Book Reviews of Born in Death (In Death, Bk 23)

It's always great to return to familiar characters. This book kept me turning the pages until the end. That Eve Dallas is quite a crime solver!

This is an excellent series! If you are not familiar with this series, it is Nora Roberts writing as JD Robb and is a combination of all the best - Sexy Romance, Science Fiction & Murder Mystery all combined in one. This is #25 is the series and if at all possible you should try to start reading from the first book!

As always, a great read in the series. Adds a fabulous smattering of baby humor as Dallas deals with the final stages of Mavis' pregnancy and childbirth.

A pretty good book with lots of twist and turns but you could put it down at night and pick it up the next day. Not all that thrilling. Or at least not to me. hehehe A light read.

"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 needs a favor. One of the moms-to-be in Mavis's birthing class has gone missing. Normally, such a case would be turned over to Missing Persons. But Mavis wants no one else on the job but Eve--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 husband, Roark'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-to-real danger in the world of flesh and blood."

Mavis and Leonardo's baby is born too!! I love this series of books!!

Always a good read

Another excellent JD ROBB story about Eve and Roarke. Although death is an ever present threat this has some really amusing lines and situations.

i love this series and this one is just as inventive and captivating as all the rest---sue

EXCELLENT! These books just get better and better.

I didn't like this one as much as others in the series. It just couldn't keep my attention.

The "...IN DEATH" series, without a doubt, is one of the best. The perfect mix of mystery, psychological thriller, and romance, each book in this series always offers up a reading delight.

Once again, Eve Dallas is faced with solving a horrific crime. This time, as often happens with Dallas, the death of a young account executive and her financial manager fiance brings her own strong emotions into the mix. Since she's already dealing with the imminent arrival of Mavis's baby, the fact that she and Roarke are to serve as birthing coaches, and not to mention the baby shower she must throw for her friend before that happens, Eve's nerves are already stretched thin.

When Mavis's pregnant friend, Tandy, goes missing, Dallas now finds herself working two cases simultaneously. The two start off on different paths, but by the end of the investigation she might find that they have a lot in common--including new life and new death.

When questions of ethics are thrown into the mix by Whitney and his superiors, the crap hits the fan, and Eve and Roarke must put aside pride and anger to deal with their relationship, while still working on justice for the murder victims.

BORN IN DEATH is another winner in this series. As always, I raced through the book in record time, and was sad to be finished with the story when it ended. I can't wait for the next release, and hope to be able to see Eve and Roarke finally get that vacation they both deserve. And, if I get to read about them running naked on the sand under a bright sun, I probably won't complain!

I really liked this book!
This whole series rocks!

this is one of the best series I have ever read

Love the "Born in" books! Eve and Roarke are always entertaining and the dynamic is great. All of them have been suspenseful and hard to put down.

Eve Dallas is the good friend we would all like to have and the fantastic dectective we would all like to know was on our local police team. Good read.
