About this eBook
In this thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling phenomenon, Eve Dallas tracks down those who break the law—including the ones sworn to uphold it.
Detective Eve Dallas and her partner, Peabody, are following up on a senseless crime—an elderly grocery owner killed by three stoned punks for nothing more than kicks and snacks. This is Peabody’s first case as primary detective—good thing she learned from the master.
But soon Peabody stumbles upon a trickier situation. After a hard workout, she’s all alone in the locker room when the gym door clatters open, and—while hiding inside a shower stall trying not to make a sound—she overhears two fellow officers arguing. It doesn’t take long to realize they’re both crooked—guilty not just of corruption but of murder. Now Peabody, Eve, and Eve’s husband, Roarke, are trying to get the hard evidence they need to bring down the dirty cops—knowing all the while that the two are willing to kill to keep their secret.

This is a well written thriller that takes you in to the minds of two people who are trying to discover themselves. It can be a little dry at times but as you continue readings you are drawn into the story by the way the writer uses her words of description and emotion.

This series (The "In-Death" series featuring Lieutenant Eve Dallas) is DEFINITELY my FAVORITE book series. I have yet to read one I didn't LOVE! But this one is in my top five favorites of this series. So much so that I've read it WAY MORE THAN ONCE!!!!! ;-)
