Dead as a Doornail by Charlaine Harris
Dead as a Doornail is the latest in the Southern Vampire series. I don't generally go for vampire books (Ann Rice = Booooring after the first two) but the Sookie Stackhouse series is hilarious and sexy. Where else will you find out the mystery of Bubba, the botched vampire conversion of a once proud King and werepeople who turn into lovable dogs?
The mystery is never easy but isn't popped out as a huge surprise either. You work your way into understanding of what's going on. Sookies relationships with vampires, werepeople, and plain old human men are logical and emotional and seem natural to Sookie and the story.
Ok, in this book someone is shooting at shapeshifters and Sookie is in the middle of multiple investigations and a werepeople political incident.
