Sweet JB fits the bill nicely, and they marry, soon welcoming twins Robert Thornton du Rone and Sara Sookie du Rone.

While tearing down a wall in the du Rones’ bungalow, JB and Sam discover a hammer hidden inside and identify it as the weapon used in the murder of Isaiah Wechsler, who lived in the house next door in the 1930s. The murderer’s spirit is disturbed, casting a pall over the house until his bones are uncovered and identified with the help of Sookie and the du Rones’ nanny, Quiana Wong, who is a psychic. The spirit rests when the bones are reinterred in Sookie’s family plot. JB returns the group to normalcy by confirming plans to finish the work in the house.

du Rone, Tara Thornton:
Sookie’s longtime friend Tara overcomes a tough childhood to own her own business, a clothing store called Tara’s Togs.

She attends the local orgies at his urging, and it is only dumb luck that keeps her alive when Callisto arrives. Her next lover, vampire Franklin Mott, soon passes her to another vampire as payment for a debt. Sookie extricates her from that situation, and Tara eventually recognizes a good man right in front of her in her old high school friend JB du Rone. JB’s simplistic approach to life appeals to Tara, and they marry. When she finds out she is pregnant, Tara vows to give her baby all the love and support that she lacked as a child. To the surprise of Tara, JB, and their doctor, Tara discovers she is pregnant with twins, and soon safely delivers Robert Thornton du Rone and Sara Sookie du Rone.

Living in the old Summerlin bungalow that she purchased a few years ago, Tara and JB decide to renovate to make room for the babies, and they enlist Sookie and Sam to help. When an old hammer is found concealed in a wall, they realize that it was used in the 1930s murder of neighbor Isaiah Wechsler. By unearthing the hammer, they inadvertently unleash the spirit of the murderer. The babies’ nanny, Quiana Wong, reveals that she is a psychic, and with Sookie’s help they are able to identify the murderer as the youngest son of the family that built the house, the Summerlins. He committed suicide after the murder and was secretly buried in the yard by his parents. His bones are taken to Sookie’s family plot and buried, putting the spirit to rest.

Ectoplasmic reconstruction:
A magical method of viewing past events involving people or other living creatures, it is rarely attempted because of the amount of time, energy, and skill required by the witches involved. Amelia Broadway successfully performs the ritual twice, once with three other witches after Hadley’s death and once with Octavia after Maria-Star’s death. The number of witches needed depends on the amount of area covered by the reconstruction, and the witches must recite the chants in unison, building the power and concentrating to keep the visual going. During the reconstruction, the subject appears translucent, with surrounding objects appearing only when touched by the subject. (DD, FDTW)
