My name is Anita Blake and I'm no stranger to killing monsters. But this time, it's personal. The wedding of the century is almost here. My wedding – to Jean-Claude, the new vampire king of America. When the St. Louis police summon me to a brutal murder scene linked to a nationwide slaughter of vampires and humans, I know there is more than just a killer to catch.

It’s complicated. Two years ago, he broke my heart when he left me to do his father’s bidding. After months of crying, I finally accepted he was gone and wasn’t going to look back. That maybe he’d never loved me at all. I never wanted to see Luca again. Now, a cruel twist of fate has signed me over to him in a heartless deal. I’m his. He thinks he did me a favor, but I feel like I’ve been given a death sentence. He doesn't want to get married because he still loves me. No, he did it for money. More power.

My name is Anita Blake. I'm a vampire hunter and necromancer, and I'm about to learn that evil is in the eye of the beholder. I've never seen Damian, my vampire servant, so vulnerable.

The ruthless vampire who created him might be losing control, allowing rogue vampires to run wild and break one of their kind's few strict taboos.

Rafael, king of the wererats, must fight to the death to defend his crown. He wants Anita Blake, one of his closest allies, with him as he faces an opponent unlike any he's faced before.

Among his enemies, a new challenger has arisen who is younger, hungrier, and has dark secrets that could destroy both the wererats and the vampires.

This is still safe. He can’t reach me. He can’t touch me. And I absolutely do not want him to, either. If I keep telling myself this often enough, it’ll become true, right? While exchanging letters with a convicted felon for my court-mandated community service (don’t ask), I find myself inconveniently intrigued by my prison pen pal. Sasha seems to understand me better than anyone else has recently, but I’m not an idiot. He’s serving a life sentence, so getting too caught up in this when realistically, it has zero future, is out of the question. Obviously. Sasha
