She lives with the vampire Lemuel, but no one knows what she does they only know that she’s beautiful and dangerous. Even in a town full of secretive people, Olivia Charity is an enigma. There is no such thing as bad publicity, except in Midnight, Texas, where the residents like to keep to themselves.

Now the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Sookie Stackhouse novels returns to the one-traffic-light town you see only when you’re on the way to someplace else… In Midnight Crossroad, Charlaine Harris “capture the same magic as the world of Bon Temps, Louisiana, and it to another level” ( Houston Press). Stop at the one traffic light in town, and everything looks normal. And there’s new resident Manfred Bernardo, who thinks he’s found the perfect place to work in private (and who has secrets of his own). There’s a diner (people who are just passing through tend not to linger). There’s a pawnshop (someone lives in the basement and is seen only at night). It’s a pretty standard dried-up western town. Welcome to Midnight, Texas, a town with many boarded-up windows and few full-time inhabitants, located at the crossing of Witch Light Road and Davy Road.

But then, that’s how the locals prefer it… From Charlaine Harris, the bestselling author who created Sookie Stackhouse and her world of Bon Temps, Louisiana, comes a darker locale-populated by more strangers than friends.
