The Laughing Corpse

Harold Gaynor offers Anita Blake a million dollars to raise a 300-year-old zombie. Knowing it means a human sacrifice will be necessary, Anita turns him down. But when dead bodies start turning up, she realizes that someone else has raised Harold's zombie - and that the zombie is a killer. Anita pits her power against the zombie and the voodoo priestess who controls it.
