The chic Manhattan nightspot Du Vin is not the kind of place Eve Dallas would usually patronize, and it's not the kind of bar where a lot of blood gets spilled. But that's exactly what happens one cold February evening.

She calls herself Lady Justice. And once she has chosen a man as her target, she turns herself into a tall blonde or a curvaceous redhead, makes herself as alluring and seductive as possible to them. Once they are in her grasp, they are powerless. The first victim is wealthy businessman Nigel McEnroy. His company’s human resources department has already paid out settlements to a couple of his young victims - but they don’t know that his crimes go far beyond workplace harassment. Lady Justice knows. And in one shocking night of brutality, she makes him pay a much steeper price.

The shots came quickly, silently, and with deadly accuracy. Within seconds, three people were dead at Central Park's ice skating rink. The victims: a talented young skater, a doctor, and a teacher. As random as random can be. Eve Dallas has seen a lot of killers during her time with the NYPSD, but never one like this. After reviewing security videos, it becomes clear that the victims were killed by a sniper firing a tactical laser rifle, who could have been miles away when the trigger was pulled.

While Eve examines a fresh body in Washington Square Park, her husband, Roarke, spots a man among the onlookers he’s known since his younger days on the streets of Dublin. A man who claims to be his half brother. A man who kills for a living - and who burns with hatred for him. Eve is quick to suspect that the victim’s spouse - resentful over his wife’s affair and poised to inherit her fortune - would have happily paid an assassin to do his dirty work. Roarke is just as quick to warn her that if Lorcan Cobbe is the hitman, she needs to be careful.

Gwen Huffman is wealthy, elegant, comforted by her handsome fiancé as she sheds tears over the trauma of finding the body - but why did it take an hour to report it?

For Lieutenant Eve Dallas of the NYPSD, the job is a useful reminder of what she has to be grateful for this season. Hosting Roarke's big Irish family for the holiday may be challenging, but it’s a joyful improvement on her own dark childhood. Other couples aren’t as lucky as Eve and Roarke. The Reinholds, for example, are lying on the floor of their Downing Street apartment, stabbed and bludgeoned almost beyond recognition. Those who knew them are stunned - and even more heartbroken by the overwhelming evidence that they were murdered by their own son.

On Manhattan’s East Side a woman lies dead at the bottom of the stairs, stripped of all her valuables. Most cops might call it a mugging gone wrong, but Lieutenant Eve Dallas knows better. A well-off accountant and a beloved wife and mother, Marta Dickenson doesn’t seem the type to be on anyone’s hit list. But when Eve and her partner, Peabody, find blood inside the building, the lieutenant knows Marta’s murder was the work of a killer who’s trained, but not professional or smart enough to remove all the evidence.

It was just another after-work happy-hour bar downtown, where business professionals unwound with a few drinks, complained about the boss, maybe hooked up with someone for the night. Until something went terribly wrong. At first it was just a friction in the air. The noise intensified. The crowd seemed oppressive. Some sharp words were exchanged, some pushing and shoving. Then the madness descended. And after 12 minutes of chaos and violence, 80 people lay dead.

The body was left in a dumpster like so much trash, the victim a woman of no fixed address, known for offering paper flowers in return for spare change - and for keeping the cops informed of any infractions she witnessed on the street. But the notebook where she scribbled her intel on litterers and other such offenders is nowhere to be found. Then Eve is summoned away to a nearby building site to view more remains - in this case decades old, adorned with gold jewelry and fine clothing - unearthed by recent construction work.

Publisher's Summary
Lieutenant Eve Dallas returns in the new novel by the #1 New York Times bestselling master of suspense, and takes on a case of death imitating art...
It was a stab in the dark.
On a chilly February night, during a screening of Psycho in midtown, someone sunk an ice pick into the back of Chanel Rylan's neck, then disappeared quietly into the crowds of drunks and tourists in Times Square. To Chanel's best friend, who had just slipped out of the theater for a moment to take a call, it felt as unreal as the ancient black-and-white movie up on the screen. But Chanel's blood ran red, and her death was anything but fictional.
Then, as Eve Dallas puzzles over a homicide that seems carefully planned and yet oddly personal, she receives a tip from an unexpected source: an author of police thrillers who recognizes the crime - from the pages of her own book. Dallas doesn't think it's coincidence, since a recent strangulation of a sex worker resembles a scene from her writing as well. Cops look for patterns of behavior: similar weapons, similar MOs. But this killer seems to find inspiration in someone else's imagination, and if the theory holds, this may be only the second of a long-running series.
The good news is that Eve and her billionaire husband Roarke have an excuse to curl up in front of the fireplace with their cat, Galahad, reading mystery stories for research. The bad news is that time is running out before the next victim plays an unwitting role in a murderer's deranged private drama - and only Eve can put a stop to a creative impulse gone horribly, destructively wrong.
From the author of Echoes in Death, this is the latest of the edgy, phenomenally popular police procedurals that Publishers Weekly calls "inventive, entertaining, and clever."

The story was entertaining and very typical of the Eve Dallas series. I've read the other books in the series and this is the first time I've listened to one in audio format. I did have a couple of issues with the performance. Dallas's sidekick is "Peabody" so I'm not sure why the narrator kept calling her "Peabuddy". Also, the voice she used for Peabody sounded like Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer when he had to wear that black thing on his nose. I don't know why she couldn't just talk normal. Some of the other voices were strange, too, but that one really bugged me.

disappointing...
As usual narrator was perfect........however, can find fault with almost every other aspect of this novel....have been a fan since NAKED IN DEATH but have noticed a decline in quality in the approximately last 3 books of the series......too much talking....too little gripping action.....too much Roarke/Eve sex (believe it or not!!)....too little dependence on fine cast of characters built up in other books of series .....Will return this one asap

I love Eve Dallas!
I don’t care what anyone says - J.D. Robb is a genius. Eve Dallas solves the cases with a methodical detailed look at all information and clues. Roark a billionaire loves helping his wife dropping his business and planet purchases to be an expert consultant with benefits. Their relationship has grown so much in the series and just gets better. Peabody, McNabb, Feeney and the murder team are still as personable as homicide can allow. I adore Bella and Mavis and see them being friends for the rest of their lives. More more more! Susan you are the freakin best.

