No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
In early spring of 2059, Lieutenant Eve Dallas is called off planet to face a grueling ordeal - giving a seminar at the largest police conference of the year, to be held in a swanky resort. A resort which just happens to be owned by her husband, Roarke, of course. Even though Eve can't quite see it that way, it's supposed to be at least partly a vacation. But work intrudes in the form of a bloody homicide, and Eve is off and running. The case is complicated by Eve's personal history with the victim - and by the killer's history with Roarke. As danger closes in and the body count rises, Eve must find a way to stop the cycle of violence and revenge, and shove the past back where it belongs.
Nora Roberts is the number-one New York Times-bestselling author of more than 150 novels, including High Noon, Angels Fall, Blue Smoke, and Northern Lights. She is also the author of the bestselling futuristic suspense series written under the pen name J. D. Robb. There are more than 280 million copies of her books in print.
Charlie's Angels meet Thelma & Louise in this sexy and futuristic murder mystery. Ladies, you'll want to hear Susan Ericksen read the last scene over and over and, mmmm, over again. Listeners of both genders will find themselves relieved when the book's capable heroine Lt. Eve Dallas comes to the end of a reckless motorcycle ride. Ericksen reads as if she wrote and lived Robb's story, yet there's a distraction to the drama. Why has the author chosen to set this mystery series in the future? Repetitive references to the year 2050 add nothing. A timeless, empowering love story doesn't need "wrist units" when "watches" will do.
