The predator becomes the prey in the newest thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling series featuring homicide detective Eve Dallas.
She calls herself Lady Justice. And once she has chosen a man as her target, she turns herself into a tall blonde or a curvaceous redhead, makes herself as alluring and seductive as possible to them. Once they are in her grasp, they are powerless.
The first victim is wealthy businessman Nigel McEnroy. His company's human resources department has already paid out settlements to a couple of his young victims—but they don't know that his crimes go far beyond workplace harassment. Lady Justice knows. And in one shocking night of brutality, she makes him pay a much steeper price.
Now Eve Dallas and her husband, Roarke, are combing through the evidence of McEnroy's secret life. His compulsive need to record his misdeeds provides them with a wide range of suspects, but the true identity of Lady Justice remains elusive. It's a challenging case, made even more difficult by McEnroy's widow, who reacts to the investigation with fury, denial, and threats. Meanwhile, Lady Justice's criminal crusade is escalating rapidly, and if Eve can't stop this vigilante, there’s no telling how much blood may be spilled…
My Review:
Yeah, another great read in this series! This is a book where we found out who the villain was about a third of a way through, and then Eve found out two thirds in and then had to prove it. It was another fantastic book, and I really enjoyed it!
The victims in this book, well, the first one deserved to go to prison. And the 3rd guy, too. But the 2nd victim, he was an asshole, greedy and cheating and awful. But he hadn't really committed a crime. Unless deliberately setting up the legal stuff for a company in a way that favours you, when this is the only thing that involves you with the company, is illegal, which it should be if it isn't!
The crimes of the first victim, that made it harder for Eve, because it brought up memories of her father. That this guy harassed and used his power over others against them, and so much more, yeah, there's some really horrible similarities between the two.
The candy thief struck again, of course. There wasn't an update about the farm property, but they did plan, and go, to Italy for another project. And yeah, I just enjoyed these little bits from their lives, because this book took place over the course of 4 days. So very quick!
This book was another great read, and I can't wait to see where it goes from here!
