This is the first book in a series with female protagonist Eve Dallas. Found in an alleyway as a child, bruised, broken and with amensia, she grew up to be a cop which a single mindedness for justice. It's a great start to her 'in death series'. My only complaint is that the sexuality in her book is less about enhancing the story and borders(or crosses) the line of soft porn. I like soft porn, but not necessarily in a murder mystery. Her story takes place somewhat in the future, but is so well written, it doesn't have a 'science fiction' feel. She develops her characters well and I looked forward to reading more about them in her subsequent books. I enjoyed every page and am now on the fourth book (Rapture in death)in this series.
