IMMORTAL IN DEATH

Manhattan. 2058. Lieutenant Eve Dallas, the protagonist in this police procedural, is investigating a "conspiracy of slaughter" fostered by the creation of a new hallucinogenic drug, an illegal yet highly desired sexual stimulant holding a lethal promise of immortality AND providing the motivation for violent murder. With the skill of a full cast, Susan Ericksen adroitly portrays both sides of Eve--the focused, sharp, police interrogator and the soon-to-be-married romantic. She also captures Eve's multimillionaire Irish lover, the wedding-dress designer who is built like a bus, the willowy Pandora, the crusty Detective of Illegals, the single but perpetually hopeful Assistant Officer Peabody, and a publicity-hungry celebrity couple.
