Set sometime in the near future, for some unknown reason, except to introduce lingo we don't use now. That bothered me. The relationship Eve Dallas has with her husband, Rourke, is delightful. The story develops slowly and with precision, and excellent police work. An unbelievable plot line, one with self-entitled high school friends who just cannot let go of the past. Very interesting. Thrilling. A good solid book. Would have loved it more if I could have related to the futuristic terminology, which did absolutely nothing to improve the novel.

I love this series and have every book. Preordered 51 and 52 and actually reread from book 1 when I can. This series is always a winner. Always 4. 4.5 or 5 because each book takes me away. If you like looking into the future a little, like who done it, and people with flaws but hearts that care, this series is for you. You can never really go wrong. We follow right along with Eve and Peabody as they investigate. I want Eve and Roarke as my neighbors. The strength of Eve and Roarke relationship, the give, the take, sigh. As with each book we get to see a face from the past so to speak, friends, and we watch Eve and Roarke grown in world that continues to change.

I love this series but I agree with the reviewer who said the writing is slightly off..as if someone else is ghost writing or someone is filling in. Maybe the series has run its course because the closeness of the characters is lacking. I will still continue to follow the series but hope the passion and relatability will return especially between Dallas and Roark..just something missing in these last 2 books. I see the date of my review is wrong and don't know how to change it..I wrote it 5/2/2021
