There's another body on a slab, Dallas. Dirty cop or not, he's dead, and she's responsible. She has to be shut down before she decides to clean house again.' Lieutenant Eve Dallas is about to come up against her most formidable criminal yet: Lieutenant Renee Oberman. Oberman runs a tight ship in the Illegals department of the New York Police and Security Department; she's also the daughter of a NYPSD legend. After eighteen years on the force, Oberman is efficient, decorated - and utterly corrupt. When Eve's partner Peabody overhears a damning conversation between Oberman and one of her flunkies, Peabody, Eve and her husband Rourke are soon on her case. Together, they must track down the hard evidence needed to bring Oberman and all her dirty cops down - knowing all the while that she will kill anyone who gets in her way.

Please note that I gave this 4.5 stars out of 5 stars and rounded it to 5 stars on Goodreads.The only reason why I did not give this one 5 stars was because the speech that Dallas pours all over Mira later on was too much. I may have rolled my eyes a lot. But everything else in the story works perfe...
Wow, hold tight because this is what I'm talkin' about when I say this was a wild, fast, fun ride. I had a blast reading this book. There were times when I laughed so hard people would stare at me in the bus envious because they were not in on the joke or there were the times I had to stop pedaling ...
February 23, 2011 - Enjoyable as usual. Does not include as much interpersonal conflict between Eve and Roarke or her friends/colleagues as some of the series, but the relationships are still there and very real. And the plot is good. Fast paced. You know from the beginning who the villains are,...
This was a solid read until the ending. I liked how Eve was weaving her magic to bring down the bad guys, but then it just kind of fizzled at the end. I guess because of the enormity of the crime, I wish we could have been given the results after the arrest.
