Payback in Death: An Eve Dallas Novel by J. D. Robb begins with Roarke and Eve Dallas on an incredible vacation. That tranquility
is ended just hours after they arrived back in New York City as she is summoned
to a death. Dispatch makes it clear she is needed and she goes.
Lieutenant Donald Webster of Internal
Affairs requested her to come to the home of retired IAB Captain Martin
Greenleaf and his wife, Elizabeth. There has been a death. She knows Webster
and Greenleaf were tight. Greenleaf was Webster’s father figure as well as a
mentor, so this news no doubt has hit him pretty hard. Maybe he asked for
Dallas because he just reacted or maybe he had a good reason.
He had a good reason.
It was clearly a staged suicide. The
question is- who did it and why? As Greenleaf worked decades in the Internal
Affairs Bureau, there are many that could have had the motive to kill him. Or
was it something more personal?
It is going to take Dallas, Peabody, and others much of the fast moving read to figure that out. A journey well worth taking set in the summer of 2061.
