    About this audiobook

    A merciless killer on the hunt...an innocent child in his sights...a woman driven to the edge to stop him...

    The killer knows Eve Duncan all too well. He knows the pain she feels for her murdered daughter, Bonnie, whose body has never been found. He knows that as one of the nation's top forensic sculptors she'll insist on identifying the nine skeletons unearthed on a bluff near Georgia's Talladega Falls. He knows she won't be able to resist the temptation of believing that one of those skeletons might be her daughter's. But that is only the beginning of the killer's sadistic game. He wants Eve one on one, and he'll use his ace in the hole to make sure she complies. And he won't stop playing until he claims the prize he wants most: Eve's life.

      I read the ebook version of this from the library even though I do have a paperback edition. It was pretty good. There was a nice twist that really got me. I would like to read the next book in the series eventually.

      This is the second book, in the Eve Duncan Forensics Series, published Sept 1999. Its been a year now since, Logan, billionaire owner of Logan Computers, with the help of Eve uncovered that the President of United States was an imposter. The First Lady used a double, aided by plastic surgery, to replace her husband, who died of cancer shortly after taking office. It was done to ensure his programs would be carried out but also allowed her to retain the power of the Presidential Office. (The Face of Deception) Eve has been recovering on Logan's private island, south of Tahiti. We begin with the authorities finding eight bodies including a child at Talladega Falls, Georgia because of the rains and the mud slide. Pathology Dept., Atlanta, determined the child was seven or eight, female, and probably Caucasian. Joe Quinn, lieutenant detective Atlanta P.D. has come to the island, to bring Eve home, to identify the child, by working on the skull. Eve does forensic sculpting and age progression as well as computer and video superimposition, to identify the dead from their skulls, to find the lost ones, as she calls them. Any child's body found could be Eve's daughter, Bonnie, who at age seven, was murdered and her body was never found. Joe, her best friend, is always looking for Bonnie, to bring her home to Eve, in the hopes it will finally bring her the peace she needs. Events lead in a strange direction when the child's body goes missing from the Atlanta morgue and a professed serial killer makes his self known to Eve. He calls himself Dom and leads her to believe he is the one response for killing Bonnie. He aligns her with a 10 year old girl, living in foster care, as the reincarnated Bonnie. Eve and the girl are targets in his game. FBI Agent Robert Spiro heads the investigation to find Dom. When Eve finally confronts the serial killer you will not believe who it is. Through the book you are kept on the edge wondering what is going to happen next. This is another excellent read by Iris Johansen.

      Eve Duncan uses Sarah & her cadavar finding dog, Monty, to seach for her daughter, Bonnie while a killer stalks her. Her adopted daughter, Jane is just inroduced into the series as a street child

      Surprisingly, I really didn't care for this. This is the first book in the Eve Duncan series I've read, but I don't think missing that first book is why I didn't like it. I just didn't relate to Eve, and maybe my brain kept wanting her to be Eve Dallas. All of her relationships with other people seemed awkward. I also expected the forensic sculpting to be a larger part of the story. I won't bother with the rest of this series.

      I've read these out of order so some of what I know about the characters makes this interesting. The second of the Eve Duncan stories this one concentrates on the change in relationships between herself and the two men in her life, Logan and Joe. This is also the story where Jane and Sarah meet with the others, so a pivotal story in the series for continuity.This killer taunts Eve with her daughter's death and leads her on a merry chase trying to find who he is before he kills again. It was interesting but I have to wonder that a killer who had spent so many years escaping from issues would suddenly find himself with a need to taunt someone who was so connected with the investigation. Still it kept the story going and I suspected almost everyone before the killer was unmasked (unfortunately a rarity these days with a lot of thrillers).Enjoyable read, some minor caveats about how suitable some of the investigators are to investigating.

      The killing Game is a sequel. I have not read the first book, but you can tell the writter expects you to have. Though I found not knowing all that transpired before was not an impediment to enjoying the book. The heroine is Eve Duncan who is an foresnic sculpter. We learn that she has two men that would do anything for her. Quinn, the homicide detective, that gets her invloved in our story, by letting her know of the uncovered body of a young girl. A girl that may be here dead daughter. And Logan, a Bill Gates type, that wants only to shelter her. And has done a good job of it by having taken her to a private island in the pacific. The numerous bodies found of course makes the news. And the killer not only see's that some of his kills have been uncovered. But that Eve is being brought in to help reconstruct one of the faces. Of course the reconstruction is to be of the little girl she thinks may be her daughter. But the killer steals the bones and calls Eve. He calls himself Dom and this is where the sick game begins. Dom explains to Eve that he was the killer of her daughter. And that he was going to kill anther girl who could be her daughter reincarnated...It is a race. Can Eve solve all the puzzles that Dom sets for her and keep him intrigued. Or will he just kill the girl and her. This book is a page turner and will keep your interest.

      Impossible to accept for reasons that would give away the plot. So many problems with this book, not the least of which is why two fine gentlemen continue to pursue a flighty. ungrateful bitch of a woman with little to no redeeming qualities. The book becomes readable to its unlikely conclusion, if for no other reason, then to see how really awful it is; One star at least for that

      Excellent entry in the Eve Duncan series. Really enjoying these books. The tension that builds throughout the book, as well as the intrigue and plot twists, keep you interested and unable to put the book down. Really good, suspenseful read.
