Nel febbraio del 1984 un Massimo D'Alema trentacinquenne, «giovane dirigente comunista periferico», viene scelto per far parte della delegazione del PCI che parteciperà ai funerali di Jurij Andropov a Mosca. Il diario di quei giorni moscoviti, di cui D'Alema riporta stralci in queste pagine, è un tesoro di scorci e immagini: Pertini che gioca a carte sul volo di Stato, l'impatto con le complessità del cerimoniale sovietico, la solennità delle esequie alla presenza di una pletora di capi di Stato, da Fidel Castro a Margaret Thatcher a Yasser Arafat.

A key witness in a high-profile federal case vanishes from a government safehouse just hours before testifying, leaving behind no sign of forced entry, no clear escape route, and only one cryptic word scrawled across a windowpane: Midnight. FBI Agent Claire Anderson is tasked with investigating the disappearance off the books. The press can’t find out. The Bureau can’t afford a scandal. And her team—S. W. O. R. D., the Special-Washington-Oregon-Regional-Detachment—has just days to uncover what really happened before the entire case unravels.

On Manhattan’s East Side a woman lies dead at the bottom of the stairs, stripped of all her valuables. Most cops might call it a mugging gone wrong, but Lieutenant Eve Dallas knows better. A well-off accountant and a beloved wife and mother, Marta Dickenson doesn’t seem the type to be on anyone’s hit list. But when Eve and her partner, Peabody, find blood inside the building, the lieutenant knows Marta’s murder was the work of a killer who’s trained, but not professional or smart enough to remove all the evidence.

In a decrepit and long-empty New York building, a man begins the demolition process by swinging a sledgehammer into a wall. When the dust clears, he finds two skeletons wrapped in plastic behind it.

His latest real estate project is going to be on hold for a while, because by the time Eve and her crew are finished searching the premises, there are 12 murders to be solved.

When she's taken down just steps away from her apartment, killed with her own weapon, for Eve the victim isn't just "one of us."

Eve has seen this crime scene before: the artfully arranged body of a young brunette, arms spread, palms up, body marked by the signs of prolonged and painful torture. Carved into her torso is the time it took her to die - in hours, minutes, and seconds. And on the third finger of her left hand has been placed a silver ring.
