WHAT ELSE BUT THE BEST

I could never give J.D. Robb (Nora Roberts) anything but a high score. She has never failed to deliver the best in reading. My interest is always held from the first line to the last. Her characters have become a part of my life. Eve and Rourke are wonderful and Peabody is a hoot. Once again we work with Eve to discover the killer and this time it was personal for her. You will not be disappointed.

Can't Get Enough

I absolutely love reading J.D. Robb's books. I have read the very first book she has written all the way through to Memory in Death. I just can't get enough. The characters are wonderful and all people you can relate to. There is always a Mavis, Eve and a Peabody that one knows. But the thrilling part is that they take you right to the scene of the crime and you're part of the team throughout the story. The plots are always great and leaves you grasping for more and what's going to happen next. The only thing that I regret is that J.D. Robb just doesn't write fast enough. I definitely need more than one book a year.

Decent Read

MY first J.D. Robb book and I found it started out very strong and quick paced. Slowed quite a bit two thirds of the way and the ending was predictable.

Great once again

The "In Death" series are my favorite and look forward to the release of each one. This one was really good as we find out more about Dallas as a little girl. The ending was perdictable pretty quickly into the book, but a great read no matter what.
I hear that these are going to be made into a movie and casting will be huge. Who in the world can play sexy Roarke??

The things I put off when a new In Death book comes out...

I'm so glad that J. D. Robb (also known as Nora Roberts) is a prolific writer, as it means that I normally don't have long to wait between episodes of the In Death series. In her latest, Memory In Death, Lieutenant Eve Dallas is confronted with one of her more emotionally trying cases to date... the murder of her foster mother.

Christmas 2059 is rolling around, and Dallas is trying to clean up a scene where a Santa flew out a window hyped up on drugs. Just another day at the office until she gets back to the station, only to find a woman waiting for her there. This lady claims that she's Eve's foster mother, a person that Eve hated with a passion. She gets tossed out, and Eve starts dealing with the emotional turmoil of reliving her past (which is gruesome). The reason for the woman's visit becomes clear, however, when she shows up at Roarke's office and attempts to blackmail him and Dallas to the tune of $2 million to not turn over files pertaining to her abusive childhood. Roarke also throws her out, and promises to kill her with his bare hands if she doesn't leave New York immediately. Problem is, someone beats him to it, and she's found murdered in her hotel. Eve ends up first on the scene, and really should dismiss herself from the case. But she feels it's her duty to stand up for the victim, regardless of how she feels about the person. There's no clear clues as to who might have done her in, but Eve's gut says that her son and daughter-in-law, vacationing with the lady, are somehow tied in...

As I've stated on just about every other In Death review, I really love this series. I started this book on a Saturday morning, and it was done by Saturday night. I won't even think about the things I *should* have gotten done that day that remained unfinished. This storyline fills out more of Eve's childhood, from the point where she killed her abusive father until she left foster care. It's been alluded to in the past, but never fleshed out in this detail. And even though the original meeting threw her for a loop, I got the feeling that confronting this ghost from her past might also help her deal with the nightmares of her father. Just a guess... As always, well written and an extremely enjoyable read.

And when's the next one coming out???
