New York to Dallas 4.5 Stars A killer from Eve's days as a rookie escapes from prison and challenges her to a game of Cat and Mouse in the city that haunts her nightmares - Dallas, Texas. Another excellent addition to the series as Eve comes face to face with the most traumatic experiences of her childhood, and is pushed to the limits of her physical and mental endurance. Balancing out her pursuit of one of the more depraved and malicious villains in the books thus far, are moments of love and support from Eve's husband, Roarke as well as their closest friends and allies. Looking forward to Eve's next investigation. I really enjoyed this suspenseful read. I bought this at a local library sale and I voluntarily chose to review this story. I've given it a 4.2 * rating. This is not for the under 18 readers. There is a lot of violence and cursing by the main characters. This story did pull me in fast and kept me reading to find out how it would end. This is a little futuristic that threw me for a little bit but not overly much. Ends well. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

When a monster named Isaac McQueen--taken down by Eve back in her uniform days--escapes from Rikers, he has two things in mind. One is to pick up where he left off, abducting young victims and leaving them scarred in both mind and body. The other is to get revenge on the woman who stopped him all those years ago.

A violent pedophile that Eve puts away almost as her first case has escaped from prison and is determined to continue his criminal ways. And punishing Eve for catching him is very high on his to-do list. Everything about Isaac McQueen reminds her of the horror that she lived when she was a small child. She sees herself in all his victims. Now McQueen has gone to Dallas and kidnapped the last victim of his previous spree. Eve has to go to try to catch him and cage him for good.
She and Roarke travel there with Eve very off balance. She has no good memories of Dallas. After all, that is where she ended up as an eight-year-old bleeding, battered, and with a broken arm after she managed to kill her father. She is also off-balance because she doesn't have her team with her. Her friends are all working the case from the New York end. Luckily, the Dallas Police Department is both smart and competent. In fact, the twin sister of the woman McQueen kidnapped and who was also one of his victims is on the force.
Besides trying to find McQueen, Eve makes another startling discovery that brings back her childhood. The story is filled with traumatic events. But it is also filled with the love and support that exist in her relationship with Roarke. Their love is tested but holds up remarkably well.
This was an excellent, emotional episode in a wonderful series. If you are reading the series, you don't want to miss this one. If you haven't started the series yet, why not? It has mystery, romance, and humor in a futuristic New York. ( )
