About this eBook

In this crime thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling series, Lieutenant Eve Dallas tracks a pair of Bonnie and Clyde copycats whose heated passion for each other is fueled by cold brutality.
 
When Eve Dallas examines a fresh body in a seedy alleyway in downtown Manhattan, the victim’s injuries are so extensive that she almost misses the clue. Carved into the skin is the shape of a heart—initials inside reading “E” and “D”...
 
In Arkansas, Ella-Loo and her recently released ex-con boyfriend, Darryl, don’t ever intend to part again. So they hit the road, but then things get a little messy and they wind up killing someone—an experience that stokes a fierce, wild desire in Ella-Loo. A desire for Darryl. And a desire to kill again.
 
As they cross state lines on their way to New York to find the life they think they deserve, they leave a trail of evil behind them. But now they’ve landed in the jurisdiction of Lt. Dallas and her team at the New York Police and Security Department. And, with her husband Roarke at her side, Eve has every intention of hunting them down and giving them what they truly deserve...

Ratings and reviews

Oh these characters were very sick indeed! I love the import of a Deputy from another state to help find and catch these killers. (He was a great character and I'm hoping that maybe we'll meet him again in a future story.)He was very instrumental in the gathering of evidence and information that leads to the capture. Another page turner, but not for the squeamish of explicit details of murder. Suzie

Excellent read. Every time there's a new book I brace myself thinking.. this time it'll be the book that's boring or the series will jump the shark... but so far not one is disappointing. Some are definitely better than others though, and this is now in the top 5 for me. I ended up staying up all night to finish it and I actually got so wrapped up in the story that my husband startled me when he came to bed. Fantastic addition to the storyline!

J.D. ROBB is one of the most talented and gifted writers that I have had the pleasure to read!! So far I've read every book in the Eve and Rourke series and intend to continue reading every one that she writes!!! I get so engrossed in her books that before I know it the sun has risen and I have gotten well over 1/2 of the way finished with it!! Thank you J.D. ROBB for all of the books that you've written & entertained us with all of these years!!!! May The Good Lord & His Angels guide, protect, and hold you in their loving arms forever!!!
