Blood Rites: Bk. 6 (The Dresden Files)

Synopsis: In this novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling Dresden Files, Chicagos only professional wizard takes on a case for a vampire and becomes the prime suspect in a series of ghastly murders. Harry Dresden has had worse assignments than going undercover on the set of an adult film. Like fleeing a burning building full of enraged demon-monkeys, for instance. Or going toe-to-leaf with a walking plant monster. Still, theres something more troubling than usual about his newest case. The films producer believes hes the target of a sinister curse--but its the women around him who are dying, in increasingly spectacular ways. Harrys doubly frustrated because he only got involved with this bizarre mystery as a favor to Thomas--his flirtatious, self-absorbed vampire acquaintance of dubious integrity. Thomas has a personal stake in the case Harry cant quite figure out, until his investigation leads him straight to the vampires oversexed, bite-happy family. Now, Harrys about to discover that Thomas family tree has been hiding a shocking secret: a revelation that will change Harrys life forever. About the Author: A martial arts enthusiast whose resume includes a long list of skills rendered obsolete at least two hundred years ago, #1 New York Times bestselling author Jim Butcher turned to writing as a career because anything else probably would have driven him insane. He lives mostly inside his own head so that he can write down the conversation of his imaginary friends, but his head can generally be found in Independence, Missouri. Jim is the author of the Dresden Files, the Codex Alera novels, and the Cinder Spires series, which began with The Aeronauts Windlass.
