Publisher's summary

In New York Times best-selling author Richard Castle's newest novel, an illegal immigrant falls from the sky and NYPD Homicide Detective Nikki Heat's investigation into his death quickly captures the imagination of her boyfriend, the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jameson Rook. When he decides to work the case with Heat as his next big story, Nikki is at first happy to have him ride along. Yes, she must endure Rook's usual wild conspiracy speculations and adolescent wisecracks, but after reuniting following his recent assignment abroad, she's glad for the entertainment, the chance to bounce ideas, and just to be close to him again and feel the old spark rekindle. But when Rook's inquiry concludes that Detective Heat has arrested the wrong man for the murder, everything changes.

Balancing her high stakes job with a complicated romance has been a challenge ever since Nikki fell for the famous reporter. Now, her relationship lurches from mere complexity into sharp conflict over the most high-risk case of her career. Set against the raging force of Hurricane Sandy as it pounds New York, Heat battles an ambitious powerbroker, fights a platoon of urban mercenaries, and clashes with the man she loves. Detective Heat knows her job is to solve murders. She just worries that solving this one will be the death of her relationship.

Best Castle

This was the longest and best Castle book I’ve ever read. The extra time allows extra to develop both Characters and story.

If you live the show Castle you will enjoy this book

Fun listen to. I loved the show and this was a fun read. I do t know many cops that actually get into as many perilous situations but still fun as a work of fiction.

A good story, not a great one.

A decent story, but Nikki seems very alone through most of it which is a bummer. Also, another drawback is there doesn't seem to be as much of the banter.

Not too shabby

Like all the Nikki Heat's, this one was hard to put down. Well written, funny and thoughtful.

Nailed it!

This is the best in the series so far. The narrator is wonderful! He has the same intonation as Nathan. The twists in this book kept you guessing up till the end.

Fun Story

I enjoyed this entry into the series. I think the relationship and case drama added a nice new element to keep the story fresh.

Love these books! Great way to stay connected to the show

I've been listening to all of these for a while now and I just love them. The writing and the stories are both terrific. Fun, suspenseful and a nice companion to the show. Really excited that more books are being released!!
