Anita Blake may be small and young, but vampires call her the Executioner. Anita is a necromancer and vampire hunter in a time when vampires are protected by law—as long as they don't get too nasty. Now someone's killing innocent vampires and Anita agrees—with a bit of vampiric arm-twisting—to help figure out who and why.
Trust is a luxury Anita can't afford when her allies aren't human. The city's most powerful vampire, Nikolaos, is 1,000 years old and looks like a 10-year-old girl. The second most powerful vampire, Jean-Claude, is interested in more than just Anita's professional talents, but the feisty necromancer isn't playing along—yet. This popular series has a wild energy and humor, and some very appealing characters—both dead and alive.

i never not totally not like a book. i read this one and found myself putting it down and reading other books, and then getting back to it. i just wasn't that into the book. And i love paranomal novels but this one i was really disapointed in.it started like there was another book previous to this one. it was just confusing at some stages.edit: I have read this 3 times now and my opinion stays the same. but don't give up on the series after this book. it does get better.
