Synopsis

For the first time in trade paperback: the fifth novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling series from Laurell K. Hamilton.

When Branson, Missouri, is hit with a death wave 'four unsolved murders' it doesn't take an expert to realize that all is not well. But luckily for the locals, Anita Blake is an expert in the kinds of preternatural goings-on that have everyone spooked. And she's got an 'in' with the creature that can make sense of the slayings-the sexy master vampire known as Jean-Claude.

Goodreads review by Ken on October 16, 2019

A perfectly supernatural spooky read for October, there’s something easily readable about the Anita Blake series.

Three teen boys are brutally slain, a young teen girl is left for dead and a young boy has been kidnap......more

Goodreads review by Tilly on January 01, 2012

The creativity that seeps into Laurell Hamilton’s book is astonishing. With that said, Bloody Bones is one of her books in the Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series that really doesn’t do it for me.
