Hunting Eve/Iris Johansen/385 pgs.

This is the 2nd installment in the latest "Eve Duncan" trilogy. The lst book was about Eve being kidnapped by Jim Doane, and gave background information on him, and his dead son, Kevin. The book ended with Eve having escaped from Doane. This 2nd book picks up where the 1st left off--Doane is trying to recapture Eve so that she can finish the reconstruction of Kevin's skull. Of course, there are additional story lines throughout the book: Eve's lover, Joe, an ex-Seal, is going all out to find her, as is her adopted daughter, Jane. There is also Margaret, who can communicate with animals, and Kendra Michaels, who has astute powers of observation. New to the mix is Lee Zander, a hired killer, and the person Doane wants to kill--Zander killed Doane's son, Kevin. So, there is action, suspense, romance--a good summer read. The last in the trilogy, Silencing Eve, is due to come out Oct. 1st.
