Book Summary

 

It was just another after-work happy-hour bar downtown, where business professionals unwound with a few drinks . . .until something went terribly wrong. And after twelve minutes of chaos and violence, eighty people lay dead.

Lieutenant Eve Dallas is trying to sort out the inexplicable events. Surviving witnesses talk about seeing things—monsters and swarms of bees. They describe sudden, overwhelming feelings of fear and rage and paranoia. When forensics gives its report, the mass delusions make more sense: It appears the
bar patrons were exposed to a cocktail of chemicals and illegal drugs that could drive anyone to temporary insanity—if not kill them outright.

But that doesn’t explain who would unleash such horror—or why. And if Eve can’t figure it out fast, it could happen again, anytime, anywhere. Because it’s airborne. . . .

 

My Review

Reading this series, I feel like I’m home. This genre is my first love. It mixes sci fi with crime thrillers. I love this series just so much.

I wasn’t blown away by this one, nor was I disappointed. It’s hard to create the romantic magic of the series early on when things were a mystery. At the same time, the crime mystery part was really interesting.

It was a solid read and I kept reading on through and look forward to the next one. Nora Roberts aka J.D. Robb does an amazing job with her cast in crew in the series. I could only hope this would reach tv series status assuming it was cast well.

Overall, I liked it. I love Roarke and for those who haven’t read, get to it.

Audio Review

Susan Ericksen does this series proud.  I love her voices for the main characters.  There were a lot of side character so some of the minor, minor character began to sound the same but it was forgivable.

My book boyfriend, Roarke. (My book husband I should say. After Christian Grey that is, lol)
