Bullet

The triumvirate created by master vampire Jean-Claude, necromancer Anita Blake, and werewolf Richard Zeeman has made Jean-Claude one of the most powerful vampires in the U.S. He's consolidating power in himself and those loyal to him, doing in America what Belle Morte did in Europe. Jean-Claude's motives may be kinder, but as any lawyer will say: motives matter, but you're just as dead.
