5.0 out of 5 stars A fans review, 26 Aug 2003
By Janette (Dalkeith, Midlothian Scotland) - See all my reviews
I really enjoyed this instalment of the In Death series.
I was kept guessing right to the end about which suspect was the one imitating mass murderers from the past.
In this book we continue to see Eve's growing relationship with the other characters and also how she herself is developing through these contacts.
I especially liked the glimpse into how she sees Dr. Mira and how Dr. Mira thinks of Eve. We aslo see how this has impacted on Dr. Mira's daughter.
As usual the working relationship between Eve and Peabody injects humour into the story, as does her reaction to the relatiohship between Peabody and McNab.
I was shocked along with Peabody when, for a few miutes, we thought that she would no longer be working for Eve but we were both quickly reasured.
I did miss the interaction between Eve and Sommerset as he was still on holiday till nearly the end of the book but her joy at his being away and her reaction to his return did make me laugh.
I am looking forward to seeing how Eve compes with Mavis and the new baby when it arrives as her reactions so far always raise a chuckle.

5.0 out of 5 stars Intriguing reading!, 11 May 2004
By Frederick A. Babb "An Author," (http://www.frederickbabb.com) - See all my reviews
Eve Dallas, a police lieutenant, faces the most challenging case of her career, when she has to track down a serial killer that duplicates the brutal killing styles of notorious serial killers. A prostitute (LC is the term used in the book) is killed in the style of Jack the Ripper and the next victim meets their fate a la Boston Strangler style. With each murder, a personal note is left for Eve as the killer singles her out. Roarke, Eve's husband, is not the least bit amused with this last fact.

Robb, a.k.a. Nora Roberts, offers a splendid blend of mystery, thriller action, internal friction amongst the principle characters and poignant intimacy spiced with a dash of sex to make this a very interesting read. I recommend this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Imitation In Death - Imitation in Murder Scenarios, 30 Aug 2003
After 17 full length novels (and 2 short stories) about futuristic cop, Lt Eve Dallas of NYPSD, set in the middle of the 21st Century, only a couple of years have passed since the first book and New York seems to be rather a dangerous place to live - there seems to be a LOT of homicides. Book 18 follows a few weeks after Portrait In Death and yet another serial killer is on the loose - this time imitating the crimes of famous historical serial killers; Jack the Ripper, Ted Bundy to name a few... With a murderer changing his modus operandi each time he kills makes catching the killer more difficult, but this book is really all police procedure (with a splash of series subplots)and in the end, Eve gets her man, with the help from mega rich hubby (with security cracking skills and plenty of money and resources -what more can you have to solve a case?), her ever stalwart detective in training, Peabody and the rest of her team. This should be an enjoyable read for diehard fans (but its not one of the best novels in the series), but definitely not one for new readers.
