The "In Death Poster" is NOT included. Lieutenant Eve Dallas has risked her life countless times chasing criminals. But when it's her husband's life in danger, she must balance her tenacity as a homicide detective with her terror of losing the man she loves. While Eve examines a fresh body in New York's ashington Square Park, her husband, Roarke, spots an all-too-familiar face among the onlookers. He knows Lorcan Cobbe from his days on the streets of Dublin. He knows that Cobbe kills for a living-and burns with hatred for Roarke, the man he believes to be his half brother. Eve is quick to suspect that the victim's spouse--resentful over his wife's recent affair and poised to inherit her family fortune-- would have happily paid a high-priced assassin to do his dirty work. Roarke is just as quick to warn her that if Cobbe is her man, she needs to be careful. Law-enforcement agencies around the world have pursued this coldhearted killer for years, to no avail. And Cobbe's lazy smirk when he looks Roarke's way indicates that he will target anyone who matters to Roarke ... and is confident he'll get away with it. Eve is desperate to protect Roarke. Roarke is desperate to protect Eve. And together, they're determined to find Cobbe before he finds them-even if it takes them far outside Eve's usual jurisdiction.
