About this listen

Summer, 2059. A man wearing a cape and a top hat approaches a prostitute on a dark, New York City street. Minutes later, the woman is dead. Left at the scene is a letter addressed to Lieutenant Eve Dallas, inviting her to play his game and unveil his identity. He signs it, "Jack."

Now Dallas is in pursuit of a murderer who knows as much about the history of serial killers as she does. He has studied the most notorious and the most vicious slayings in modern times. But he also wants to make his own mark. And he has chosen his victim: Eve Dallas. And all Eve knows is that he plans to mimic the most infamous murderers of all - starting with Jack the Ripper.

Love the series and the performance!

I'm a long time fan of the in Death series.
This book not only had a killer plot that really captured you but there was also a lot of character development in this book. you gain a deeper understanding of both Dallas and some of her relationships.

Quite good

It's definitely one of the best In Death novels so far

Many characters, and a bit more complicated than past books

One criticism would be that I think the book(s) revolve too much so around Dallas, in that even if she's wrong, the book makes wants the reader to feel as though she's right. They're fun books, but it's important to keep this in mind when reading..

Performer is excellent as usual
