But as soon as she arrives in Branson, Missouri, to do the deed, the job gets more interesting. 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. 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. 1098613 book 1995 Bloody Bones (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, #5) total:6611|5:203|4:185|3:134|2:31|1:8| 6611 26307 8405 159 1111640 0441003745 9780441003747 89 4 3.98 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1227642169m/1111640.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1111640.Bloody_Bones_Anita_Blake_Vampire_Hunter_5_ 3 1 false Sun Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 1996 Tue Nov 25 13:06:07 -0800 2008 Thu Jul 09 08:15:31 -0700 2009 Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series, which takes as its premise the idea that vampires, werewolves, and other preternatural creatures are an accepted reality, and have been granted equal rights in the United States, Bloody Bones follows its heroi...more...]]> 30241 0425205673 9780425205679 6018 136 3.98 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1168063593m/30241.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/30241.Bloody_Bones_Anita_Blake_Vampire_Hunter_5_ 2 1 false Sat Apr 12 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Mon Jan 28 00:16:07 -0800 2008 Thu Apr 17 14:25:26 -0700 2008
