A vampire who firstfeaturesin Stephenie Meyer's bestselling novelEclipsebut dies shortlyafterwardsis beingresurrectedby the bestselling Mormon author in her first new book for two years.

Meyer'snovellaThe Short Second Life of Bree Tanner will be told from the perspective of newborn vampire Bree, who is bitten by the vampire Victoria as she creates an army to kill her enemies Bella Swan and the"vegetarian"vampire family the Cullens. Bree dies shortly after she is introduced in Eclipse, the third in Meyer's bestsellingTwilightseries about the love between humanteenagerBella and handsome vampire Edward Cullen.

"This has been a surprise to me, too," Meyer said. "The reason why it's a surprise was that I neverintendedto publish this story as astandalonebook. I began this story a long time ago - before Twilight was evenreleased. Back then I was just editing Eclipse, and in the thick of my vampire world. I was thinking a lot about the newborns, imagining their side of the story, and one thing led to another. I started writing from Bree's perspective about those final days, and what it was like to be a newborn."

Life of Bree Tanner, a novella, will now be published on 5 June by Little BrownimprintAtom at £11.99. The book will also beavailablefor free between 7 June and 5 July on the website.

The character of Bree will also feature in the film version of Eclipse. The film's director, David Slade, and the actor who plays Bree in the film have both seendraftsof the novella already. Meyer, whoscrappedthe finalepisodein her Twilight series, Midnight Sun, after a draftleakedonline, is determined to keep this latest novellaconfidentialuntil publication.
