In 2059 New York City, technology and humanity still fight for their place in the world, and NYPSD lieutenant Eve Dallas searches the darkest corners of Manhattan for an elusive killer with a passion for collecting souls...
The summer of 2059 has been long, hot--and bloody. On one of the city's warmest nights, a call from dispatch sends New York police lieutenant Eve Dallas to Central Park--and into a hellish new investigation. The victim was found on the rocks, just above the still, dark water of the lake. She wore nothing but a red ribbon tied around her neck. Her hads were posed as if in prayer. But it is the eyes--removed with such precision, as if by the careful hand of a surgeon--that have Dallas most alarmed.
As more bodies turn up, each with the same defining scars, Eve is frantic for answers. Against her instincts, she accepts help from a psychic, who offers one vision after another--each with shockingly accurate deails of the murders. And when Eve's partner and friend Peabody is badly injured after escaping an attack, the stakes are raised. Are the eyes a symbol? A twisted religious ritual? A souvenir? With the help of her husband, Roarke, Dallas must uncover the killer's motive before another vision becomes another nightmare.
