Anita Blake Wiki

Heinrick and his men were a team of Spooks, assembled to go to St. Louis and recruit Anita for a secret mission. After pulling Anita's file to consider her for possible FBI work, Agent Bradford inadvertently gets her tapped as a potential "Spook". Because she could raise zombies that seemed alive, a team was formed and sent to determine the velidity of the claims and recruit Anita for a mission to raise a dead country's leader.

Although two of the five members were caught, two other succeeded in filming Anita raising a zombie. Because Anita had not used a sacrifice, but her own blood, the zombie was not as good as she could normaly make them. The recording was sent to the team employers, and they decided that Anita's zombies were not good enough.

He worked as a bodyguard for Fidelis Insurance, and along with his partner Canducci, watched and recorded Anita while she raised a zombie. He disappeared after Heinrick was captured and his employers determined that Anita's zombies were not good enough.

Harlan Knox[]

Harlan Knox, was another member of the team. He visited Anita at Animators, Inc. under the alias Leo Harlan and wanted to hire Anita to raise one of his ancestors.

He was questioned by Anita and Zerbrowski about the murders Van Anders committed. Heinrick was unawere of the murder of the four women and gave Anita the address were Van Anders was staying.
