Lieutenant Eve Dallas of the New York Police Department is called to the scene of Craig Foster's sudden death—a seemingly ordinary history teacher whose homemade lunch turns out to be laced with ricin. As she delves into the classroom and its small private school community, Dallas uncovers startling secrets held by Foster's colleagues. The case becomes even more tangled as Dallas must juggle her professional duty with personal turmoil, involving her husband Roarke's indifferent relationship with a former flame and the looming threat of another death. With innocence appearing as a deceptive façade, Dallas seeks to solve the murder before it further threatens her career and marriage.
