It was just another after-work happy-hour bar downtown, where business professionals unwound with a few drinks, complained about the boss, maybe hooked up with someone for the night. Until something went terribly wrong. At first it was just a friction in the air. The noise intensified. The crowd seemed oppressive. Some sharp words were exchanged, some pushing and shoving. Then the madness descended. And after twelve minutes of chaos and violence, eighty people lay dead. 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 people 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, yet 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. . . .

"As usual another one of her finest books. They just get better. Every In Death book in read is better than the last. This one was no exception. Good story line, always good murder mystery. Very good detective work. With a very surprising ending." — Judy (5 out of 5 stars)

" I confess ....I enjoy this series. Love Peabody! "
" The first book of the collection that was just ok not the usual standard "
" A return to form for the series after the unrelentingly depressing slog that was New York to Dallas. Lots of murder and depravity, but presented in the nice, light-hearted way we have come to expect. "
" A really intense book in this series. The method of muder is biohazard and its lethalness is terrible. I love Dallas and Roarke. "
" This book is a lot weaker plot-wise than is normally the case & the interactions between characters aren't as rich emotionally. "
" This one really wasn't that exciting... I think the series really needs to end at this point. I enjoyed the story, but it's the same thing over and over now with the newest books. I've gotten to where we don't buy them, just get the new ones out from the library. "
" Good mystery with a touch of romance...as always. "
" I started this one Saturday morning. I could not put it down, it was that good. As the pieces come together you can really see how Dallas' team really does work together to get the job done. "
" If you have never experienced Dallas and Roarke you don't know what your missing. I keep expecting the books to start repeating themselves and everytime am treated to an even better story than before. "
" Another great one - loved it. "
" Do these In Death novels ever get old? Nope. Love every one. This one was a little tough to read though with the amount of violence. "
" J.D. Robb never fails for a quick read to take me away from everyday life. "
" I LOVE this series! The characters are like old friends and this book did not disappoint! "
" Can't help but LOVE Eve and Roarke! I wish Nora would write faster, I hate waiting for the next book. "
" One of her best yet. Fantastic! "
" Loved it. I don't know how she keeps coming up with new and interesting plots. "
" This series is a very enjoyable read. "
" Great read. Love the interactions of all the characters. Eve and Roake were to die for of course. Great mystery. Would recommend to anyone to read it. "
" I really like this series, and this book didn't disappoint! "
" Another Eve Dallas, which always makes me happy. Even more than the cases, I always enjoy the interplay between the expanding core of characters. Plus, Eve is a kick-butt, sarcastic woman, so what's not to love? "
