Description

When a woman is found posed with unsettling care in a New York City playground—complete with fresh alterations, a hidden fatal wound, and a childlike note—homicide detective Eve Dallas is pulled into a case that feels both intimate and impossibly old. As the investigation points to trauma resurfacing after decades, Eve and the department’s top profiler race to identify a killer whose methods don’t match any known pattern, even as more young women who resemble the first victim vanish. In Robb’s signature blend of procedural precision and psychological depth, the story explores how family history, memory, and unresolved pain can shape violence across time. With every clue, Eve must navigate a chilling trail into the past and into the fractured logic of a mind determined to be understood—before the next disappearance becomes the next body.
