The action begins about a third of the way through when a young woman's body is found in Eric's front yard and Mustapha goes missing. I thought the book would pick up at that point but, alas, no. There are references to these happenings but most of the story returns to remembrance of things in earlier books and the day to day bits of Sookie's life.

Once a Witch by Carolyn MacCull 3. After moving into a house where the previous tenants, the Juliuses, had disappeared six years earlier, Roe decides to solve the case. Her investigation proffers some potentially dangerous secrets regarding the Juliuses-and her husband. What was Regina running from? Why was her husband murdered? The answers are hidden back in Ohio, and that's just where Aurora goes, husband, baby and all.
But Regina's secrets are very dangerous and Aurora walks right into them - much to her own peril. Worldwide Mystery has enjoyed great success with the Aurora Teagarden mystery series by Charlaine Harris and is pleased to publish this fifth title. This prolific mystery writer is also well-known for her Shakespeare, Arkansas mysteries featuring Lily Bard. All things considered, however, there wasn't anything to complain about.
Then Jane Engle died. Aurora and Jane had been friends - not particularly close friends, but they'd both been members of the Real Murder Society and on occasion had shared tea, as well as an interest in crime. So Aurora was surprised to discover that she was named in Jane's will as the heir to her home and some money. But her first showing is murder, when the elegant master bedroom reveals the body of a real-estate broker.
When a second body appears at her next showing, Roe realizes that her new career may suddenly come to a dead end. Though a small town at heart, Lawrenceton, Georgia, has its dark side and crime buffs. One of whom is librarian Aurora "Roe" Teagarden, a member of the Real Murders Club, which meets once a month to analyze famous cases.
It's a harmless pastime until the night she finds a member killed in a manner that eerily resembles the crime the club was about to discuss. And as other brutal "copycat" killings follow, Roe will have to uncover the person behind the terrifying game, one that casts all the members of Real Murders, herself included, as prime suspects, or potential victims. But Roe is also coping with a burgeoning romantic relationship as well as the sudden appearance of her teenaged half brother.
All in all, it's a lot for one woman to have on her plate, even one as together as Roe. Now she's off to Mississippi to mingle with the underworld at Club Dead-a little haunt where the vampire elite go to chill out. But when she finally finds Bill-caught in an act of betrayal-she's not sure whether to save him And after being betrayed by her longtime vampire love, Sookie must not only deal with a new man in her life-the shapeshifter Quinn-but also contend with the long-planned vampire summit.
When she meets Bill, Sookie can't hear a word he's thinking. He's the type of guy she's waited for all of her life, but he has a disability, too--he's a vampire with a bad reputation. When one of Sookie's coworkers is killed, she fears she's next. Without him, it would feel. By now we have all read the other books! Maybe all the sex moved onto the big screen and swore to never return to the written world.
The product placement for State Farm was a little obvious, too. Harrsi Ball is the creator of True Blood. The downpour had washed everything, cooled the air, and renewed the green of the grass and the trees. Sookie, most likely, with grow with the idea of loving Sam, and have a child.

Why else would you incorporate Eric if you planned to end with Sam? Sookie is barely tolerable and she used to be a fun and interesting character.
