Calculated in Death[]

  • As Eve and Peabody are walking back to the car after interviewing Brandy Dyson, Eve hears a faint whine and feels a pressure thump into her back, between her shoulder blades. She realizes she’s been stunned, but the magic coat blocked it, so she knocks Peabody down, comes up with her weapon, and sees the six-four, two-fifty while male (Clinton Roscoe Frye) with a ski cap, sunshades, scarf, and coat execute a quick pivot and run. She chases the killer, but loses him when he grabs a toddler (Chuckie) off the ground, coldcocks the father, and throws the shrieking kid through the air. Eve catches the kid, but the force knocks her flat and hard, with the kid’s skull ramming her chest. Peabody lifts the boy from Eve, trying to comfort him, and calls for medicals. The boy is fine but the mother grabs Eve to hug her thanks, causing Eve even more pain.[20]

Devoted in Death[]

  • Mad Fergus was being chased by two uniforms in Cop Central after he got loose. Eve gave chase, hitting him with a right cross, which barely slowed him down. One of his punches glanced off her shoulder, so she went with it, spinning around and landing a side kick to his gut, then stomping hard on his instep, followed by a knee to the balls and another right cross. It didn't take him down, but gave the two uniforms time to catch up and a third one restrained him.[22]

Wonderment in Death[]

Echoes in Death[]

  • Kyle Knightly backhanded Eve when she was serving him with the search warrant for his home. "She could have dodged it - he telegraphed the move - but she wanted the hit, wanted the taste of blood in her mouth." Instead, she shot her foot out, swept it, and took his legs out from under him. He fell hard, as she'd meant him to do."[24]
