Creation in Death: Eve has seen this crime scene before: the artfully arranged body of a young brunette, marked by the signs of prolonged and painful torture. Carved into her torso is the time it took her to die - in hours, minutes, and seconds. And on the third finger of her left hand has been placed a silver ring. Eve is catapulted back to an unsolved case nine years earlier, when ?The Groom? put the city on edge with a killing spree that took the lives of four women in fifteen days. Now The Groom seems to have come back to where he started. Strangers in Death: It doesn't surprise Lieutenant Eve Dallas that Thomas Anders's scandalous death is a source of titillation and speculation for the public - and humiliation for his family. But the facts don't add up. Physical evidence suggests that the victim didn't struggle. The security breach in his highly fortified apartment indicates that the killer was someone close to Anders, but everyone's alibi checks out. Was this a crime of passion - or a carefully planned execution? Salvation in Death: At the most solemn moment of a Catholic funeral Mass, the priest brings the chalice to his lips. Seconds later, he is dead on the altar. For the mourners packed into the pews, Father Miguel Flores's sudden demise is an unimaginable shock. When Detective Lieutenant Eve Dallas confirms that the consecrated wine contained enough potassium cyanide to kill a rhino, she's prepared to plunge in and find out why.
