Technology may be different in 2060 New York, yet the city is still a place of many cultures and great divides. But as ever, some murders receive more attention than others—especially those in which the victim is a prominent businessman, found in his Park Avenue apartment, tied to the bed—and strangled—with cords of black velvet.
It doesn't surprise Lieutenant Eve Dallas that Thomas Anders's scandalous death is a source of titillation and speculation to the public—and of humiliation to his family. But while people in the city are talking about it, those close to Anders aren't so anxious to do the same. With some help from her billionaire husband, Roarke, Eve's soon knocking on doors—or barging through them—to find answers.
But the facts don't add up. Physical evidence suggests that the victim didn't struggle. The security breach in the apartment indicates that the killer was someone known to the family, but everyone's alibi checks out. Was this a crime of passion in a kinky game gone wrong—or a meticulously planned execution? It's up to Dallas to solve a case in which strangers may be connected in unexpected, and deadly, ways.

This book was amazing for me. I was mildly curious about the sudden need of help from Baxter but the moment Roarke caught the connection for me things became easy and I was certain about the killer. The mystery this time was easy enought, but Eve had a hard to connect the dots and make the case solid.
I really liked this story and Eve is again in the middle of dangerous woman parties, now we two of her friends getting married and Roarke decided to help by lending the big yard for the wedding day, of course Eve was extra nervous about this, but I always love her interactions with friends.
