While Eve examines a woman's body in Washington Square Park, her husband, Roarke, spots a familiar, smirking face among the onlookers. It's Lorcan Cobbe, a man he knows from the streets of Dublin, who kills for a living - and who burns with a personal hatred for him. The working theory is that the dead heiress's spouse hired Cobbe - but while they're hunting for Cobbe, he's hunting for them. The 51th book in the bestselling series.
