*THIS IS A BOOK THREE! WHICH MEANS THERE WILL BE SPOILERS FOR BOOK 1 IF YOU HAVEN'T READ IT YET*

This is the third book in the Anita Blake series and boy oh boy is it a good one! This book brings the vampires back to the forefront and Edward ♥ makes an appearance as well. This book also introduces a new major player in Anita's world as she gets sucked further into Jean Claude's clutches.

Working for the police to apprehend and execute the vampires that have been killing people around town, Anita is stuck between a rock and a hard place. She has the marks tying her to Jean Claude and his motley crew of vampires, yet her morals tell her she should just be rid of him already. Then there's a new gang of vampers looking to depose Jean Claude, as word has reached various vampires' ears on how Jean Claude cannot control his own human servant. Throw into the mix a giant snake, a vampire hate group, and a million year old vampire. Yes, one millions years old.

This book is incredibly action packed with new things thrown at you every five seconds and begins to set up the rest of the series.
