Lieutenant Eve Dallas struggles with the end—and the beginning—of life in this thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling In Death series.Just as Eve Dallas begins to investigate the grisly double homicide of two young lovers—both employees of the same prestigious accounting firm—her friend Mavis need a favor. One of the moms-to-be in Mavis’s birthing class has gone missing. Normally, such a … missing. Normally, such a case would be turned over to Missing Persons. But Mavis wants no one else on the job—and Eve can’t say no.
Now Eve’s trying to track down the missing woman, while simultaneously unearthing the deals and double-crosses hidden in the files of some of the city’s richest and most secretive citizens, in a race against this particularly vicious killer. Luckily, her multimillionaire husband Roarke’s expertise comes in handy with the number crunching. But as he mines the crucial data that will break the case wide open, Eve faces an all too real danger in the world of flesh and blood.

I have read the whole In Death series and am impatiently waiting for the next one. This series is so different from anything I have ever read but it is exceptional. I highly recommend it!
I love all the JD Robb Death Series books. She never fails to keep me reading
until the end.
Part of a series of books. If you enjoy other books in this series you will enjoy this. Murder mystery.
she develops the characters and they appear as real and with their own issues and how they handle them and grow.
As always, Nora Roberts is a wonderful read. I love the way the Eve Dallas character has evolved over the years.
Hard to go wrong with one of Nora Roberts’s J.D. Robb “In Death” books – in this case, Eve’s solving a double murder of engaged accountants’ couple, dealing with a possible abduction of a heavily pregnant woman…AND having to be her best friend’s Birthing Coach! Suspenseful, tragic and humorous by turns, it’s one of the better Lt. Eve Dallas of the mid-21st Century NYPSD’s mystery/romance/SF stories.
Favorite book. Love the In Death Series!
All of the books I’ve read by J.D. Robb (In Death series) are top notch and I’ve read a slew of them. I can’t think of any negatives. All the characters are well developed and believable. Suspense, romance, humor, mystery, it’s all in her books. Read them all and enjoy.
I’ve read everyone of this series and hate that I have to wait so long for the next one. If you haven’t read this series, be sure to start with the first one. Bet you’ll get hooked!
I love this whole series. Great characters and stories
I expected a bit more from Robb…It is a professionally produced piece of mystery fiction, but not as satisfying as I hoped.
I am never disappointed with JD Robb and these characters.
Set about 40 years in the future makes this interesting. The overuse of acronyms drove me crazy!
Love J.D. Robb books. Always a good mystery with great, likeable characters.
Even after all these years I can’t wait until another J.D. Robb book comes out. Even though a few in the series seemed to be a bit cookie cutter – as if I had already read the book even when it was just published – I can’t wait to read how Eve & Roake’s lives get disturbed again. I know it’s got be a challenge to come up with something new each time – but Ms. Robb is a master at it.
