Dead and Gone by Charlaine Harris

Dead and Gone by Charlaine Harris is a dark and suspenseful paranormal mystery from the bestselling Sookie Stackhouse series. Set in Bon Temps, Louisiana, the story finds Sookie living in a world where vampires are already known—but weres and shapeshifters have remained hidden until now.

When the weres and shifters finally reveal themselves to ordinary humans, the announcement seems to go smoothly at first. But when the mutilated body of a were-panther is discovered near the bar where Sookie works, she is drawn into a dangerous investigation involving humans, supernatural beings, and secrets close to home. As tensions rise, an even older and more powerful race prepares for war, leaving Sookie caught in the middle.

A strong choice for readers of paranormal mystery, urban fantasy, supernatural suspense, and fans of the Sookie Stackhouse novels.
