About this eBook

In the new novel in the #1 New York Times-bestselling series, Lt. Eve Dallas is about to walk into the shadows of her husband’s dangerous past...

While Eve examines a fresh body in Washington Square Park, her husband, Roarke, spots a man among the onlookers he’s known since his younger days on the streets of Dublin. A man who claims to be his half brother. A man who kills for a living—and who burns with hatred for him.

Eve is quick to suspect that the victim’s spouse—resentful over his wife’s affair and poised to inherit her fortune—would have happily paid an assassin to do his dirty work. Roarke is just as quick to warn her that if Lorcan Cobbe is the hitman, she needs to be careful. Law enforcement agencies worldwide have pursued this cold-hearted killer for years, to no avail. And his lazy smirk when he looked Roarke’s way indicates that he will target anyone who matters to Roarke...and is confident he’ll get away with it.

Eve is desperate to protect Roarke. Roarke is desperate to protect Eve. And together, they’re determined to find Cobbe before he finds them—even if it takes them across the Atlantic, far outside Eve’s usual jurisdiction...

Ratings and reviews

I've been reading this series since it first started. The last 3-4 books have been off. They're not as descriptive. It seems like a different writer. And in which book did the "half past" time start and why? It hadn't been like that until the last few books. I'll still read the series until the end because I'm vested, but I'm hoping the rest of them return to the former writing style.

I don't know how she does it but "J. D. Robb (Nora Roberts) managed to keep this book fresh and amazing even as it is the 51st(?) in the series. I was on the edge of my seat while literally laughing out loud at some of the content. well done and keep them coming. i don't even regret buying the audio version of the book and non-audio so I could listen at work and read quietly around family.

I Cathy Whitehead need to get a credit back for this book or thing did I sign up for I didn't know what I was doing I made a mistake I want my money back I don't even know how much it is but I'll order it by mistake and it can I have a refund Google
