Resumen del Editor

The death of history teacher Craig Foster devastated his young wife, who'd sent him off to work that morning with a lovingly packed lunch. It shocked his colleagues at the Upper West Side private school. And as for the 10-year-old girls who found him in his classroom in a pool of bodily fluids, they may have been traumatized for life.

Lieutenant Eve Dallas, of course, is more hardened to murder cases. And this is clearly a murder case. That lovingly packed lunch 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.

Now Magdelana Percell - there's someone Eve can picture as a murder victim. Possibly at Eve's own hands. The slinky blonde - an old flame of her billionaire husband, Roarke, from his days on the wrong side of the law - has turned up in New York, and she's anything but innocent.

Unfortunately, Roarke seems blind to Magdelana's manipulation, but not to her shapely figure and flirtatious ways. And he insists that the occasional lunch or business meeting with her is nothing to worry about...and none of Eve's business.

Eve's so unnerved by the situation that she finds it hard to focus on the Foster case. Still, she'll have to put aside her anger, jealousy, and heartbreak, for a while at least - because another man has just turned up dead, and the case is taking some strange turns and hitting some frustrating dead ends.

Eve knows all too well that innocence can be a façade. Keeping that in mind may help her solve this case at last. But it may also tear apart her marriage.

Crack another case with Eve Dallas.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Once again Lt. Eve Dallas shows why she's 'New York City's top murder cop' in [Nora] Roberts's 24th thriller under her Robb pseudonym set half a century into the future." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Susan Ericksen...delivers powerful secondary characters of both genders and varying ages." ( AudioFile)

It was no accident

Wow! What an excellent read/listen. Rapid moving story with exciting characters. Complete with road rage traffic outbursts. A strong mix of who done it and privacy issues. Nice twist and turns with a unpredicted outcome. So sweet, so innocent in death.

UNEXPECTED

I thought I had this story figured out. I could sworn I knew who did, J.D. Robb put a twist in the plot that I did not see comimg.

OMG

What an awesome and awful main storyline! It was very compelling and disturbing, as well

great read

one of the best so far although a bit short for my taste. nice piece of the past shown too!

Awesome as always!

Great story, great narration, love every book in the In Death series by JD Robb!

So creepy and so good

They had a similar plot on an episode of Criminal Minds but the way Nora wrote it is better!

Heart Wrenching

Magdelleina....UGH!!! Eve and Rourke's relationship stronger than ever. I cried and got pissed off. Another great story!! This series never loses its flavor.

Innocent and Chilling

This is one of the books in the series that really sticks with me. Innocent and very chilling at the same time, it is well worth the credit for the audiobook. Ericksen is the voice of the series.

WAIT til you get to the end

Best one so far. it is amazing how she can find new ways to find a killer and better yet who the killer is.

Always one of my fav's for J D Robb

So well-written and that I feel part of the story throughout. Excellent murder plot along with Eve and Roark interaction. Along with one of my favorites for storyline also one of my favorites for Susan Erickson 's unequaled narration.
