Publisher Description
It was one of Eve Dallas’s earliest takedowns, back in her uniform days. A monster named Isaac McQueen had been abducting young victims and leaving them scarred in both mind and body. Thanks to Eve, he wound up where he belonged, removed from civilized society in Rikers. But he’s not behind bars anymore.
After his escape, McQueen has two things in mind. One is to take up where he left off, preying on the young and innocent—when necessary, with the help of a female partner all too willing to be manipulated and to aid and abet his crimes. His other goal: to get revenge on the woman who stopped him all those years ago, now a high-profile lieutenant in the NYPSD and married to one of the city’s richest men.
Commanding Eve’s attention with a chilling and brazen crime, McQueen sets off the chase—forcing Eve down a road marked with blood and tears, a road that eventually leads southwest to Dallas, Texas, the home Eve fled long ago. And each new twist brings her closer to the harrowing memory of when she wasn’t a hardened detective but a vulnerable girl just like McQueen’s innocent prey. As her husband, Roarke, tries to rescue her from the nightmares that claw at her mind, and her partner, Peabody, doggedly works to support her, Eve must confront—and call upon—the darkest parts of her own soul in order to survive.

"I really enjoy series where you really get to know the characters. This was my first J.D. Robb novel although it is the most recent of a longer series. After reading this book, I couldn't wait to start at the first novel in the series to learn more! Since I live in Dallas, the title had captured my attention and I thought I'd give this a try. Now, to just have the time to read the earlier books before the next is released!"

New York to Dallas Listener Reviews

" Lt Eve Dallas. One of her best in a loooong time. Good use of Roarke, new, recurring characters. Involves her and his childhood histories in ways intrinsic to the plot. "
— Shelby, 2/18/2014 -
" It's a solid entry into the series and there are some shocking revelations that take place. The story is heavy on Eve Dallas recreating the crime scenes through monologue and I think I would have liked more action. Still, I don't think fans were disappointed. This is more of a 3 1/2 stars for me. "
— Jane, 2/10/2014 -
" Hard to get through the hideous crimes but a well told story with a positive message. "
— Helen, 2/3/2014 -
" Awesome. Each book of hers keeps getting better. and she closed another chapter in her life. "
— Gayle, 1/26/2014 -
" It was good. Lots of total weird. Missed Peabody & McNabb. Haven't heard much from Charles & Louise either lately...but it was good! "
— Cara, 1/20/2014 -
" Lt Eve Dallas, a reliable enjoyable read. "
— Kerri-ann, 1/17/2014 -
" Loved it. Very tense toward the end. "
— Jessica, 12/10/2013 -
" This series just keeps getting better and better. Highly recommend to everyone, I can't wait for the next. "
— Paul, 11/9/2013 -
" Not nearly as good as the other In-death novels. "
— Debbie, 6/27/2013 -
" Good, it gives you a bit more background into her childhood "
— Dianna, 4/29/2013 -
" I have been waiting a long time for one of the plot's in this book, and I have to say I was not disappointed. "
— April, 4/4/2013 -
" Among the best of the Eve Dallas books. "
— Kathleen, 11/2/2012 -
" OK, I will not give a SPOILER, but this book resolves a lot with Dallas. One of the best yet and I am sorry that it took me so long to read. Darn Canning "
— Melody, 10/28/2012 -
" This was another good book in the "In Death" series that drew upon Eve's past. "
— Judy, 5/27/2012 -
" Great JD Robb book. The best one in the series I think. Fans will not be disapointed. "
— Angela, 5/23/2012 -
" My all time favorite series, characters, etc. This was one of the best in the 33 books. "
— Sarah, 4/13/2012 -
" This is the first "In Death" book not titled "In Death". "
— Deb, 2/14/2012 -
" A great read, per usual, interesting and fast-paced! What can I say I am a fan of J.D. Robb/Nora Roberts :) "
— Lexi, 2/1/2012 -
" Another excellent book by JD Robb. They just keep getting better and better!! "
— Janis, 12/11/2011 -
" As usual ---very good book. More about the emotional and psychological and physical abuse that Eve experienced as a young girl. Eve shows growth as a well rounded loving person and her relation ships move forward. This is my favorite series of Nora Roberts. "
— Laura, 12/8/2011 -
" I enjoyed the story - but it did seem to be a quicker read than most Eve Dallas books. And I have to say that 'anal' is not a great abbreviation for 'analysis' when you have sentences that start with "It was the best anal we have..." "
— Josephine, 11/28/2011 -
" Interesting premise for an Eve Dallas murder mystery. In the future there's a murder mystery that actually goes back to the past for part of the solution. The two combined stories make for very interesting reading. "
— Patricia, 10/17/2011 -
" Two of my favorite authors in one book, how much better could it get. Yes, I know they're the same person. "
— Kathy, 10/15/2011 -
" This is actually two books. Remember When and Big Jack. I had heard Big Jack so this was fun to go back and hear the prequel or 20 years previous. "
— Deb, 9/8/2011 -
" It was intriguing, I still liked the second part (J.D.Robb) more than the first part but I still enjoyed how both stories connected and linked. "
— Annie, 9/2/2011 -
" While I don't really read much Nora Roberts, the beginning half of this let me get that guilty pleasure out of the way without having to read a whole novel. The JD Robb end of it let it finish up in a slightly more gritty way. Not bad. "
— Wendy, 6/23/2011 -
" This is one book that I read of hers that got me into reading JD Robb "
— Kim, 6/21/2011 -
" Love Love Love it!!!! I like the way Nora Roberts broke this book into two parts - one in the present and one in the future. I'd like to see her do more like this :) "
— Cherise, 5/19/2011 -
" The diamonds lost after a major heist turn up in today's generation (a romantic suspense written in the style of Nora Roberts) and two generations later are tracked down in the course of an Eve Dallas murder investigation (written in the style of J.D. Robb). "
— Joy, 5/14/2011 -
" Nora Roberts AND J.D. Robb? What's not to love. "
— Kristin, 4/29/2011 -
" Cute idea - the Roberts part was ok, and the Robb part was a tease. Definitely need more Eve & Roarke. "
— Abby, 4/4/2011 -
" I liked this book. I thought it was a great way for Nora Roberts and J.D. Robb to come together. I thoght that the Nora Roberts part (part 1- present time) was rushed. The J.D. Robb portion (part 2-future) was well written and flowed like part of the series. "
