    "Edward was a hit man. He specialized in monsters. Vampires, shape shifters, anything and everything. There were people like me who did it legal, but Edward didn't sweat the legalities or hell, the ethics. He was an equal opportunity killer. I may be one of the few frinds that Edward has, but it's like being friends with a tame leopard. It may curl on the foot of your bed and let you poet it's heat, but it can still eat your throat out..."

    I love the Anita Blake series, and this book is no exception. I found it fascinating to be able to get a better look at Edward's character through Anita's eyes.

There are a lot of monsters in Anita Blake's life. And some of them are human. One such individual is the man she calls Edward, a bounty hunter who specializes in the preternatural. He calls her to help him hunt down the greatest evil she has ever encountered. Something that kills and maims and vanishes into the night. Something Anita will have to face alone...
