Luckily, her multimillionaire husband Roarke’s expertise comes in handy with the number crunching. But as he mines the crucial data that will break the cas

Trade Review
“Life and death literally intertwine in this outstanding novel that emphasizes to the emotional growth of Eve and Mavis over the course of this series. This book is definitely worth the wait—and a worth a hankie or two. This is Robb's very best yet!”—RT Book Reviews

“Dallas methodically cuts through her twin cases with barely a hitch, but she’s such a prickly-sharp, memorable character (one of many, in fact), you’ll enjoy watching her do it.”—Entertainment Weekly
