#49 Desperation in Death by J.D. Robb

[missingvolume]

 

Eve is working the case of a young girl found dead in the park. She had been missing for months but the clues at the site peg her being kidnapped for months and not a runaway. With DNA found on her that matches a young runaway, the crime scene was set to peg the runaway as the murderer, but Eve knows better and quickly Eve and Peabody know they are dealing with a child sex ring.  The case is hard on Eve, and she is hard on everyone around her and even madder when the people closest to her try to ease any of the burden on her.  The good guys win in the end and there is some nice comeuppance to at least one of the villains in the book.
