Kindred in death. J.D. Robb. 2009.

Revenge. Retribution. A killer on the loose.

A phone call from up high interrupts Eve’s plans to have a lazy day with Roarke: the teenage daughter of Captain Jonah McMasters, head of the NYPD drug squad, has been found raped and strangled. 

A terrifying video of Deena, bloody and beaten beyond recognition hints at a link to a criminal in McMasters’s own past, but searching through his cases leads Eve nowhere - until another rape-murder, and another video, reveals the killer’s deadly intent: merciless retribution in the cruellest way possible. 

Racing against the clock, Eve and her team must work fast to identify the next victim of a killer who will stop at nothing.
