Part of Sookie Stackhouse, book 3

Sookie Stackhouse has always struggled with dating. Her telepathic abilities make most men uncomfortable, though vampires prove immune to her mind reading powers. She's been involved with vampire Bill Compton, but lately he's grown distant and disappeared to another state entirely. His boss Eric believes he knows Bill's location and sends Sookie to Jackson, Mississippi. Her mission takes her to Club Dead, a supernatural nightclub where vampires gather to relax and feed on blood. The venue serves as a haven for the secretive vampire community. When Sookie finally locates Bill, she discovers he's in serious danger and has committed a devastating betrayal. She faces an impossible choice between saving the man she loves or abandoning him to his fate. The discovery forces her to question everything she believed about their relationship.
