BOOK SYNOPSIS

Futuristic cop Eve Dallas is back on the job. This time it's Christmas in New York, and all the lonely hearts are easy pickings for a serial killer spreading death through a dating service.

My Thoughts

Facing her worst nightmares as she closes in on a sexual predator whose vicious murders of 4 victims cause Eve and her fellow officers to race against the clock before he kills the 5th.

This was a really hard case to read about and for Eve's character an even harder case to deal with as it hit so many buttons for her on so many levels.

I have to admit that it was a joy to see how not only Eve handled herself despite her personal feelings but how Peabody and McNabb start to find their way to each other.

Another excellent read in the series, this one of course is an earlier work so much of what occurs was not exactly new to me but it freshened up the series by allowing me to go back to when Eve and Roarke were still newlyweds and before Peabody and McNabb were a couple.
