Visions in Death / Survivor in Death
Visions in Death
On one of the city’s hottest nights, New York Police Lieutenant Eve Dallas is sent to Central Park—and into a hellish new investigation. The victim is found on the rocks, just above the still, dark water of The Lake in Central Park. Around her neck is a single red ribbon. Her hands are posed, as if in prayer. But it is the eyes—removed with such precision, as if done by the careful hand of a surgeon—that have Dallas most alarmed. As more bodies turn up, each with the same defining scars, Eve is frantic for answers. Against her instincts, she accepts help from a psychic who offers one vision after another—each with shockingly accurate details of the murders. And when partner and friend Peabody is badly injured after escaping an attack, the stakes are raised. Are the eyes a symbol? A twisted religious ritual? A souvenir? With help from her husband, Roarke, Dallas must uncover the killer’s motivation before another vision becomes another nightmare....
Survivor in Death
No affairs. No criminal connections. No DNA. No clues. Eve Dallas may be the best cop in the city—not to mention having the lavish resources of her husband Roarke at her disposal—but the Swisher case has her baffled. The family members were murdered in their beds with brutal, military precision. The state-of-the-art security was breached, and the killers used night vision to find their way through the cozy middle-class house. Clearly, Dallas is dealing with pros. The only mistake they made was to overlook the nine-year-old girl cowering in the dark in the kitchen.... Now Nixie Swisher is an orphan—and the sole eyewitness to a seemingly inexplicable crime. Kids are not Dallas's strong suit. But Nixie needs a safe place to stay, and Dallas needs to solve this case. Not only because of the promise she made to Nixie. Not only for the cause of justice. But also to put to rest some of her own darkest memories—and deepest fears. With her partner Peabody on the job, and watching her back—and with Roarke providing the kind of help only he can give—Lieutenant Eve Dallas is running after shadows, and dead-set on finding out who's behind them.

Pour une fois cette aventure m’a tenue en haleine. Un tueur en série qui viole et arrache les yeux de ses victimes sévit dans les rues de New York, le lieutenant Dallas doit l’empêcher de nuire, une course contre la mort.
Bon j’ai toujours les mêmes reproches sur Ève Dallas mais j’ai beaucoup aimé cette enquête et vers la fin je ne pouvais plus le lâcher.

Love to be in this world 3rd time reading. Survivor I actually cried a few times. This book makes me wonder if Roarke and Eve will ever have children. I understand it would disturb the flow.
