Book 21 in the In Death series. Works as a stand alone, but I suspect you'd get more enjoyment out of it if you started with one of the earlier ones.Doctor Wilfred Icove Sr. is murdered while sitting at the desk in his office.

Eve and RoarkeVery interesting debate considering what is going on in my life right now. Perspective. This one read a little more sci-fi than a lot of her other books. But then ending was mag. Very intense!

Possible tiny spoiler at the end of 1st paragraph...I think what I liked so much about this one was twofold. First, as always, Robb's social commentary is superb.
