5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best "In death" - books so far - a must read, 8 Nov 2008

By	norarobertsismyqueen "S.M." (Germany) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Salvation in Death (In Death) (Paperback)

Warning - spoiler
"Salvation in Death" number 27 in the In Death - series is one of the best so far. There are two cases (one especially seizing), Eve and Roarke at their top and a lot of Peabody, McNabb and co. - so there's all a good "In Death"- book needs.
"Salvation in Death" starts with the murder (through poison) of a catholic priest during mass. The priest, a highly appraised member of the community, seems to have no enemies and besides the church no real family. He cared especially about the youths in his community and every member of the church looked up to him. But when the autopsy of his body brings some old scars and a covered tatoo to light, Eve starts to realize that the priest may have some dark secrets in his past. And when the tatoo points to a ruthless gang of youths that terrorized the people in the community years ago Eve is no longer convinced that the priest really was the one who he posed to be.
When another religious leader is killed in a similar way Eve and her team have to investigate if there is a serieal killer on the hunt or if this cases have nothing to do with each other.
Especially the first murder case is gripping and up until the end you don't really know the reasons for the murder. Case two is interesting as well and both show the reader that under the cover all can be different and that humans are experts in being pretenders. The combination of the church and Eve is really interesting and Eve is at her best although she is unsure about how to handle the catholic rituals and all that is going on in a church. But with her approach to respect people for what they do and not for what they are Eve handles the situation without too many complications.
In this In Death Eve really seems to get a better grip about how to handle her past and I felt really happy when reading this. Roarke and she are hot as always and Roarke has some funny moments for which I adore him even more. He is there for her when certain aspects of the case trouble her but she is also there for him when he has to fight with some bad memories of his past. They just are a perfect team and I can't wait to read more of them and how they try to handle themselves and the relationships with their friends (especially Louise's and Charle's upcoming wedding) .
All in all this is a "classic" In Death - book that enthrals the reader from the first moment right to the end.
So enjoy your copy of this fabulous book.
S.M.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!!!, 17 Nov 2008

By	Keeley Smith (West Yorkshire, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Salvation in Death (In Death) (Paperback)

The In Death series are fantastic books. I pray they never end. Each one takes you through the rollercoaster ride with Eve and Roarke. Salvation in Death is the 27th book in the series.The book starts with the death of a priest and Eve the brilliant homicide cop needs to find the killer. There are twists and turns like you wouldn't believe. For the ladies Roarke is the ultimate reason why you should read this book with his good looks and Irish charm you cant go wrong. It still had me guessing at the end! I could not put this book down and read it in a day. I am now excitedly waiting for the new book to come out.

For those of you who have not read any J.D Robb books yet you need to buy Naked in Death. This will hook you from the start.

5.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't read it fast enough !!!, 1 Dec 2008

By	C. smith (west vale,uk) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Salvation in Death (In Death) (Paperback)

Eve is back ! If a fan of the in death series there is a certain expectation of what's to come. This book does not disappoint, had to finish it in one sitting!! Just when you think it's all sorted; wham a cracking twist to the tale starts the pulses going again.There's religon,trust ,family, lust,love and obsession all mixed in to make this an absorbing read.
