Summary
Lieutenant Eve Dallas puzzles over a bizarre
suicide bombing in a Wall St. office building in
Leverage in Death, the latest in the #1
New York Times bestselling series from J.D.
Robb…
For the airline executives finalizing a merger that would
make news in the business world, the nine a.m. meeting would
be a major milestone. But after marketing VP Paul Rogan
walked into the plush conference room, strapped with
explosives, the headlines told of death and destruction
instead. The NYPSD’s Eve Dallas confirms that Rogan was
cruelly coerced by two masked men holding his family hostage.
His motive was saving his wife and daughter—but what
was the motive of the masked men? Despite the chaos and bad publicity, blowing up one
meeting isn’t going to put the brakes on the merger.
All it’s accomplished is shattering a lot of innocent
lives. Now, with the help of her billionaire husband Roarke,
Eve must untangle the reason for an inexplicable act of
terror, look at suspects inside and outside both
corporations, and determine whether the root of this crime
lies in simple sabotage, or something far more complex and
twisted. ** "Robb again remixes and remasters all the addictively
readable ingredients her readers have come to crave,
including a tough-as-nails protagonist who takes guff from no
one, a plethora of engaging secondary characters who each
play their roles to perfection, a generous dash of hot-as-sin
sex, and a fine-tuned, tautly paced plot that relentlessly
ticks along to the book’s satisfying conclusion."
