Description

In this thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling phenomenon, Eve Dallas tracks down those who break the law—including the ones sworn to uphold it.
 
Detective Eve Dallas and her partner, Peabody, are following up on a senseless crime—an elderly grocery owner killed by three stoned punks for nothing more than kicks and snacks. This is Peabody’s first case as primary detective—good thing she learned from the master.

But soon Peabody stumbles upon a trickier situation. After a hard workout, she’s all alone in the locker room when the gym door clatters open, and—while hiding inside a shower stall trying not to make a sound—she overhears two fellow officers arguing. It doesn’t take long to realize they’re both crooked—guilty not just of corruption but of murder. Now Peabody, Eve, and Eve’s husband, Roarke, are trying to get the hard evidence they need to bring down the dirty cops—knowing all the while that the two are willing to kill to keep their secret.

    WOW! I am so excited in the ending of all endings. All through out this book I knew Lt. Dallas would get her MAN.... I have anticipated the end, but found there was a whole lot more. I will read more of these novels going forward. Thanks for the suspense!

    I love reading all these stories! I can imagine my self as Eve who is what I wish I could be. Strong self assured and smart enough to know the good and the bad in people. To stand every time for the good guys. When I read these I go to their world and live the story every time. J. D. Robb/Nora Roberts knows how to pull you into the story and really live the situations. I think this is one of my new favorites! I am now reading the "New York to Dallas" book and am already hooked in with wanting to get Isaac McQueen off the streets as badly as Eve does!

    I loved this book! There is a scene at the end that nearly made me cry. I have said this before and I will say it again, this is one of my favorite series and one that I think needs to be read in order. It is totally worth it! The scene at the end I think will have a great impact if you know the background of the characters. It was awesome and I highly recommend this book!

    This is only the second of her books I've read and have become a real fan, I have to say New York to Dallas was the best so far.

    As always Dallas does her thing but she continues to grow & evolve. All the characters have great presence. Of course there is nothing like a good old fashioned cat fight either. Read it you won't be disappointed!

    I love JD Robb and LT Eve Dallas and crew. Fast paced, kick behind, take no prisoners. I like her style and can't wait for the next installment.

    My first read of a Robb book. Predictable, not a lot of imagination. Wouldn't buy another.
  • Outstanding

    There is nobody like Lt. Eve Dallas to take on dirty cops, with the pride for her job that she has, I knew this would be a good read. I really wish these books were made as movies so I could see in living color, the hardcore cop whose married to the richest man in the world, show us that although she's not up on the latest slang or girl talk, she is in fact human & the best cop I've ever read about. At some points I even cried...outstanding performance!

    Great storyline, characters! I feel the EXCESSIVE and continual use of the F word demeans the author and her characters. I have read most of this author's books by this name and others and found her need to swear unnecessary to make the story grab and keep your attention. With her talent and imagination for a story it was a error to to be so gutter minded and bring her characters down. I am looking forward to the next book having an upward swing.
  • Loved it!!!
