Fiction. Romance. Suspense. Thriller. HTML:The New York Times bestselling author of Firestorm, Iris Johansen, returns with a psychological thriller so terrifying, so relentlessly paced, it wonâ??t leave you time to catch your breath before the next shock comes. A forensic sculptor is locked in a deadly duel with a serial killer determined to destroy herâ??one life at a time.

Eve Duncanâ??s job is to put a face on the faceless victims of violent crimes. Her work not only comforts their survivorsâ??but helps catch their killers. But there is another, more personal reason that Eve Duncan is driven to do the kind of work she doesâ??a dark nightmare from a past she can never bury. And as she works on the skull of a newly discovered victim, that past is about to return all over again.

The victim is a Jane Doe found murdered, her face erased beyond recognition. But whoever killed her wasnâ??t just trying to hide her identity. The plan was far more horrifying. For as the face forms under Eveâ??s skilled hands, she is about to get the shock of her life. The victim is someone she knows all too well. Someone who isnâ??t dead. Yet.

Instantly Eveâ??s peaceful life is shattered. The sanctuary of the lakeside cottage she shares with Atlanta detective Joe Quinn and their adopted daughter Jane has been invaded by a killer whoâ??s sent the grimmest of threats: the face of his next victim. To stop him, Eve must put her own life in the balance and question everything and everyone she trusts. Not even Quinn can go where Eve must go this time.

As the trail of faceless bodies leads to a chilling revelation, Eve finds herself trying to catch a master murderer whose grisly work is a testament to a mind warped by perversion and revenge. Now she must pit her skills against his in a showdown where the stakes are life itselfâ??and where the unbearable cost of failure will make Eveâ??s o

Slowly working my way through all the random books I've acquired. This one has been on my bookshelf for years, and don't remember the circumstances under which I acquired it. I usually give every book 50 pages (bound) or 20 minutes (audio), but gave it up when I started skipping paragraphs on p. 30. This is an example of why I try to stay away from endless romance/mystery/thriller series that feature a main character. The 30 pages I read were almost entirely exposition, catching the reader up on everyone's backstories while trying to introduce the new elements of the current story. It's mind numbing, and not at all entertaining. And even after 30 pages of explanations, I don't care about Joe, or Eve, or Jane, or Ruth, or why the killer is doing... whatever.

Joe watched the body wrapped in a dark green tarp being carefully lifted from the grave by the forensic team. "Thanks for coming, Quinn." Detective Christy Lollack was walking toward him. "I know it's not your case but I needed you. This is a weird one."

I read this one back in 2009 so I won't make any other comments but to say I love Iris Johansen ( )
  Nora57 | Jul 29, 2022 |
Easy to read, well written. Story is pretty convoluted, almost overly so with elements of possible reincarnation which some might not like with their mysteries but it's fiction so it's okay with me. I liked Jane, really liked Trevor. ( )

Okay, so I'm not entirely sure why we reference these books as "Eve Duncan" series. This book does include Eve, again as more of a supporting character rather than the lead.

That being said, this story is Jane's. Jane has grown and is now seventeen years old, and wise beyond her years. When a serial murderer "Aldo" sets his sites on Jane, Eve and Joe are, of course, on the job to keep Jane safe with the help of Mr. Barlett and Mark Trevor.

I would consider this book, overall, to be a romantic suspense with the uncomfortable chemistry between the teenage Jane and Mark Trevor brewing on the surface...with promises of more to come.

This book is just "okay." I love the growth of Jane's character. Eve's character seemed more damsel in distress than she deserves. And, Joe's character was more bodyguard and paperwork than previous titles...what happened to the gritty strength of the ex-SEAL? And why wasn't Logan called for backup protection? ( )
