About this eBook
Lieutenant Eve Dallas must foil a terrorist plot in this explosive thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling In Death series.
It was just another after-work happy hour at a bar downtown—until the madness descended. And after twelve minutes of chaos and violence, more than eighty people lay dead.
Lieutenant Eve Dallas is trying to sort out the inexplicable events. Surviving witnesses talk about seeing things—monsters and swarms of bees. They describe sudden, overwhelming feelings of fear and rage and paranoia. When forensics makes its report, the mass delusions make more sense: it appears the bar patrons were exposed to a cocktail of chemicals and illegal drugs that could drive anyone into temporary insanity—if not kill them outright.
But that doesn’t explain who would unleash such horror—or why. Eve’s husband, Roarke, happens to own the bar, but he’s convinced the attack wasn’t directed at him. It’s bigger than that. And if Eve can’t figure it out fast, it could happen again, anytime, anywhere. Because it’s airborne…

Another great book that I couldn't put down. I love how in the middle of a double mass murder investigation, the weapon being very creative, JD incorporates Eve Dallas's past into the story, causing her to come to terms with it. Little by slow, she's dealing with it, learning to put it away and knows that SHE chose her own way of life, despite the horrors of her childhood. And of course, the relationship between her and her husband, Roarke, is always amazing... inspiring really. In the end the killer is caught, but this book has an added, exciting twist. Read it! Suzie

As a long time fan of JD Robb's books, I found this story to be highly entertaining. The last 70 page had me on the edge of my seat. The storyline was well written and it motivated me to continue reading this book.
