Sookie Stackhouse is a small-time cocktail waitress in small-town Louisiana. She''s quiet, keeps to herself, and doesn''t get out much - not because she''s not pretty, she''s a very cute bubbly blonde, or not interested in a social life - she really is ... but Sookie''s got a bit of a disability. She can read minds. And that doesn''t make her too dateable.
And then along comes Bill: he''s tall, he''s dark and he''s handsome - and Sookie can''t ''hear'' a word he''s thinking. He''s exactly the type of guy she''s been waiting all her life for. But Bill has a disability of his own: he''s fussy about his food, he doesn''t like suntans and he''s never around during the day ...
Yep, Bill''s a vampire. Worse than that, he hangs with a seriously creepy crowd, with a reputation for trouble - of the murderous kind.
And then one of Sookie''s colleagues at the bar is killed, and it''s beginning to look like Sookie might be the next victim ...
