The #1 bestselling author Iris Johansen delivers the first in a trilogy that will begin to answer questions that have haunted her legion of fans for over a decade, in her next novel of breathtaking suspense
Eve Duncan's mission in life is to bring closure to the families who have experienced the agony of a missing child. As a forensic sculptor, she is able to piece together bones, create a face, and bring an identity to a child who would have otherwise gone unidentified...maybe forever. Eve is brilliant, and driven, and tormented—because her own daughter, Bonnie, was taken from her years ago. And Eve has never discovered what happened to her. But now a name from the past resurfaces, thanks to CIA agent Catherine Ling who knows all too well what it's like to lose a child.
After teaming up with Agent Ling to find her missing son, Eve and Catherine share a bond forged by their mutual pain. Now, Catherine challenges Eve with a name: John Gallo. A man from Eve's past. A man, seemingly raised from the dead, whose whereabouts are unknown. Could Gallo be the missing piece to the puzzle that has haunted Eve for years? Why was he in Atlanta just before Bonnie's disappearance? With a brilliant narrative that goes back to Eve Duncan's early life, exploring her history and motivations like no other novel before, Eve reveals long-guarded secrets and is guaranteed to leave Johansen fans panting for more.

"Yet another wonderful mystery. As usual with Ms. Johansen (when she writes by herself), it is almost impossible to put down. This is one book you want to read all in one time. No good place to put it down and sleep or work!"
— Stephanie (5 out of 5 stars)
" I found this story hard to get into at first but then it took off. "
— MASH, 1/19/2014" An enjoyable read, but there was nothing outstanding about the characters or plot. "
— Ericka, 1/15/2014" I was very disappointed with this book. I like the character of Jane McGuire and MacDuff, but this book seemed to veer off course and not stick with what the author set up in previous books. Previously, MacDuff was insanely after Jane and she had strong feelings for him. Then in this book MacDuff plays such a small role and never really even talks to Jane after the second chapter. Meanwhile, she is intrigued with Caleb, and all this happens under MacDuff's nose. Strange and disjointed. Not a very good thriller, either. "
— Holly, 1/10/2014" Good read - intense thriller "
— Leslie, 12/14/2013" Maybe the Eve Duncan series is just getting old to me, or maybe I just wasn't in the mood for this one. I didn't think this one of the series was as good as the others. I love Iris Johansen's style of writing but for some reason this one seemed to drag & her filling the reader in on previous characters made the story lack some of the excitement of her previous writings. "
— B, 12/10/2013" Mostly Jane, with a little bit of Eve. Brings back Jock and Seth, and some other characters. Good read. "
— Shannon, 11/17/2013" Love every book by Iris Johansen that I have ever read! "
— Geraldine, 11/11/2013" Better than 5 stars best book yet "
— Donna, 10/3/2013" Very Good; Continuing character: Eve Duncan; Eve's adopted daughter Jane runs afoul of a cult that worships Judas Iscariot and has torture on its agenda; getting into the paranormal a little too much "
— Joe, 8/21/2013" A decent read but not what I expect from this author. Perhaps it was just a little too sci-fi from an author that I expect to receive mystery-suspense/romance. "
— Vivian, 7/19/2013" A really suspenseful, easily addictive novel, it was both dark and extremely exciting; two qualities high on my list of things that make a novel worth reading... "
— Zengfer, 4/5/2013" This one was to tough to stop reading. Can't wait for the next installment. "
— Lorie, 7/23/2012" I like her writing. Keeps you on edge. I have read several by her and loved everyone of them. "
— Luana, 7/14/2012" I love it it was amazing thriller!!!!! "
— Leila, 7/6/2012" I think that even if I had read another book in this series, I would not have liked this book. It just wasn't thrilling enough! I think I was expecting a little more. "
— Becky, 6/6/2012" always enjoy an Iris Johansen book..love Eve Duncan "
— Teresa, 2/7/2012" The logic of this is way off. The biblical references are ?? "
— Della, 12/1/2011" Read it. One of those books that I don't quite understand why I did. "
— Pam, 5/18/2011" Dean Koonts, meets CSI, meets Dan Brown, meets Steve Berry, meets Jack Higgins as Eve, Jane and Joe confront an evil religious sect the threatens them...some love interest for Jane evolves...the usual fun read!!! "

— Crystal, 3/26/2011" A really suspenseful, easily addictive novel, it was both dark and extremely exciting; two qualities high on my list of things that make a novel worth reading... "
— Zengfer, 3/15/2011" Not too bad. I like Eve better then Jane but I guess you have to evolve at some point. Love listening to audiobooks when there are irish characters. "
— Michelle, 3/15/2011" Not one of Johansen's best. Slow, weak story. "
— Tricia, 3/4/2011" I love this series. The characters never sit still. Action abounds as the quest takes them around the world. Unique plot. Unique characters. Danger. Tough men. Tough women. FUN! "
