PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Burke s third white-knuckle thriller finds NYPD Det. Ellie Hatcher (after Angel s Tip) and her partner, J.J. Rogan, investigating the murder of NYU student Megan Gunther, who s the target of threatening posts on a college gossip Web site. The death of bodyguard Robert Robo Mancini, whose bullet-ridden corpse turns up in a swanky new building, the 212, built by Sam Sparks, the high-powered Manhattan real-estate developer Robo worked for, ups the ante. When Sam makes it clear that the police won t have access to any company records, Ellie s interest is piqued. As she and J.J. try to piece together Megan s life, they discover a link between the student and a recently murdered real estate agent. With her usual tenacity, Ellie pursues leads that put both her career and her life at risk. Burke expertly weaves real-life headlines into her plot particularly the Craig s List Killer and the slew of recent political scandals without ever sacrificing originality.
