Time of Death (In Death) [Paperback]


I've finished "Time of Death" by J.D. Robb.

Product Description

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author: three popular Eve Dallas stories together for the first time in one volume.


J. D. Robb's In Death novels have been praised as "Law and  Order: SVU - in the future" (Entertainment Weekly). Now, together for the first time in one volume, are three stories that spotlight Lieutenant Eve Dallas doing what she does best: solving crime with skill, integrity, and passion.

Eternity in Death 

A seductive killer is luring in victims with a promise of the impossible - immortality. Eve Dallas must strip away the fantasy to catch the coldhearted madman.

Ritual in Death 

Eve is plunged into the violent aftermath of a ritualistic murder - and into the mind of an alleged witness who can't remember a thing to save his life.

Missing in Death

When a woman disappears from a New York City ferry, it's a case that only Eve Dallas can solve - because the woman didn't jump, and yet she's not on board.

My Review:

Eve was focused and dedicated in these stories.  She was very determined to prove enough evidence that the villains were arrested.  I really enjoyed the way Eve was very through with her investigation and the way her and her team work so well together.

Roarke plays a very big role in helping and providing Eve with evidence and information to solve her crimes.  He also provides some much needed relaxing love making and boy are they hot!

In the first story a very young socialite believes that her lover is a vampire who will make her eternally young and beautiful. Eve and her team visit a vampire nightclub in underground New York.

In the second story Roarke and Eve are attending a party which is gate-crashed by a naked man holding a knife and covered in blood. When Eve follows the blood trail, she finds a young woman ritually slain.

In the third story, it is a locked room mystery set on a ferry boat. The victim and her killer vanish from the ferry. 

4/5
