Bad Habits – the long-awaited sequel to Sarah Evans’ rom-com-crime novel, Operation Paradise, is here. A freezer full of body parts is the tip of the criminal iceberg for intrepid Western Australian Detective Inspector Eve Rock. The festive season has spawned a spate of bizarre crimes which, at least, reassures Eve that others’ bad habits far exceed her own. It also gives her a watertight excuse to avoid her dysfunctional family, and to spend time with her two gorgeous colleagues and would-be lovers, Quinn Fox and his son Adam. A win-win situation. Eve usually relishes solving crimes, but she’s less keen when she’s the target and the boundaries between work and home become nastily blurred.
