Portrait in Death by J.D. Robb
I read Portrait in Death many moons ago so it was great to revisit it. This is one of the sharper installments in the series, IMHO. Eve and Roarke tracking down a serial killer who ends up murdering someone who ends up being close to another person in the series was I think a good choice. I remember my shock at what happened and the fallout from it. It was great to see this brought up again in later parts of the series and I […]

Well I think that I will wrap up my “In Death” mini-reading spree with these. I will probably come back to the series to “catch up” so to speak with my reviews down the line. I have read the entire series and novellas, I just never had much of the energy to go back and post reviews on Amazon. A few years back there was a huge blow up in the “In Death” community when there was a big issued with a huge continuity error […]

Well one thing about COVID and the state of the world, all I have been able to do past few days is read. I have been able to get through my library backlog, but I also really really wanted a comfort read. I tried to start The Chronicles of Narnia and started to get annoyed so set that series aside (will get back to it around Christmas I think) and then wandered around my shelves at home and was like I really need something […]
Abandoned in Death by J.D. Robb
So. I went back and forth on the rating on this one because there were some bright spots, and then something would happen which would work my nerves. Bright spots were we finally have a Louise/Charles interaction after like 20 books. We have Mira actually doing her job and we don’t have Eve in there just somehow being ten steps ahead of her. We don’t have much of Roarke in this one. In fact it took a while for an “In Death” book for him […]
Forgotten In Death by J.D. Robb
Somewhere along the way, I missed this particular entry in the In Death series, J.D. Robb’s long-running set of novels set in New York in the not-so-distant future. There’s a whole cast of recurring characters, and checking in on them feels a bit like visiting old friends. In this particular installment, Lt. Eve Dallas and her partner Peabody are called to a construction site when the body of a transient woman is found wrapped in plastic in a construction dumpster. The site is next door […]
Immortal in Death by J.D. Robb
Glory in Death by J.D. Robb
These two whodunnits follow the comforting pattern of police procedurals, with the added twist of futuristic elements and the engaging romance of protagonist Lieutenant Eve Dallas and her lover, the wealthy, connected Roarke. It’s easy to see why there are 55 books in the “In Death” series (although I personally am going to take a hiatus after overdosing on this series in the last month). In Glory in Death, Dallas investigates the murder of the prominent Prosecuting Attorney, Cicely Powers, whom she knows personally (and who, […]
