"Cold rimmed her belly, frosted its way up to her throat. She couldn't breathe through the ice of it. Fear scratched at her throat. 'How did you find me?' Nothing shocks Eve Dallas. As New York's most prominent and headstrong homicide Lieutenant, she's seen everything. But when someone from her past shows up - someone sickly sweet and viciously cruel - Eve panics. Foster carer Trudy Lombard spent years traumatising the young and the vulnerable. To the tough, aggressive Eve, these memories cut deep. So when Trudy is found lying dead in a pool of her own blood days after their meeting, Eve feels nothing. But the cop inside her vows to find the killer. And all the while her memories torment her...'Gut-searing emotional drama' David Baldacci"@en
"For once detective Eve Dallas can look at her latest murder victim and feel absolutely nothing. For Trudy Lombard awakens memories in Eve she'd rather forget.

But now - only a few days after showing up in Eve's office - Lombard is dead. A cop to the core, Eve is determined to solve the case, if only for the sake of Trudy's grieving son. Unfortunately, the list of suspects should probably include every child who ever passed through Trudy's home. And Eve and Roarke will follow a dangerous path to find out who turned the victimiser into a victim..."
