Publisher's Summary

The brand-new thriller in the Sunday Times best-selling series

For a homicide cop, murder often started the day. For the mixed-race female sloppily wrapped in a tarp and stuffed in a construction site dumpster, it had surely ended hers.

Lt. Eve Dallas hasn't even arrived at work when her first call of the day comes in. Alva Quirk - 46 years old, sidewalk sleeper - was beaten to death with a crowbar. Known to the local cops for handing out origami flowers to anyone who gives her change, Alva was well-liked, but with no fixed address, no job and no family, there's no one to remember her.

Eve has barely had time to examine the crime scene when her second victim of the morning is discovered just a block away. Make that second and third. Jane Doe - a well-dressed young mother and her baby shot and buried over 40 years ago.

Two very different victims in the same location with no one to claim them. Coincidence? Or does the history of the site hold the answer? To uncover the truth, Eve must delve into a world of family businesses, Russian mobsters and shady dealings. These two women may have been forgotten in their lifetimes, but Eve Dallas won't let them be forgotten in death

2023 AUDIBLE REVIEW
Great listening in audible.
The ending was even better when listening.
BOOK REVIEW 2021
Eve, Roarke and the gang stand for two women plus.
One who was hiding due to abuse by one who held the badge that Eve holds so high, perfect justice is served there. Sadly, it is greed and expectations that rule there.
And two more who were never forgotten and will be mourned by he who loved them and by those who didn’t even know them.
Once found, mother and child became Eve’s and Roarke’s, and they were always going to get the justice their murders deserved.
Another emotionally sad story but the way Eve and the rest went about getting justice was poetic.
We didn’t get enough personal time with the big new home/house decorating and move issue which was a pity, just a few snippets to whet our appetite, hopefully in the next book.
I loved how Eve showed that justice comes in different forms to a Russian mobster.
I would have loved to have just had that bit more about what that nasty killer ended up getting sentenced. Closure and justice, though time will be kind by not taking too long to end their life. I am sure the hardships of prison will take a fast toll.
Read through my library. Review posted when first read but cannot find it so posting again.

In death in love

Never miss a new JD Robb book. Love the interactions between them all. Eve is growing and showing more emotion as the books continue. A great read

Another Stellar Eve adventure

J. D, don't ever stop writing this story. I wait every Feb and Sept like a kid before Christmas. And for days after I keep wanting to go on with the story.

Disappointing narration

A classic Nora Roberts 'Death' series with familiar characters and storyline. The narrator did not do justice to the main character and often made it difficult to distinguish between the others. I would be reluctant to listen to another novel read by this presenter.

Eve & Rourke once again take as on a journey of ups and downs. Narrator is excellent and happy they are using the same one for all the audio's.
