Shadow Play (Eve Duncan #19) by Iris Johansen

An explosive new Eve Duncan thriller from the New York Times #1 bestselling author
Eve Duncan is the most sought-after artist in the field of forensic sculpting. Dedicated to her work ever since her daughter Bonnie was taken and killed at the age of seven, Eve feels a sense of duty to those whose lives were lost and whose bones are now in her hands. When a sheriff in California contacts her with a request for help on the reconstruction of the skull of a nine-year-old girl whose body has been buried for eight years, his intensity and investment in the case puzzle her. But when the ghost of the girl begins communicating with her, Eve finds herself wrapped up in the case more intensely than she could have ever imagined. Not since Bonnie has Eve had such an experience, and suddenly she finds herself determined to solve the murder and help the little girl find peace. Except that the killer is still out there, and he knows Eve is on the case. And he won’t rest until anything and anyone that could reveal his identity is eliminated...

Review: I was given a copy of Shadow Play from NetGalley for an honest review and this is my review.
All I can say is OMG. Even though I had an inkling about how this book was going to end because Johansen has been hinting at it for awhile it still blew my mind to see it in print. I loved it and that is all I am going to say because I am not going to share spoilers.
As for the rest of this book it was another excellent Eve Duncan book. To me this series seems to get better with each book and this was not an exception. The chemistry with Eve and Joe was perfect and it is always nice when characters from previous books come back to help with current cases. This particular case was very interesting and had a new dimension for Eve that made her character all that more stronger.
This an outstanding book that would get nothing other then five out of five stars and be put on a must read list.
