MICAH

Raising the dead is easy. Love is hard.

There are lots of reasons to raise the dead—some private, some public. In this case, the feds have a witness who died before he could speak on the record. They want him raised so his testimony can be taken. So here I am, Anita Blake, necromancer, on a plane to Philadelphia, flying off to do my job. But I’m not alone: Micah, head of the St Louis wereleopards, is with me. I’m happy to have him at my side. Until he mentions that this will be our first time alone together. Just me and Micah. And all my fears and doubts...

STRANGE CANDY

Fantastical fairy tales that will leave you craving more: from the woman who marries into a family of wizards to a couple fleeing a gang of love-hungry cupids, readers will revel in these unique visions.
