This is #58 in J.D. Robb’s (Nora Roberts) “In Death” series. I pre-ordered the paperback in January and received it Tuesday. I dived into it as soon as I finished the book I was reading.
I was a bit disappointed this time, even though this is my favorite long term series and author, and I’ll continue to pre-order the paperback versions of each new book as I have the chance.
Usually there is some new ‘revelation’ that allows you to understand a character better, feel closer to them, or there is an event that brings tears to my eyes because someone is honored, someone is hurt and recovers, people find love, a situation or emotion with which you can identify, etc., making you feel even more tied to the series that you were before, if that were possible. :0)
This book had an interesting series of crimes and perpetrator Eve and company were trying to stop. The book, as always, held my interest. I started it the middle of the afternoon Tuesday and finished it Wednesday. It was good to be with the characters again, sharing their future world for a time. No special features this time, though. I fear that Nora may be tiring of the series – as I would imagine anyone might be after writing 58 books about the same group of people – but I hope I’m wrong.
The next book in the series # 59 –“Passions in Death” comes out in hardback in September of this year. “Bonded in Death” #60 comes out in hardback in February of 2025. I’m hoping I can pre-order “Passions” in paperback when it is announced for sale in September.
I will always be a huge fan of J.D. Robb (Nora Roberts) the author, and the incredible world and characters she has created in this “In Death” series.
