Book description
The dead were her business. She lived with them, worked with them,
studied them. She dreamed of them. And because that didn't seem to be
enough, in some deep, secret chamber of her heart, she mourned for
them.' The first victim is found lying on a sidewalk in the rain. The
second murdered in her own apartment building. Police Lieutenant Eve
Dallas has no problem finding connections between the two crimes. Both
victims are beautiful and highly successful women; their glamorous lives
and loves were the talk of the city. And their intimate relations with
men of great power and wealth provide Eve with a long list of suspects -
including her own lover, Roarke. As a woman, Eve is compelled to trust
the man who shares her bed. But as a cop, it's her job to follow every
lead...to explore every secret passion, no matter how dark. Or how
dangerous J. D. Robb is the pseudonym for Nora Roberts, the author of
nearly two hundred NEW YORK TIMES bestsellers, with more than 300
million copies of her books in print. She lives in Maryland.
