Sookie Book 12 Is Finished, Title Chosen Says Charlaine Harris

Charlaine Harris updated her Facebook page today with the news that the 12th book in the Sookie Stackhouse novels is finished and off to her editors. She also shared the title of the book:

What a relief to send DEADLOCKED into my editor(s). Now I can rest easy for a little while, until I get the revisions back. A writer’s dream — to have your editor tell you there’s not a single change necessary . . .

Anyone care to speculate on the meaning of the title? Deadlocked will be available in bookstores in May 2012.
