The predator becomes the prey in the newest thriller in
the #1 New York Times bestselling series featuring
homicide detective Eve Dallas.
She calls herself Lady Justice. And once she has chosen a
man as her target, she turns herself into a tall blonde or a
curvaceous redhead, makes herself as alluring and seductive
as possible to them. Once they are in her grasp, they are
powerless.
The first victim is wealthy businessman Nigel McEnroy. His
company’s human resources department has already paid out
settlements to a couple of his young victims—but they don’t
know that his crimes go far beyond workplace harassment.
Lady Justice knows. And in one shocking night of brutality,
she makes him pay a much steeper price.
Now Eve Dallas and her husband, Roarke, are combing through
the evidence of McEnroy’s secret life. His compulsive need
to record his misdeeds provides them with a wide range of
suspects, but the true identity of Lady Justice remains
elusive. It’s a challenging case, made even more difficult
by McEnroy’s widow, who reacts to the investigation with
fury, denial, and threats. Meanwhile, Lady Justice’s
criminal crusade is escalating rapidly, and if Eve can’t
stop this vigilante, there’s no telling how much blood may
be spilled…
