This was twisted but captivating. And as usual, Eve and crew finish it out with a bang. Absolutely love Roarke and Eve together.

Excellent as always!

I am a social psychologist and I work with teams in organizations so I do not have the clinical insights that are in this book; but, I have observed persons in organizations display “alternative personas” when placed in different circumstances;e.g. with customers, with bosses, and even with family. While the personality is not “split” in these cases, the difference is dramatic enough to make this book very believable. Nice work!

Excellent reading as always!!

Different kind of Lieutenant Dallas novel. Part of the book was a 3 and other parts were 4/5. A lot of back and forth in time which was a little confusing. Good investigating novel and as usual great interview techniques.

Another great book by JD Robb

It’s was a easy read, but it is not one of her best. The ending was too abrupt.

The In Death series is always so well written but what makes them 5 star is catching up with the lives of Dallas and the crew. This book is missing that feature with just a few lines about Mavis’s house thrown in.

Something about this book started me off wrong and I’m just realizing what it is……. We all know Eve is great at what she does but to have such a fully developed theory in the first 75 pages based off of what she found by then is a bit of a stretch. There are no less than 10 other alternatives that would fit the facts and evidence collected by that point but she jumped straight to what she did. The book was still entertaining but lended toward lazy writing by just jumping straight where it did.

Eve Dallas is tired, Roark is tired, JD Robb is exhausted and New York has run out of interesting crime. Whe the reader is more interested in the details of house remodeling and tile selection than in the “crime” it is time to think about wrapping up this series. On the upside, none of the main players are physically maimed or otherwise in peril, so that’s one happy circumstance. And thank goodness there was no maudlin grousing about the urban wars this time, but devoted readers of the whole series (like me) will find nothing particularly satisfying or intriguing in this In Death outing.
