He killed himself, Lieutenant. He was hanging there, just hanging there from the ceiling light in the living room. And his face . . . Oh God.'

Death follows New York City cop Eve Dallas everywhere - even on her honeymoon with Irish lover Roarke. When one of Roarke's employees is found dead, the post-mortem confirms suicide. An isolated case, or so Eve thinks.

But more suicides follow - strangers with nothing in common. The pathologist's report states each victim has an unexplained mark on their brain. Is this a genetic abnormality or a high-tech method of murder? With the body count rising, Eve must delve into the world of virtual reality to hunt down a twisted killer. A killer who preys on the minds of the innocent.

A solid entry in the series, taking place right after Eve and Roarke get married. It also marks the beginning of the Eve/Peabody partnership, which I enjoy because Peabody’s one of my favorite characters in the series. If it weren’t for the piece of really obvious foreshadowing, I wouldn’t have guessed who the bad guy was.
