5.0 out of 5 stars Eighth Book to an amazing series!, August 27, 2001

Conspiracy in Death. Another Winner! Eve Dallas has to solve a series of murders. The murders are perpetrated on the homeless and prostitutes. In each murder the bodies are found missing vital internal organs. Eve's career, and her entire self is placed in jeopardy. An irrational, bitter cop (Bowers) really hates Eve and messes up the case. This book goes further into Eve's past and you even see a soft side to her you hadn't seen before in the series. I really enjoy this series and it is truly amazing how J.D. Robb keeps these books getting better. Each one beats the last and they start out 'Naked in Death "with a winner!

5.0 out of 5 stars The series continues to get better and better!, March 23, 1999

This review is from: Conspiracy in Death (Mass Market Paperback)

In this latest installment of the saga of Lt. Eve Dallas, a homicide detective, is confronted by a series of baffling murders -- someone is killing the "dregs of society," the homeless, prostitutes: people who the killer or killers think won't be missed. In each case, the bodies are found missing vital internal organs. The case is further complicated by a cop named Bowers who has an intense and irrational hatred for her. This book continues to reveal pieces of Eve's past. I hope that in subsequent installments we'll find out about her family. One immensely satisfying part of the story is Eve's relationship with her husband, the gorgeous, enigmatic, and passionate billionaire she first suspected of murder. I love the role reversal in their marriage, and how their love not only smooths down her rougher edges, but transforms him. I'm was grateful to see the redesigned cover. It's less exploitive and more interesting. However, the author and her readers are not well-served by sloppy proofreading. This is an ongoing problem which I hope the publisher will take steps to correct. New readers: please read the books in order from beginning to the current ones. You will be DELIGHTED!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hard to Put Down, September 28, 1999

This review is from: Conspiracy in Death (Mass Market Paperback)

Just like the other seven, I hated to put the book down. J.D. Robb writes a story that grabs you at the beginning and you can't let go. I came across a review of Rapture in Death and Naked in Death on Amazon and decided to buy the whole series this summer. While reading one story, it was nice to know that I had more to read, but now I am at the end and I am going through withdrawal. Can't wait for my copy of Loyalty in Death to arrive. I love the characters of Eve Dallas and Rourke and the subcharacters (especially Peabody and Mavis). You get so involved with them - like you know them. Great work Ms. Robb (Roberts), I hope you have a lot more of these stories planned.
