This time it's personal -- for the killer as well as for Dallas and Roarke.
The "shadow" is a professional killer who was Roarke's childhood nemesis. Roarke, being Roarke, has been keeping tabs on Cobbe because that's the smart thing to do. As long as Cobbe stays on his side of the Atlantic, Roarke is going to let sleeping mongrel slimebag dogs lie.
(Hey, don't mess with my Roarke and Dallas!)
But when Cobbe shows up at a crime scene Dallas is investigating, and Roarke happens to be there because the call interrupts an evening out, and Cobbe lets Roarke see him ... the gloves are off. The challenge has been made, and this time neither one is going to stop until Cobbe is caught, or he destroys everything precious to Roarke -- starting with the people most important to him. Like, duh, who would be stupid arrogant enough to go after Eve Dallas?
Just shows how rage and jealousy will cloud your thinking.
Another fast-paced hunt and battle for justice long-denied. Heh ... I already have the next in the series on order at the library ... too bad I have to wait until next year!
