Book 64: Shakespeare's Champion

Another Charlaine Harris novel starring Lily Bard. In Shakespeare's Champion, a bodybuilder is murdered right before the competition. Lily still just wants to mind her own business, but she gets involved in solving the crime again.

She's tough, unaccomodating, honest, and doesn't have patience to waste on social niceties. She is a lot of fun.

Meanwhile, this novel's crime is related to some white supremacists who want to revive the old days when whites could kill blacks and get away with it.

It's an interesting mix of a light-hearted style with serious subject matter. As always, Harris makes great characters and interesting plotlines.
