Waiting on Wednesday - Dead in the Family by Charlaine Harris

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that you're eagerly anticipating.

Released May 10, 2010

One thing I like about the way the Southern Vampire Series (AKA Sookie Stackhouse Series) is released is that you know that until Charlaine Harris is finished with the series, the newest book will be out in May. The down side is the waiting a year and Sookie's outdated wardrobe.

From Amazon:

After enduring torture and the loss of loved ones during the brief but deadly Faery War, Sookie Stackhouse is hurt and she's angry. Just about the only bright spot in her life is the love she thinks she feels for vampire Eric Northman. But he's under scrutiny by the new Vampire King because of their relationship. And as the political implications of the Shifters coming out are beginning to be felt, Sookie's connection to the Shreveport pack draws her into the debate. Worst of all, though the door to Faery has been closed, there are still some Fae on the human side-and one of them is angry at Sookie. Very, very angry...
