Bloody Bones ~ Laurell Hamilton

This is the fifth book in the Anita Blake series. Anita is called to another part of the state to investigate some preternatural deaths. While there, there are some vampire killings, and Anita becomes involved, and ends up having to ask Jean-Claude for help. We get to see a lot more of Jean-Claude and Jason, a werewolf that Jean Claude keeps close to him. There is also a great deal more cooperation between Anita and Jean-Claude in this novel. We only have one scene with Richard in the entire novel, and it is a short one. There is also very little of the RPIT team, as they are stuck in St. Louis investigating a murder of their own.
