In this third installment of the In Death series Lieutenant Eve Dallas faces two stressful situations, her upcoming wedding and her best friend being the main suspect in a brutal murder.
The book begins with Eve trying to organise her wedding dress on her day off... Being Eve, it is not a simple shopping trip!
But her first case is the death of a confidential informant known as Boomer. Eve asks for Officer Peabody to be assigned as her aide for the case, so this is their first case working together.
The case involves drugs, so a Lieutenant from the Illegals division becomes involved in the investigation too.
Eve also continues to have nightmares, and finally remembers what happened before she was found as a child with a broken arm and no memory.
A lot of growth in relationships between characters in this book.
