The first in this series was HADES, which I highly recommend you read before reading EDEN.
This time around, Eden's partner, Frank Bennett, has been recouping from injuries he received in HADES. He's also drinking way too much and is being forced by the department to see the shrink before being allowed back to work.
Meanwhile, Eden sends Frank to her father .... he has an investigative job involving the disappearance of an old flame from many years before.
At the same time, Eden is going undercover at a semi-cult to find what happened to 3 missing women. putting her life in extreme danger.
The book follows both these case, plus it takes the reader to Hades' beginning, how he became what he is.
I found it interesting, but not as exceptional as HADES. At times I found it confusing over who was where doing what and when. The characters are still very intriguing but I can't see this series going any further than it has.
I did give it a 4 star rating ... I felt I had a vested interest in seeing where the author took the characters.
My thanks to NetGalley / Kensington Books for supplying the digital copy in exchange for an honest review.

I can't give this anything more than 2* rating
There are about 4 storylines going on here and they don't all connect at the end, the part written in italics is about Hades beginning and I found that boring, Frank has become addicted to pills and booze and Eden goes undercover
I really thought this was just a big mess and some of it was just Fox meandering all over the place so I skipped a lot of it
There is a 3rd book and I'll try it at some point but it'll have to be better than this if the series continues.
