But even someone who deals with death on a daily basis can be unnerved by its power. Hamilton's 'New York Times' bestselling novels, Anita Blake, vampire hunter and animator, takes a bite out of crime-of the supernatural kind. But I hadn't lived this long assuming the best. Of course, maybe there was just the one newly dead vampire to deal with.

'Come morning, some of us would be alive and some of us wouldn't. Two jobs pop up that make even Anita doubt her own capabilities: raising an entire graveyard of two-hundred-year-old corpses and finding out what happened to three Missouri teenagers-slaughtered in a way she has never seen before. Hamilton's New York Times bestselling series, vampire hunter and animator Anita Blake sinks her teeth into her work. It didn’t take a degree in preternatural studies to figure out that something was very wrong in and around Branson, Missouri. Then there were the three dead teenagers in the woods, slaughtered in a way I had never seen before.Īnd then they found the dead girl, drained of blood and left in her bed. I’d been hired to raise them to settle a dispute over who owned the land they were buried in. “First, there were the dead in the graveyard – two-hundred years dead. As always, Anita prevails over the undead, keeping Jean-Claude at arm’s length, clearing the cemetery land of an ancient enchantment, and nailing the vampiric killer in one fell swoop.”

A psychotic sword-wielding vampire starts committing multiple murders in the area, and Anita must call on Jean-Claude, her powerful fanged suitor, for help. But as soon as she arrives in Branson, Missouri, to do the deed, the job gets more interesting. “When Anita Blake’s boss at Animators, Inc., informs her that she’s expected to raise 300-year-old zombies from a field of jumbled bones just to settle a land dispute, she’s understandably annoyed. There are several different synopsis versions for this book. Patrick's Day falls on January and spring comes very early that year, or the five weeks is a mistake caused by the fact that the epilogue of The Lunatic Cafe reaches into February. In contradiction to that Anita claims she'd agreed to date Jean-Claude five weeks ago, even if that happened well before Christmas. Unless Anitaverse has moved things around, that means the events of this book events happen about three months after the main events of the previous Anita Blake novel, The Lunatic Cafe. Bloody Bones begins on Saint Patrick's Day, which is traditionally held on 17 March.
