Synopsis

To cover for Larry, whose new wife, Tammy, has been rushed to the hospital in premature labor, Anita has to head out-of-town to Philadelphia, the city of brotherly love, to raise a federal witness. It seems to be a straightforward, simple raising, the most difficult thing is that it requires a plane trip.

Micah goes with her to feed the ardeur... This will be the first time that they have been totally alone together since they first met. But, of course, nothing is ever simple or straight forward when Anita becomes involved.

Hey guys! I started the Anita Blake series back during the summer and I have made it up to the next book which is Micah on my list. I know I am slow but between kids and going to college not much time can be spared. Anyway I am getting mixed reviews about the book. I keep getting the "just skip that one" or "you will love this one". I am not a big fan of Micah cause for one thing he is just too short for me but I dont want to miss any important information. What do you think?
