Eve's name has a made a Christmas list, but it's not for being naughty or nice. It's for putting a serial killer behind bars. Now the escaped madman has her in his sights. With her husband Roarke at her side, Eve must stop the man from exacting his bloody vengeance-or die trying.

 

Review:

A short tale set immediately after the events of Holiday in Death.

There is clearly no rest for the wicked good cop because no sooner has Eve Dallas got rid of one psycho, there's another one escaped from jail with his sights set directly on her. One she remembers very well from when she put him away 3 years ago. And when his "Christmas list" of victims has more than one familiar name on it, Eve decides that this time, she will take no prisoners.

Favourite quote:

“You annoy me, Eve.” “Why? Because I’m right?” “Yes. And snotty about it.” But his smile warmed a little. “Why did you call?” “So I could be snotty. 

4 Stars! ★★★★
