Set in 2060, this latest "In Death" novel has Lt. Eve
Dallas and her group of experienced investigators looking
into the mass murder of patrons of a trendy Lower West

horrific events be connected to the Red Horse network,
which was prolific during the Urban Wars of the 21st

intense analysis, aided by her intelligent investigators,
leads to a complex and satisfying conclusion.
The multi-talented Nora Roberts, writing as J. D.
