DAY SHIFT, the second novel in Charlaine Harris‘s Midnight Texas series, is published tomorrow! The highly-anticipated sequel to MIDNIGHT CROSSROAD, it is published in the UK by Gollancz, in both hardcover and audiobook. Here’s the synopsis…

Welcome to Midnight, Texas. 

It’s a quiet little town, perched at the junction between Davy Road and Witch Light Road, and it’s easy to miss. With its boarded-up windows, single traffic light and sleepy air, there’s nothing special about Midnight … which is exactly how the residents like it.

So when the news comes that a new owner plans to renovate the run-down, abandoned old hotel in town, it’s not met with pleasure. Who would want to come to Midnight, with its handful of shops, the Home Cookin diner, and quiet residents — and why? 

But there are bigger problems in the air. When Manfred Bernado, the newest resident in town, is swept up in a deadly investigation suddenly the hotel and its residents are the least of the towns concern. The police, lawyers and journalists are all headed to Midnight, and it’s the worst possible moment…

Charlaine Harris is also the author of the phenomenally popular Sookie Steakhouse series, which as adapted by HBO into the True Blood TV series — this series is also published in the UK by Gollancz.
