About this Item

Signed by author in blue ink (signature only) to a preliminary blank page. Gold "signed copy" sticker showing some rub to front panel of this "near fine" first printing. The 38th entry in Robb's "In Death" adventures of homicide detective Eve Dallas, who polices a 2060 New York City where guns have been banned. (It's never made clear what happened to the Second Amendment, but it's a wish-fulfillment fantasy that Robb's readers seem to enjoy sharing, along with the notion that our heroine can enjoy living in a magic castle in Central Park with her fantastically handsome Irish capitalist billionaire husband (so capitalism also survives in New York? Hey, fantasy) -- a gazillion-room castle apparently staffed with only one aging Man Friday. This time around, Dallas's billionaire husband starts the demolition of a long-empty New York building -- and promptly discovers two skeletons, wrapped in plastic. 402 pp.

About this title

Synopsis

Lieutenant Eve Dallas uncovers a conspiracy when she investigates the murders of some of New York City's troubled youth in this thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling In Death series.

Leading the demolition of a long-empty New York building that once housed a makeshift shelter for troubled teenagers, Lieutenant Eve Dallas’s husband uncovers two skeletons wrapped in plastic. And by the time Eve’s done with the crime scene, there are twelve murders to be solved.

The victims are all young girls. A tattooed tough girl who dealt in illegal drugs. The runaway daughter of a pair of well-to-do doctors. They all had their stories. And they all lost their chance for a better life.

Then Eve discovers a connection between the victims and someone she knows. And she grows even more determined to reveal the secrets of the place that was called The Sanctuary—and the evil concealed in one human heart.
