'She'd come to New York to be a cop, because she believed in order. Needed it to survive. Her miserable and abusive childhood, with all its blank spaces and dark corners, couldn't be changed. But she had changed. She had taken control, had made herself into the person some anonymous social worker had named Eve Dallas...' But in a few weeks she won't just be Eve Dallas, lieutenant, homicide. She'll be Roarke's wife. But Eve's wedding plans may have to be put on hold as her private and professional lives collide...The victim in her latest murder investigation is one of the most sought-after women in the world. A top model who would stop at nothing to get what she wanted - even another woman's man. And Eve's chief suspect is the other woman in this fatal love triangle - her best friend Mavis. Putting her job on the line to head the investigation, Eve discovers that the world of high fashion thrives on an all-consuming passion for youth and fame. One that leads from the runway to the dark underworld of New York City where drugs can fulfil any desire - for a price...
I am turning into a total Eve & Roarke addict!
The stories are so well written and easy to read, the characters are adorable (mostly! - even Summerset is growing on me now)
I am beginnig to enjoy the growth of the relationship between Eve and Roarke so much that it almost doesn't matter whodunnit!
Like Eve I missed loads of the clues early on in this one, and had convinced myself that i was on the right track with the murderer (coincidentally the same one she followed) But then was thrown a huge curveball at the end. Fabulous!
The ensemble cast is also starting to grow, and i feel as though I have been thrown into the centre of this huge family of friends. Its great!
