This was a nicely written mystery, with a lot of emotional punch. I say that because while the series itself touches upon and deals with the ongoing issues that Lt. Eve Dallas faces from her horrible and traumatizing childhood, this "chapter" in her story dealt with some very scary events involving those close to her now. And I'm not ashamed there was a page where I did have a tear brought to my eye.

The series continues to be entertaining, interesting, emotionally involving and romantic. Dallas is a great heroine!
