Book Reviews of Promises in Death
Book Review: Promises in Death, Vengence in Death and Big Jack
Summary: 5 Stars
I have combined all three books for this review because they are all written by J.D. Robb (AKA Nora Roberts). The entire "In Death" series, of which Big Jack is a spin-off, has been a favorite of mine since their inception. I've bought about ten of the series, so far, because I enjoy them over and over. This writer has a very special ability to combine murder mysteries (a particular favorite venue) with "HOT" and steamy sexy encounters, mostly between Roarke and Eve. I never tire of their banter or their teamwork.
All the characters have literally become my secret friends. No, I don't think that means I need therapy. They have simply become very real people when you follow the series and that's a tribute to Nora Roberts.
P.S. Please don't ever stop using Susan Ericksen as your reader. Her voices have come to BE the characters I recognize each time I start a new audiobook. I don't think anyone else could capture them the same way.
Summary of Promises in Death
Amaryllis Coltraine may have recently transferred to the New York City police force from Atlanta, but she?s been a cop long enough to know how to defend herself against an assailant. When she?s taken down just steps away from her apartment, killed with her own weapon, for Eve the victim isn?t just ?one of us.?Dallas?s friend Chief Medical Examiner Morris had started a serious relationship with Coltraine, and from all accounts the two were headed for a happy future together. But someone has put an end to all that. After breaking the news to Morris, Eve starts questioning everyone, including Coltraine?s squad, informants, and neighbors, while Eve?s husband, Roarke, digs into computer data on the dead woman?s life back in Atlanta. To their shock, they discover a connection between this case and their own painful, shadowy pasts.
The truth will need to be uncovered one layer at a time, starting with the box that arrives at Cop Central addressed to Eve, containing Coltraine?s guns, badge, and a note from her killer: ?You can have them back. Maybe someday soon, I?ll be sending yours to somebody else.? But Eve Dallas doesn?t take too kindly to personal threats, and she is going to break this case, whatever it takes. And that?s a promise.
