A wife/mother has been reported missing on a New York ferry. There is quite the crime scene but no "body", and when the "missing mom" turns up uninjured with no memory of where she has been, could the NYPSD think of anyone better than Lt. Eve Dallas to solve the crime? And of course, with little or no leads, lack of food and sleep, she will do the job. Ironically, this case will touch her life in ways she never imagined. The victim and the suspect have ties to her painful past, and the secret organization (the HSO). Confronted with the truth, and knowing the motive, Eve must look deep within herself for a solution that she can live with. This short "In Death" story was great. There wasn't the usual amount of romance (although Roarke is still to die for), but there was everything that made a good tale....there were spies, secret weapons, assassins, murder, mayhem and a decent story to boot. I definitely recommend this story to people who love the series (they will know and appreciate the back stories), they won't regret it.

I love the "In Death" series. This was a short story from the book "The Lost" that had Eve Dallas once again showing the kind of heart that she has when solving a crime. The little flirtations with a certain someone involving Peabody were cute. I can't wait for the next book "Fantasy in Death" next year.

I love the Eve Dallas stories. This is just another story in the long line of stories that I can't wait to get and leave me wanting for more.

This one starts with lots of blood and no body. When the victim is identified, it begs the question of whether there was indeed a crime committed, or a service to humanity given.

Eve and her sidekick Peabody work their magic and bring the story to an end with a twist.

If you like J.D. Robb, and I do, you'll like Missing In Death.

Seems like Amazon is offering Eve Dallas's adventures on audio-only now. I am a huge fan of the In Death series but severely disappointed with this development.

read my lips: I DONT WANT AUDIO, I WANT A PRINTED BOOK!

I rave about all of the IN DEATH books, I just love to read them. I have great images in my head of what each character looks and sounds like!! J. D. Robb should take a bow and pat herself on the back for all of them. However, I went looking for a complete list of the series for my Kindle. I wanted to start the series over again and read them in order. When I found a list, I found I had missed many of the books when reading in paperback form. I have almost all of them now, in Kindle form. I went searching for the 4 above only to find out I can only purchase them in audio. THIS WILL RUIN THE SERIES FOR ME! I took a few minutes to listen to a sample of one of them. I not only could not get interested in the story, I spent way too much time adapting the the sound of the speakers voice. Even if they are shorter stories, they could be grouped into 1 or 2 books and sold to those of us who would like to READ them instead of listening to them. I hope to find them in Kindle format some day, I will wait to buy them then.

I love the series. I have every single book in the series and I wait, not so patiently, for the next paperback to come out. I started by reading Norah Roberts books which I loved but, when I learned about JD Robb and read the first two books I was hooked. Even better than Norah Roberts other books if you like detective novels, with romance of course. If you haven't read them yet be sure to start with the first two or three, and generally speaking best read in sequence. In that it's like a soap opera story, continuing.

I loved reading this book, as I loved all JD Robb's books. I really wish she would write more. LOL I read all Nora Robert's book because as we all know they are one and the same person.

I thought I was getting the book but received it in a CD. I loved it. I played while I was doing my Homework. Fasted I have ever "read" a book. I did think Peabody sounded funny at first. But I loved Dallas and her husband.

I have been reading Nora Roberts' books for years...and ALL the J. D. Robb books since she began writing them....LT. Eve Dallas, Rorke, and all the characters are just "Out of this World"!!! My only complaint is she doesn't write them fast enough!!! I can't wait for the next one!!!!

You can't go wrong buying a J.D. Robb suspense thriller. A great writer who serves up a great read.
