Marcus and Raina run the local wolfpack. Richard, one of Anita's boyfriends, has twice beaten Marcus in a fight. But in order to take over the wolfpack, the challenger would have to kill the leader, something that Richard has been unwilling to do. Then Richard does end up fighting Marcus again and the way he kills Marcus starts Anita's breakup with him.
The subplot going on with this is Raina's and Gabriel's foray into making pornographic films. Both are sociopathic, torturing and abusing their actors and even using them to make snuff films. This films are then sold on the internet. Of the two "film makers", Raina is as evil as they come. She tries to make a snuff film with Anita as the victim but, as usual, Anita gets out of the situation just in time.
I kept wondering throughout the book about Anita's fascination with guns. I had no idea what she was talking about as she vaguely described each gun she owned and used for killing. It was as if she was having a love affair, appreciating the differences, with her guns. Could this be the author' way of symbolizing the male anatomy? (Not sure if I'm allowed to actually write the word).
Anita is quite an interesting character. She has two lovers she doesn't sleep with; sleeps with at least one of her guns and another one near her bed; hugs and sleeps with a penguin when she needs comfort; knows how to raise the dead; and, has just about every freak and sociopath after her at one time or another. In this book, she doesn't let us down. The is the pre-Danse Macabre Anita and she's so much more likeable here. At one point, she even cries!
