In the latest thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling series, homicide detective Eve Dallas investigates a murder with a mysterious motiveΓÇöand a terrifying weapon.

After Eve Dallas calls the hazmat teamΓÇöand undergoes testing to reassure both her and her husband that she hasnΓÇÖt been exposedΓÇöitΓÇÖs time to look into Dr. AbnerΓÇÖs past and relationships. Not every victim Eve encounters is an angel, but it seems that Abner came pretty closeΓÇöthough he did ruffle some feathers over the years by taking stands for the weak and defenseless. While the lab tries to identify the deadly toxin, Eve hunts for the sender. But when someone else dies in the same grisly manner, it becomes clear that sheΓÇÖs dealing with either a madmanΓÇöor someone who has a hidden and elusive connection to both victims.
