Introduction

Eve wasn''t sure what it said about her that she was more comfortable in the morgue than a baby boutique. And she didn''t care. The scent of death was the familiar.

Rushing to the murder scenes of a tortured young woman, Eve is far more at home than when organising best friend Mavis''s baby shower.

And then one of Mavis''s guests - the young, pregnant Tandy - disappears into thin air. Eve steps in, but when the facts begin to blur with the earlier murders, she unearths a chilling trail of deception and cold-blooded greed, leading to a terrifying hunt to find Tandy before time runs out.
