More About This Book

Overview

In Lieutenant Eve Dallas's latest case, two murder victims have one connection--Eve's lover, Roarke.

Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
In the third novel of her acclaimed "Death" series, Robb (the pseudonym for Nora Roberts) once again sets her 21st-century police detective heroine on the trail of a murderer. Set against the background of the youth-obsessed, drug-using fashion industry, this suspenseful tale sweeps from the glitzy to the seamy with all the flair and panache one has come to expect from Robb. Although the romance is not so prominent here, the sexual tension still simmers. The author of over 100 romances (primarily as Nora Roberts), Robb has written futuristic romantic suspense stories that include Naked in Death (Berkley, 1995). She lives in Keedysville, Maryland.

Meet the Author

Nora Roberts
Nora Roberts
One of the most prolific and popular writers in the world, Nora Roberts (who also writes as her edgier alter-ego J. D. Robb) publishes multiple books a year. Not that it’s enough for her fans, who tear through her unconventional romances. With her trademark mix of fantasy, mystery, and romance, Roberts has created her own genre -- and romance fans are grateful for it!

Biography

Not only has Nora Roberts written more bestsellers than anyone else in the world (according to Publishers Weekly), she’s also created a hybrid genre of her own: the futuristic detective romance. And that’s on top of mastering every subgenre in the romance pie: the family saga, the historical, the suspense novel. But this most prolific and versatile of authors might never have tapped into her native talent if it hadn't been for one fateful snowstorm.

As her fans well know, in 1979 a blizzard trapped Roberts at home for a week with two bored little kids and a dwindling supply of chocolate. To maintain her sanity, Roberts started scribbling a story -- a romance novel like the Harlequin paperbacks she'd recently begun reading. The resulting manuscript was rejected by Harlequin, but that didn't matter to Roberts. She was hooked on writing. Several rejected manuscripts later, her first book was accepted for publication by Silhouette.

For several years, Roberts wrote category romances for Silhouette -- short books written to the publisher's specifications for length, subject matter and style, and marketed as part of a series of similar books. Roberts has said she never found the form restrictive. "If you write in category, you write knowing there's a framework, there are reader expectations," she explained. "If this doesn't suit you, you shouldn't write it. I don't believe for one moment you can write well what you wouldn't read for pleasure."

Roberts never violated the reader's expectations, but she did show a gift for bringing something fresh to the romance formula. Her first book, Irish Thoroughbred (1981), had as its heroine a strong-willed horse groom, in contrast to the fluttering young nurses and secretaries who populated most romances at the time. But Roberts's books didn't make significant waves until 1985, when she published Playing the Odds, which introduced the MacGregor clan. It was the first bestseller of many.

Roberts soon made a name for herself as a writer of spellbinding multigenerational sagas, creating families like the Scottish MacGregors, the Irish Donovans and the Ukrainian Stanislaskis. She also began working on romantic suspense novels, in which the love story unfolds beneath a looming threat of violence or disaster. She grew so prolific that she outstripped her publishers' ability to print and market Nora Roberts books, so she created an alter ego, J.D. Robb. Under the pseudonym, she began writing romantic detective novels set in the future. By then, millions of readers had discovered what Publishers Weekly called her "immeasurable diversity and talent."

Although the style and substance of her books has grown, Roberts remains loyal to the genre that launched her career. As she says, "The romance novel at its core celebrates that rush of emotions you have when you are falling in love, and it's a lovely thing to relive those feelings through a book."

Good To Know

Roberts still lives in the same Maryland house she occupied when she first started writing -- though her carpenter husband has built on some additions. She and her husband also own Turn the Page Bookstore Café in Boonsboro, Maryland. When Roberts isn't busy writing, she likes to drop by the store, which specializes in Civil War titles as well as autographed copies of her own books.

Roberts sued fellow writer Janet Dailey in 1997, accusing her of plagiarizing numerous passages of her work over a period of years. Dailey paid a settlement and publicly apologized, blaming stress and a psychological disorder for her misconduct.

    Absolutely Wonderful

    What an adventure. The characters comes to life. I read the books years ago, so I wanted the audio for my long commutes. Susan Ericksen is the perfect reader for all of the in Death series. This is a quick read, your totally engrossed, a little romance and a lot of fast past action and thrills will keep you reading this story until its conclusion.

    Jennifer Wardrip - Personal Read

    The second book in J.D. Robb's "...IN DEATH" series, following NAKED IN DEATH, is another winner. The thing I love the most about this series, besides the awesome, fully-developed characters, is the fact that the mystery is ALWAYS thrilling and realistic.

    This time around, popular, well-known, outspoken women are being murdered - their throats viciously slashed. As Eve works to discover the true killer, she also finds family secrets, devious reporters, and new friends in strange places.

    GLORY IN DEATH features the first appearance of Peabody, a larger role for Nadine Furst, and the first glimpse into what Eve's childhood really entailed.

    I'm absolutely LOVING rediscovering my favorite romantic suspense series of all time!!

    I wish there were a higher rating to give ...

    This book delivers! Full stop. Like mystery? This is the real deal. Like suspense? Got it here ... How about all the excitement of a thriller ... ditto! And the romance? Well, it doesn't disappoint, and for my two cents, Roarke (he of the no last name) is the sexiest contemporary hero ever written. When I read earlier Nora Roberts books, I can discern how she crafted him, distilled him into the man he is in this very excellent series. And Eve is a tortured, conflicted, brilliant, utterly sympathetic heroine. Read it. Read them all. Just do it.

    best series of books ever

    I own all of the series, that's 33 books plus the in death novellas and I read and re-read them all the time. I will start at the beginning and go thru' them all in order. Sometimes I take out my favorite one or two and read those. I bought this one for my nook plus a couple of others of my favorites so that i will have an Eve/Roarke story with me, just in case i have a reading emergency, i.e. stuck waiting somewhere.
    My mom got me hooked, i resisted for a long time because i thought it was furturistic sci-fi stuff, but it isn't. it's a good story line that draws you in to lives of all of the characters and leaves you at the end of the book waiting for more. I highly recommend these books.
    Not for younger readers, they can be graphic with the murders and intimate moments of the books.

    Anxiously waiting for #34.

    Highly recommend - check it out!

    I like the idea that the main characters are the same in the series, but their relationship is growing, yet each book can stand alone.. Even better is you had not read any of the series, you would like the story and characters.

    Who is Eve Dallas?

    Eve Dallas searches in vain through most of the book for some hard evidence to reveal who is slashing the throats of high profile prominent women. It's wonderful to watch her live with Roarke and get used to the fact that he's there. She's comfortable with Mavis but seems to frequently wonder why. Feeny is always there and is one of the few constants in her life.

    I think the most revealing part of the book is when she asks herself. Who is Eve Dallas?
    She's really starting to remember what happened to her before she was found in the alley in Dallas and it truly frightens her as does her growing relationship with Dr. Mira, the Police psychologist.

    Don't miss out on this series

    Wonderful read...I'll continue on thru the rest of the series. Roake and Eve are so 'real to life' as to how things in personal lives happen to unfold when it comes to bedroom scenes and love.
