Nytårsnat kører Sookie hjem fra arbejde og ser en nøgen mand løbe langs vejen i mørket og kulden. Det viser sig, at den stakkels mand ikke har det fjerneste begreb om, hvem han er.

Eric er venlig, blid - og meget bange; den som fjernede hans hukommelse, er nu ude efter hans liv.

Byen Bon Temps i Louisiana står til at blive rystet af chokerende nyt fra den overnaturlige verden: Lige som vampyrerne gjorde det før dem, er varskabningerne - mennesker med evnen til at transformere sig om til dyr - nu klar til at afsløre dem selv for resten af verden. Sookie Stackhouse, der er bartender og kan høre de levende menneskers tanker, er bekymret over afsløringen, og det har hun god grund til, når man tænker på, hvordan indbyggerne i den lille by foragter alle med overnaturlige evner, inklusiv Sookie.

Sokkie har ikke mange familiemedlemmer tilbage, hvorfor hun hader at miste endnu et, og af alle de tilbageværende forventede hun bestemt ikke, at det ville være hende kusine Hadley - som teknisk set allerede var død - der ville være den næste. Hadley var ledsager til New Orleans vampyrdronning, og efterlader Sookie en arv. En arv som ikke er helt risikoløs, da der er flere som ikke er interesseret i, at Sookie graver for meget i Hadleys fortid - eller i hendes ejendele.

Sookie har en uforbederlig evne til at befinde sig midt i alverdens farlige situationer, og hun er derfor også vidne til nedbrændingen af Merlotte's, hvor hun arbejder som servitrice. Da Sam Merlotte er kendt for at være en hamskifter, falder mistanken straks på anti-skifterne i området. Sookie har andre teorier, men hendes opmærksomhed bliver afledt, da hun finder ud af, at hendes elsker, Eric, og hans "barn" planlægger at slå deres vampyrleder ihjel.
