The Laughing Corpse
By Laurell K. Hamilton, 1994
Series: Anita Blake

Second in the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series. Harlod Gaynor offers Anita Blake two million dollars to raise a zombie, and this is an offer that she has to keep refusing. This long dead corpse would take a human sacrifice to raise, but apparently someone was insane enough try once before. As Anita tracks a killer creature she has never encountered before she also becomes unpleasantly involved with a voodoo priestess who is a suspect in the zombie raising.
