Murder was work. Some went about the job devotedly, others carelessly. And for some, murder was a labour of love.
On the day of his sixtieth birthday, Walter C. Pettibone is blissfully unaware of his impending death. His final act in life is to accept a glass of champagne by a woman with startling green eyes. A big mistake.
Homicide lieutenant Eve Dallas knows she faces a deadly foe – one with a frightening vendetta. And as the chase draws Eve dangerously close to her own dark past, her focus slips.
But then Eve’s billionaire husband’s name is put on Julianna’s fatal list – and Eve ups her game. Luring Julianna into a dangerous trap which puts everyone at risk, Eve finds herself fighting for more than justice.
