Futuristic...and steamy. -- Publishers Weekly --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.

Product Description
He is an expert with the latest technology . . . a madman with the mind of a genius and the heart of a killer. He quietly stalks his prey. Then he haunts the police with cryptic riddles about the crimes he is about to commit - always solved moments too late to save the victims' lives.

Police lieutenant Eve Dallas found the first victim butchered in his own home. The second lost his life in a vacant luxury apartment. The two men had little in common. Both suffered unspeakable torture before their deaths. And both had ties to an ugly secret of ten years past - a secret shared by none other than Eve's new husband, Roarke.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Yet!, July 9, 2001

By	"intentaccess" (Boca Raton, Florida USA) - See all my reviews

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

Vengeance in Death, there is a series of brutal murders involving torment and mutilation. Eve discovers that all the victims had assisted Roarke in his quest for vengeance for the murder of Somerset's daughter back in Ireland years ago.. Somerset, Roarke's butler has been jointly for many years coming to America together from Ireland. Roarke feels he partly responsible for the death of Somerset's daughter even though Somerset doesn't feel this way. The murderer sends Eve riddles before each murder. And she persecutes over each riddle believing that if she can solve the riddle in time she might prevent the murder from happening. Somerset's is really developed in this book as he is framed and made to look like the murderer. This was the best in this series yet. This series offers a perfect blend of suspense, romance. It is fast paced and full of action. I recommend this series to everybody. You won't be disappointed but start with the first book!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best by the best, August 19, 1997

By A Customer

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

Homicide detective Eve Dallas knew when she married her powerful billionaire husband Roarke, that there were events in his past she would rather not know about, especially his criminal activities. These acts conflict with Eve's code of ethics as an honest homicide detective. When a series of vicious murders involving torture and mutilation, occur, Eve realizes that all the victims assisted Roarke on his personal quest for vengeance. Eve faces the biggest crisis of her career and her marriage as she is confronted with choosing between love or honor.

VENGEANCE IN DEATH is the kind of novel that readers expect from the very talented J.D. Robb. The pace is fast, the action is explosive, and the relationship between the hero and heroine fresh, red hot, and poignant. This book is a keeper to treasure during times of stress.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best in the series! (so far), November 28, 1998

By A Customer

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

I have enjoyed every book in this series. Since I've been reading them in order, I have one left to go (Holiday in Death), but so far, this was the absolute best! I used to read Sci Fi, then I switched to Romance, then I found this: tight, action-filled, police investigation starring a tougher-than-nails heroine and a gorgeous, loving, rich hero. In a futuristic setting!! Could I ask for anything more? In each book, I look forward to the fabulous "gadgets" of the year 2058: the Autochef, the voice-controlled shower, etc. I adore Eve. I adore Roarke. I adore them together. But this book seemed to show them in even more depth. Without giving too much away, my favourite scenes were THE FIGHT, where (for once) Roarke stands up for himself and doesn't let (Darling) Eve bully him. The scene was heartwrenching, funny ("neurotic snits") and sexy. The explosion scene was gripping, the raspberries on the bed scene was howlingly funny and the car speed chase took my breath away. Read every book in the series! In order! Get to know Eve and Roarke slowly. You won't regret it. They never fail to satisfy. I'm on to the next one - Holiday in Death.(P.S. They are quite gory, so be prepared. Skip over the really yucky parts.)
