother Tolliver come to Memphis to give a demonstration of Harper's unique talent. And what better place to have that demonstration than in a very old cemetery?Dr. Nunley doesn't bother to hide his skepticism, especially when Harper stands atop a grave and senses two bodies beneath her - one of a centuries-dead man and the other of a young girl, recently deceased. When the grave is opened, Harper's claim is proven true. The dead girl is Tabitha Morgenstern, an eleven-year-old abducted from Nashville two years previously - a child whom Harper had tried, and failed, to find. The coincidence raises suspicions about her among the police - so she and Tolliver undertake their own hunt to find the killer. They make a nocturnal visit to the cemetery, hoping that Harper can sense something further about the murder.And then, the next morning, a third dead body is found in the grave...

Maybe that’s why, when she comes across a naked vampire, she doesn’t just drive on by. He hasn’t got a clue who he is, but Sookie has: Eric looks just as scary and sexy – and dead – as ever. But now he has amnesia, he’s sweet, vulnerable, and in need of Sookie’s help – because whoever took his memory now wants his life.

La camarera del pequeño pueblo de Bon Temps, Sookie Stackhouse, ha tenido ya más de una experiencia con el mundo sobrenatural, aunque ahora éste merodea más cerca que nunca de su casa. Cuando Sookie ve que los ojos de su hermano Jason empiezan a cambiar, sabe que se va a transformar en pantera por primera vez, una transformación a la que se adapta con mucha mayor rapidez que otros cambiantes que conoce. Pero su preocupación se convierte en miedo cuando un francotirador fija su mira en la población cambiante local, y los hermanos pantera creen que Jason es el principal sospechosos. Sookie tiene hasta la próxima luna llena para descubrir al culpable de los ataques... Y también para organizar una lista de pretendientes que no deja de crecer.
El club de los muertos
Charlaine Harris
Solo hay un vampiro con el que Sookie Stackhouse se relaciona, y ese es Bill. Pero desde hace algún tiempo está algo distante: tanto como que se ha ido a otro estado. Eric,
su siniestro y atractivo jefe, cree saber dónde encontrarle. Sin pararse a pensarlo, Sookie pone rumbo a la ciudad de Jackson, Misisipi. Allí encontrará el Club de los Muertos, lugar de encuentro un tanto peligroso en el que la elitista sociedad vampírica acude a pasar el rato y engullir un poco de sangre. Cuando Sookie descubra que Bill la ha estado engañando con otra mujer, ya no estará segura de si querrá salvarle... o sacar punta a unas cuantas estacas.

Definitivamente muerta (Sookie Stackhouse, #6)

Quienquiera que sea, en definitiva es muy peligroso, y la vida de Sookie pende de un hilo…
Olhos de Pantera (Sookie Stackhouse, #5)
Charlaine Harris
Sookie Stackhouse nunca fez o típico papel de namoradinha indefesa. Primeiro, graças a seus poderes psíquicos, que lhe permitem saber o que se passa na mente das pessoas. Segundo, porque acha que já viveu o suficiente para conseguir se defender sozinha. E, terceiro, porque já não é mais namoradinha de ninguém — seu relacionamento com o vampiro Bill Compton acabou há algum tempo e os momentos ardentes com Eric, outro charmoso vampiro, não se converteram em namoro; isso sem mencionar que o caloroso lobisomem Alcide Herveaux não passa de um bom amigo... Quando percebe que a cor dos olhos de seu irmão Jason está mudando, Sookie se dá conta de que, semanas depois de ter sido atacado por um mutante, a primeira transformação dele em pantera está prestes a acontecer. Para alívio de Sookie, Jason aceita a nova condição de maneira bem tranquila. Mas as preocupações da telepata voltam a aparecer quando um misterioso atirador coloca em mira a população local de metamorfos, incluindo amigos de Sookie como seu chefe Sam Merlotte. Ela então precisará recorrer a Eric para solucionar os crimes — antes que o assassino a encontre. Em sua quinta aventura, a sensual garçonete Sookie Stackhouse terá de enfrentar as situações mais aterrorizantes e descobrirá que vampiros são apenas a ponta do iceberg — há muito mais à sua espera nesse estranho mundo onde humanos podem ser tão perigosos quanto criaturas sobrenaturais.

Charlaine Harris
Acclaimed New York Times Bestselling author Charlaine Harris, the writer of the Sookie Stackhouse series, has joined the Dynamite Entertainment family with the first book of her hit Harper Connelly series, Grave Sight. For the past five years, readers have been thrilled by the Harper Connelly series which follows a woman who has what you might call a strange job: she finds dead people. She can sense the final location of a person who's passed, and share their very last moment. The way Harper sees it, she's providing a service to the dead while bringing some closure to the living - but she's used to most people treating her like a blood-sucking leech. Traveling with her step-brother, Tolliver, as manager and sometime-bodyguard, she's become an expert at getting in, getting paid, and getting out fast. Because for the living it's always urgent - even if the dead can wait forever. At the age of 15, Harper Connelly was struck by lightning, an event that gave her the ability to find the dead and see how they died. Since then, Harper's scratched out a living selling her services to anyone with a checkbook. It's not the best life, but it beats the alternative - at least until Harper and her brother Tolliver roll into Sarne, Arkansas and find themselves embroiled in a murder mystery!

She calls herself Calexa Rose Dunhill—names taken from the grim surroundings where she awoke, bruised and bloody, with no memory of who she is, how she got there, or who left her for dead.
She has made the cemetery her home, living in a crypt and avoiding human contact. But Calexa can’t hide from the dead—and because she can see spirits, they can’t hide from her.
Then one night, Calexa spies a group of teenagers vandalizing a grave—and watches in horror as they commit murder. As the victim’s spirit rises from her body, it flows into Calexa, overwhelming her mind with visions and memories not her own.
Now Calexa must make a decision: continue to hide to protect herself—or come forward to bring justice to the sad spirit who has reached out to her for help...
