New York Police Lieutenant Eve Dallas takes on another complicated crime: former Senator Edward Mira is kidnapped and murdered. Eva suspects that the attackers' motives are personal, not political. These guesses are confirmed when a poster with a message that justice has been done is found along with Edward's body. Now the city's best investigator is determined to uncover all the secrets of the deceased and find out what enemies he might have made during his long career. We have to find out what the high-ranking friends of the deceased are hiding. And if a police badge does not help Eva get a pass where others cannot go, her millionaire husband will come to the rescue.
