About this listen
Who is after her, and what do they want so badly they'll kill anyone in their way? That's what Jane is determined to find out, without the help of the police, the FBI, or her adoptive parents, forensic sculptor Eve Duncan, and her husband, Joe Quinn, of the Atlanta PD, because whoever is after her won't hesitate to hurt those she loves the most. Now Jane will go on the run with the only man who may be more dangerous than those who are pursuing her. A smuggler, a con man, and who knew what else, Mark Trevor had his own mysterious reasons for wanting to keep Jane safe and out of the hands of a killer obsessed with a 2,000-year-old mystery that could rock the modern-day world.
Orphaned at an early age, Jane grew up the hard way, but she was given a new life, a loving family, and a chance to pursue her interest in one of the greatest archaeological finds ever unearthed. Now someone was trying to destroy that new life before it could even get started. The past is returning with the kind of vengeance that knows no mercy. The countdown has already begun, and it's approaching zero faster than anyone thinks.

Story
A music therapist who thrives on helping others, Kendra Michaels cherishes the ordinary life she has achieved after stem cell surgery restored her sight. The skills she perfected during those sightless years - the ability to pick up the most subtle audio, olfactory, and tactile cues in the world around her - coupled with her laser-sharp mind - have made her a uniquely potent observer and problem solver. Kendra’s uncanny way of connecting the dots is as baffling to law enforcement as it is legendary.

Great!
Iris Johansen done it again! A great book! It is very helpful if you've read the previous Eve Duncan books, especially "Blind Alley" because this is ties into the story. As a Iris Johansen fan, I absolutely love this. Bernadette Dunn is a wonderful narrator, she makes you feel like you are in the middle of the events and not at home listenting to a book....... Great Job!

Romance novel or adventure novel
I went into this expecting an adventure but found it as much a romance novel. That disappointed me a little. A much younger woman fantasizing about a swashbuckling older man. Trembling hands. Breathlessness. All too sappy for my taste.

One of her best
I like that this is an Eve Duncan book, but it doesn't revolve around Eve. Shows how great a writer Iris is.
Loved the reader. She was great with all the accents and voices. Really brought this one alive.
The book was solid. A few loose ends, but if I know Iris, she will revisit these characters in anther book and clear up those loose ends. Another way one can tell if the writer is good. Love the cohesiveness throughout her books when it comes to her characters, even her stand alone book characters are included in some of her series ones.
JUST A GREAT AND SOLID BOOK... FROM 1 END 2 THE OTHER...