Just a bit too BORING for me.
I’ve read every book in the In Death series, many numerous times and I enjoyed them all however, the last few books have been somewhat disappointing. I found this one to be just BORING and lacking the luster and punch of JD ‘s earlier books. If it wasn’t for the narration of Susan Ericksen who is absolutely brilliant in the Series, I would suggest not to waste your credit. However, I would pay to have Ms. Ericksen read recipes, I think she’s that good, and she definitely saves whatever semblance of a good story there is here. That being said I am still a huge fan and anxiously await the next In Death installment to be published and hope Eve Dallas has a little more challenging and exciting crimes and criminals to bring to justice. I’m hoping the rumors that JD Robb may have ghost writers is just that, rumors, but there has definitely been a change in storylines and writing technique. Let’s wait see what September brings.

Repeat, Repeat, Repeat
I was really hoping for a new twist, plot, change or some deviation in the series. I didn't get it. There are over 40 books in the series and I have listened to or read them all. Unless there is a dramatic change in the series I am not sure I will continue with it. I struggled through this book. I found myself day dreaming at times. The only part that I found myself laughing was at Bella's part. Eve doesn't seem to evolve at all. When will Peabody become a more independent detective able to solve her own cases? Will Baxter ever get promoted? At least we see a hint of Nadine finally becoming serious about a relationship and take on an intern with the possibility of adding some new interest. As far as the killer in this book...there have been better. I love Roark but there was nothing new there either. Overall, I was disappointed in this book. Writers shoyld evolve in their writing and I didn't feel that with this book.

Dark in death
As usual the book was well written but not as edgy as some of her earlier works. I found the story disappointing.
I think the author should postpone the next publication date and take the time off to research a story taken from the headlines of 2017 and adapt it for Lt
Dallas.
Miss Robb needs her groove back.

What's going on?!
This is a difficult review to write. I am a huge fan of this series....I always count down to the release dates every February and September....wish for novellas in between and, no matter what, any book in this series is an automatic pre-order. All of that said, this one was a bit of a let down IMHO. I've seen several reviewers say the same for the last 2-3 books and, sadly, this time I'm joining their ranks. Usually, I can't put these books down and will finish in one sitting; it took me 5 days to finish this one because it just wasn't up to the normal "In Death" standard. I started it the second I got the email
From audible that my pre-order was available....around 1am. I stopped several times and listened to and finished other books before coming back to this one. That's unheard of! This one just didn't have the usual action, drama, humor, character growth and chemistry between same that we, the fans, have come to love from this series. One thing that hasn't changed is the narration....FABULOUS! Susan Ericksen is the reason I became addicted to audible books! She is my original favorite narrator. If she narrates it, I'll listen to it!
Overall, outstanding narration and I enjoyed the book...it's just not the excellent, 5 star story that I'm used to from this author. I will still pre-order in September and hope this was just a fluke...fingers crossed!

Dark in Death
Did the author really write this book? It was so boringly predictable. The only parts I had a pleasant reaction involved interactions with Galahad and Bella. This was a disappointing experience. I hope the next installment is better.

Engrossing
This is book number 46 in the Death Series. It is amazing that Robb keeps coming up with fresh ideas. She has not repeated a story line as of yet. In this story Dallas is investigating murders which the killer is copying from a mystery novel.
The book is well written. The plot is interesting. I enjoy the various characters in the series. I never get bored as Robb uses different characters in each of her books. Robb is making Eve Dallas more complex with each volume. The pace is fast and the suspense builds throughout the story. While reading this story I had a feeling that Robb had fun with an author of police procedurals as the catalyst of the story. I found the discussion of how an author goes about choosing a nom de plume quite interesting. I enjoyed Galahad, the cat, as he played a bigger role in this story.
The book is thirteen and a half hours. Susan Ericksen does an excellent job narrating the series. Ericksen is an actress, author and Earphone winning audiobook narrator.

SO DISAPPOINTED.......IT WAS BORING:(
I'm still a fan of the series and Susan is excellent. The last two books were just cookie cutter and boring. Robb needs to do something to alter the formula. I won't pre-order the next one.

Dwindling in Death
This series has gone downhill so far that is breaks my heart. It is so surface level now- far from the rich characters and relationships we used to expect. The murder case was boring. It has turned into nothing but a formula. The criminal apprehension at the end was so far/fetched-a desperate attempt to add any level of interest to this super boring, go nowhere installment. I will be returning for my credit and waiting for a library copy in the future.

Okay
I love the in death series. I liked the book, because I love the series, I totally enjoyed the part where Galahad was upset with Eve because he smelled a dog on her. Of course you love the interaction between Roarke & Eve and the rest of the gang. There are some familiarities, like Sommerset is on winter vacation. The biggest thing that bothered me is the voices are off a bit. I had to go and look and make sure it was Susan Ericksen. At times the voices are off to me. She still did a good job, but it was off a bit. all in all, the book hit all the marks for me but it was not a 5 star in my opinion. Will I keep reading/listening, of Course. the book was still enjoyable, it's not one of her best. I can't wait for the next one in September.
