This set is the 1st three books in an Excellent Series. If you like books in a series that follows one character, this is a must have. These stories are actually two parallel stories. They will tug on your heartstrings with the lessons learned in love and friendship, as well as the struggle to to discover oneself and appeal to your sense of thrill seeking and the search for justice. Eve Dallas, a hard nose New York City Homicide Detective, breaks down the case, layer by layer as she stands for her victims. These books are set in the year 2058, a future that is so tangible you can see and feel the rightness of how it's portrayed. Beatifully written and in such depth that you watch Eve Develop into a better person as she solves each case and stands for the victims that no longer have any means of standing for themselves. Her sense of right and wrong is so true to real life, flaws and all. Her struggles to maintain the line without crossing over it, all the while fighting the memories of a past that has haunted her since she was found in an alley in Dallas, TX, a child, broken and suffering from amnesia.

Naked in Death is the start of your introduction to the Homicide detective that cares to much, works too hard, and searches for the Killer of a Senator's daughter. It's also her first introduction to Roarke, her main suspect. He is a dynamic billionaire that has always lived on the other side of the law, bent the rules when it suited him, and is unbelievablly sexy and elusive. As she investigates him for the case, her heart is pulled to him in a way that is inconceivable to her. Watch her struggle with the case, search for justice, and discover the possiblities of what could be.

Glory in Death. Eve is searching for a killer that is attacking high profile women in New York. As she sifts through the layers of evidence, She must find the killer and prove that her new lover Roarke isn't the killer though the evidence says he could be involved.

Immortal in Death: Eve must prove that her best friend isn't a killer though all the evidence says she's guilty. As her new love blossoms she struggles with having a personal life and protecting those she holds dear to heart.

After reading these books I was hooked and determined to read each and every book in the series. I anxiously await the release of the next in the series. I would recommend this series to anyone that loves romance novels and has a passion for the suspence of mysteries.

I thought I was ordering a CD audio set for Collection 1 of the In Death series by JD Robb. I guess I didn't read the fine print because I received CASSETTE tapes! With no cassette player available the set is unusable to me. I guess when a price sounds real good, I should reread the advertisement to make sure that what they are selling is what I want.

Anything written by J.D. Robb (who is really Nora Roberts)is outstanding!! The whole series "________ in Death" is about a NY City Cop named Leutenant Eve Dallas and her handsome multi-billionaire husband, Roark, and murder!! The characters are alive, the situations often gruesome, language and imagery is often graphic and earthy, and the whole mixture makes for a listening pleasure you never want to stop! I'm sure the books are the kind you can't put down! But as I have no time to "sit and read" I "sit and listen" when moving from one place to another - phenominal way to make a boring commute over in the blink of an eye! I hope she never stops writing these!

it is great to be able to listen to my favorite books and the product was in great shape

This is a wonderful series of books. PLEASE - start at the beginning and read them in order. Science fiction, police mystery, romance, and comedy! There is something for everyone. Not really into sci/fi? Don't worry - it is not overly done. A great cast of characters working together.
