Summary

Eve Duncan is in a fight against time while trying to unearth one of the lost secrets of the world's history in this installment from #1 New York Times bestselling author Iris Johansen。

Archaeologist Riley Smith has been obsessed with Helen of Troy since she was a small girl, trailing her professor father all over the world in search of the tomb of the world’s most beautiful woman。 Professor Smith set out to prove that, instead of a myth, Helen had been a living, breathing queen who inspired Homer to write The Iliad。

Forensic sculptor Eve Duncan has the unusual skills needed to recreate the face that launched a thousand ships—revealing Helen’s true appearance for the first time in history。 But convincing Eve to take on the challenge will be difficult because her efforts will come at great personal cost。

When tomb raiders murder Riley’s father, she is determined to reach the burial site first, get revenge for his death, and enlist Eve’s help。 Also on hand to help is her father's associate Michael Cade, but he has his own secret agenda when it comes to finding Helen。

Now both Riley and Eve are in danger and in a race across one of the most remote parts of the world。 At least they have their trust in each other as they hunt for Helen。

A FACE TO DIE FOR is an intriguing new installment in the Eve Duncan series。 In this one, we begin with Riley, who has grown up with her family around archaeological sites and who, together with her father, has been searching for Helen of Troy's tomb。 Although her father was killed along the way, it has only made Riley more determined to finish their work- and she wants Eve's help in recreating Helen's face。Eve is reluctant to come after the past missions, but her heart is in the field。 What awa A FACE TO DIE FOR is an intriguing new installment in the Eve Duncan series。 In this one, we begin with Riley, who has grown up with her family around archaeological sites and who, together with her father, has been searching for Helen of Troy's tomb。 Although her father was killed along the way, it has only made Riley more determined to finish their work- and she wants Eve's help in recreating Helen's face。Eve is reluctant to come after the past missions, but her heart is in the field。 What awaits is an action-packed journey with danger lurking at every turn。 This was a fast-paced and engaging read with characters fans will recognize from past books and plenty of context for anyone who is new to the series。 Given the plot around Helen of Troy, the title and story seem particularly apt, and it was a clever idea。Riley was a really compelling character right from the start, and I loved the way she and Eve carried this story。 They are really powerful and engaging women, and it was great to get into their lives with all the intrigue and peril。Overall, I would recommend this for fans of Indiana Jones and other action-packed reads with historical context。 A FACE TO DIE FOR is an engaging action/suspense with compelling characters, a clever plot, and plenty for readers to devour。Please note that I received an ARC。 All opinions are my own。 。。。more

I love the Eve Duncan series so I was so happy to get my hands on this book。。Archeologist Riley Smith and her dad were obsessed with finding the tomb of Helen of Troy。 They believed she wasn't a myth but a real queen。 Riley was raised listening to stories of Helen and even dreamed of her。 She can picture her clearly in her mind。Riley wants forensic sculptor Eve Duncan to recreate Helen's face so that she can share it with the world。 They pair up but of course along the way people are trying to k I love the Eve Duncan series so I was so happy to get my hands on this book。。Archeologist Riley Smith and her dad were obsessed with finding the tomb of Helen of Troy。 They believed she wasn't a myth but a real queen。 Riley was raised listening to stories of Helen and even dreamed of her。 She can picture her clearly in her mind。Riley wants forensic sculptor Eve Duncan to recreate Helen's face so that she can share it with the world。 They pair up but of course along the way people are trying to kill them。 All this makes for one action packed book。Thank you @novelsuspects for my arc and this is my honest review。 。。。more

There is nothing better than opening the pages of a new Iris Johansen book。 Especially if it's the latest Eve Duncan novel。 Wow, book number twenty-eight。 That's monumental。 The prologue kicks us off in the heart of the jungle。 Painted with a master's brush I can almost feel the humid air and smell the vegetation。 Little Riley is doing her best to keep her curiosity in check without causing her mother too much grief。And now we settle in a watch Eve Duncan do what she does best。 GAH!
