Opis

The phenomenal series set in a future New York City continues, as Lieutenant Eve Dallas hunts for the killer of a seemingly ordinary history teacher--and uncovers some extraordinary surprises.

Eve Dallas doesn't like to see innocent people murdered. And the death of history teacher Craig Foster is clearly a murder case. The lunch that his wife lovingly packed was tainted with deadly ricin. And Mr. Foster's colleagues, shocked as they may be, have some shocking secrets of their own. It's Eve's job to get a feel for all the potential suspects--and find out why someone would have done this to a man who seemed so inoffensive, so pleasant...so innocent.

Someone Eve could easily picture dead is an old flame of her billionaire husband Roarke, who has turned up in New York and manipulated herself back into his life. Consumed by her jealousy--and Roarke's indifference to it--Eve finds it hard to focus on the Foster case. But when another man turns up dead, she'll have to keep in mind that both innocence and guilt can be facades...

Recenzje

Praise for Innocent in Death

For the first time in Robb's exceptional series, things are not copacetic on the home front for Lt. Eve Dallas and her billionaire husband, Roarke. One of the enduring strengths of this series is the relationship growth among all the characters, but especially Eve. The remarkable Robb perfectly balances gritty suspense, dangerous drama and pulse-pounding romance! RT Book Reviews

Once again Lt. Eve Dallas shows why she's 'New York City's top murder cop' in Roberts's 24th thriller...Besides a provocative puzzler, Robb provides an intense relationship update on Dallas and Roarke. Publishers Weekly

Roarke and Eve remain an appealing pair, and Eve s flashes of vulnerability contrast nicely with her no-nonsense approach to work. Kirkus Reviews
