Lieutenant Eve Dallas must keep the predator from becoming the prey in Vendetta in Death, the newest thriller from the #1 New York Times bestselling author J.D. Robb. 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 … 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.
Now Eve Dallas and her husband, Roarke, are combing through the evidence of McEnroy’s secret life. His compulsive need to record his misdeeds provides them with a wide range of suspects, but the true identity of Lady Justice remains elusive. It’s a challenging case, made even more difficult by McEnroy’s widow, who reacts to the investigation with fury, denial, and threats. Meanwhile, Lady Justice’s criminal crusade is escalating rapidly, and if Eve can’t stop this vigilante, there’s no telling how much blood may be spilled…

Always a god read.
I loved it!! Eve shocked me when she bought up taking a few days and about going to a social event even if it was to catch a killer. Ha ha will she every catch the candy bar thief.
i love anything by j d robb even if you arnt a a nora roberts fan you may love this one
One of Robb’s best. Characters are believable, dynamic. Compassion for victims evident, not just a means to an end.
I love Dallas and Roarke! They are the ultimate power couple. The main characters that come back in each of JD Robb’s stories have become like family. I thoroughly enjoy these books.
Another entertaining edition in the lives of Eve and Roarke, I loved it.
You’ll almost be cheering for the crim in this one, her justice is deserved. The author wove the tale well and we knew who it was before the end but Eve had to prove it.
I never tire of this series, well done to the author…keep them coming.
Not as good as some of the earlier books in the series. Yes, I do want to see Eve working out her problems. There wasn’t much in the way of Peabody in this story.
I have read this series since book 1 and have liked them all. This is another great story. Not many Eve-isms in this one. The relationship between Eve and Roarke is as solid as ever and continues to evolve. These books can be read as a stan alone, but you’d be missing out on an excellent series.
I love Nora Roberts and especially her yearly stand alone books. The topic is timely and the pictures she paints are vivid. She blends humor and suspense along with danger and a love story.
I love the JD Robb series. There’s suspense mixed with dry wit as Eve and Peabody hunt down the villain(s) and provide justice for the victim.
I love this series. I can’t get enough. Every book builds on the amazing characters.
I read anything Nora Roberts writes as J D Robb. Love her world of NY 2059-60.
BEST SERIES I HAVE EVER READ…..GETS BETTER W/EACH BOOK ! ! ! BEEN READING THIS SERIES FOR 30 YEARS AND I STILL PRE-ORDER EVERY NEW BOOK ! ! !
Book 49 in the Death by series. The characters are the same set in each book with Eve (Dallas), and husband Roark being the main two. You get very invested with the reoccurring characters and they are old friends you get to greet in each new book. Of course Eve and crew have to solve the current murder…and this one was really well done.
Love reading this series
J D Robb always brings her characters to life. She knows how to bring the reader right into the action and the feel the emotions of her characters. I always recommend her .
Got predictable in the end No surprises
Love all the books in this series. Often read them in one sitting, even if that means staying up half the night.
