78. Bloody Bones

by Laurell K. Hamilton (384 pages)

Book 5 in the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter Novels

Anita gets a contract for a job raising an entire cemetery at the site of a potential new posh hotel. The surrounding neighborhood has...some problems though. And as Jean-Claude's marked human she's unwittingly step on the toes of the local vampire group. Anita gets in over head and she calls in Jean-Claude to help. The walls start to come tumbling down between Jean-Claude and Anita.

Things steam up even more. The atmosphere is full of sexual tension and it's obvious Anita has no idea how to handle it. It's well written but I didn't really buy the new setting. Too much going on for the humans to be playing dumb.
