Synopsis

In a world where zombies roam freely, Anita Blake, a renowned expert, finds herself facing a terrifying new threat.

Anita Blake makes her living off of zombies—but these aren’t the kind she knows so well. These creatures hunt in daylight, and are as fast and strong as vampires. If they bite you, you become just like them.

Micah’s estranged father lies dying, rotting away inside from some strange ailment that has his doctors whispering about “zombie disease.”

What could this mysterious disease be? Where will it stop? Even Anita Blake doesn’t know.

Goodreads review by Lexxie on August 05, 2013

Okay, so I'm only 14% into this book (according to my kobo), 80 pages in, and I'm having some serious problems. I gave up on Anita a couple years ago. I, too, was one of the fans that got tired of the repetitive, gratuitous sex, but admittedly I stuck it out longer than most people. A couple months ag......more

Favorite Lines I am putting a couple because I couldn't make up my mind! “If you’re doing it right, love makes you more of who you are, not less,’ I said.” “Real ghosts are so much easier to deal with than the kind we carry around in our heads.
