When a fifteen-year-old girl is abducted by vampires, it’s up to U.S. Marshal Anita Blake to find her. And when she does, she’s faced with something she’s never seen before: a terrifyingly ordinary group of people—kids, grandparents, soccer moms—all recently turned and willing to die to avoid serving a master. And where there’s one martyr, there will be more…
But even vampires have monsters that they’re afraid of. And Anita is one of them…
I really enjoyed this story, but then I like most of the Anita stories. I know that many people don't like them recently, and that's fine. I do. I also understand many of the complaints that people say about the series, but most of those things really weren't around in this book. There is one extremely sex scene with Nicky that is a little too long for me (I don't remember how many chapters there was to this scene, though I guess they had sex twice). That was really the only thing that bothered me. My normal gripe is the talking too much therapy speak, especially in a sex scene. I mean really, who wants to have therapy while their having sex.
