Description

When the newly promoted captain of the NYPSD and his wife return a day early from their vacation, they were looking forward to spending time with their bright and vivacious sixteen-year-old daughter who had stayed behind. Not even their worst nightmares could have prepared them for the crime scene that awaited them instead. Brutally murdered in her bedroom, Deena?s body showed signs of trauma that horrified even the toughest of cops; including our own Lieutenant Eve Dallas, who was specifically requested by the captain to investigate. When the evidence starts to pile up, Dallas and her team think they are about to arrest their perpetrator; little do they know yet that someone has gone to great lengths to tease and taunt them by using a variety of identities. Overconfidence can lead to careless mistakes. But for Dallas, one mistake might be all she needs to bring justice.

Suzanne Brockmann's military romances make a good suggestion for fans of J. D. Robb, who will appreciate Brockmann's bad boy heroes, insider military details, richly developed romance, and fast-paced action-filled stories driven by events other than falling in love. -- Katherine Johnson
J.D. Robb and Julie Garwood share the ability to write well-plotted stories with lots of witty dialogue and deeply felt romantic attachments. Each author also crafts strong secondary and repeating characters that readers love to follow. -- Krista Biggs
Linda Howard might appeal to J. D. Robb readers for her solid mystery and gritty settings along with their spicy romance. Relationships (romantic, business, and family) among a group of people are meaningful, along with the essential element of suspense and the military or police-centered cast of characters. -- Katherine Johnson
Lisa Gardner and J. D. Robb write romantic suspense featuring fast-paced investigations that pit investigators against a range of deadly criminals. Both offer the satisfaction of ongoing series characters, detailed settings, fascinating investigations, and romantic interests. -- Krista Biggs
Particularly in Laurell K. Hamilton's Vampire Hunter stories and J. D. Robb's Eve Dallas series, readers will enjoy Anita's (Vampire) and Eve's (Dallas) tough, resourceful, and strong personalities paired with their tortured and vulnerable states. While Hamilton writes more in urban fantasy, Robb features a futuristic element in Eve's detective narratives. -- Krista Biggs

Booklist Review

For NYPSD Lieutenant Eve Dallas, there is no such thing as a holiday from work. Eve had just settled into a quiet Peace Day at home with her husband, sexy Irish billionaire Roarke, when the call comes in. When NYSPD Captain MacMasters and his wife arrive home early from a vacation and find their daughter viciously murdered, the first thing MacMasters does is request that Eve head up the investigation. Eve and her team are determined to quickly and successfully close the case, but despite a number of potential leads, the murderer always seems to be one step ahead. All it takes, though, is one misstep for Eve to put an end to the killer's criminal career forever. With its ingenious, adrenaline-rich plot and addictive combination of edgy suspense and sexy romance, Kindred in Death proves that even after orchestrating more than two dozen cases for Eve, Robb can still surprise readers and jangle their nerves.--Charles, John Copyright 2009 Booklist

Publisher's Weekly Review

New York City law officers have more technological weapons at their disposal in bestseller Robb's snappy near-future series, but so do criminals, including the sadistic rapist killer who strikes down Deena MacMasters, the 16-year-old daughter of police captain Jonah MacMasters, in the 30th full-length novel to feature homicide detective Lt. Eve Dallas (after Promises in Death). MacMasters specifically asks that Dallas, who has a knack for clever insights and deductions, lead the investigation into his daughter's murder. An impressive team of professionals-augmented by Dallas's husband, Roarke, and his young protege, Jaime Lingstrom-begins the arduous task of collecting and analyzing data. Clues suggest Deena may not be the only victim targeted by her killer and increase the pressure on Dallas and her cohorts. Robb (aka Nora Roberts) combines sex, horrific crime, forensics and technological wizardry for another winner sure to please her many fans. (Nov.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved
