What this book is about
In 2058 New York City, homicide detective Eve Dallas investigates the murder of a licensed companion — a crime that looks like the work of a serial killer with a very specific target list. As she pursues the case, she finds herself drawn into a complicated relationship with the Irish billionaire who's her prime suspect. The first Eve Dallas novel launched one of the longest-running series in crime fiction: propulsive, romantic, and genuinely inventive about the future.
