Quick Reading Check-In on In Death Series...
I’m between courses now and decided to spend the week
catching up on one of my top favorite fictional cops, Eve Dallas. Undressing this series requires no
undressing. I’ve been talking about this
series for years and, until book fifty-one, Shadows in Death, thought I was
about to take a break from reading the books. But why? Shadows came out back in September, and since then I’ve tried
four times to get through page number three in the book. Something seemed off to the point where I could never find
myself able. Very seldom does an In
Death book not hook from page one till the end. Weird stumble, indeed. I took it as a sign that I may just need to
take a break from the series.
Until I waltz into my library’s used bookstore and saw
a copy of Robb’s recently release, Faithless in Death, sitting on a
display for $5. There was absolutely no
way I was going to pass that up. It was
a clearer sign. And I took it and ran with it.
As I write this, I’m ninety pages away from the end of Faithless
in Death. I'm super happy I took on both books this past week. I’m still crazy about this series, after all. Yes, thirteen years
and over fifty books and short stories later.

Once I wrap Faithless in Death, I’m going to put
this bookshelf together to house all my In Death books (which, naturally, I own
them all). I’ve been moving books around
on my shelves as new books come in, and some of the real estate surrounding my In
Death books ate a chunk of that space.
So, some adjustments were necessary.
What can I say? I’m loyal to the series. The books need their own bookshelf. It's that many books. And it's that serious.

NEW RELEASE ~ J D Robb's Vendetta in Death ~ Eve Dallas Came to Town Again
"She calls herself Lady Justice. And once she has chosen a man as her target, she turns herself into a tall blonde or a curvaceous redhead, makes herself as alluring and seductive as possible to them. Once they are in her grasp, they are powerless.
The first victim is wealthy businessman Nigel McEnroy. His company’s human resources department has already paid out settlements to a couple of his young victims―but they don’t know that his crimes go far beyond workplace harassment. Lady Justice knows. And in one shocking night of brutality, she makes him pay a much steeper price.
Now Eve Dallas and her husband, Roarke, are combing through the evidence of McEnroy’s secret life. His compulsive need to record his misdeeds provides them with a wide range of suspects, but the true identity of Lady Justice remains elusive. It’s a challenging case, made even more difficult by McEnroy’s widow, who reacts to the investigation with fury, denial, and threats. Meanwhile, Lady Justice’s criminal crusade is escalating rapidly, and if Eve can’t stop this vigilante, there’s no telling how much blood may be spilled…"

"Ava Collette is punishing herself for an unspeakable tragedy. So she flees Boston and rents an old home named Brodie's Watch on a remote coastal peninsula of Maine, hoping to work on a cookbook inspired by New England cuisine that she's been trying to finish for months. She immediately feels at peace in the isolated house--until she starts to hear strange noises.
Rumor has it that a sea captain named Brodie has haunted the house for decades. Then, one night, Ava is awakened to find herself face to face with an apparition who looks--and feels--all too real. Meanwhile, there's been a series of accidental deaths nearby that don't add up. And as Ava starts to check into the previous renter's mysterious disappearance, she starts to realize that there's a disturbing secret some in town are desperate to keep hidden.
Soon all of Ava's waking hours are consumed by her investigation, and her nights are ignited by Captain Brodie's ghostly visits. But even as she questions her own sanity, she knows she must uncover the truth before a killer strikes again."
"China and Ruby Wilcox are presenting their annual ''Not Just Plain Vanilla Workshop,'' always a huge hit with customers at Thyme & Seasons Herb Shop. But someone involved with the workshop is driven by a deadly motive, and China soon finds herself teaming up with the very pregnant Pecan Springs police chief Sheila Dawson to solve a vanilla-flavored murder.
Sheila, happy to get out from behind the chief's desk, is investigating the death of a botany professor, a prominent researcher specializing in vanilla orchids. China is trying to help a longtime friend: the dead professor's ex-wife and a prime suspect in his murder.
However, there's no shortage of other suspects: a betrayed lover, a disgruntled graduate student, jealous colleagues, and a gang of orchid smugglers. But the lethal roots of this mystery reach back into the dark tropical jungles of Mexico, where the vanilla vine was first cultivated. At stake: a lucrative plant patent, an orchid that is extinct in the wild, and the life of an innocent little girl.
A Plain Vanilla Murder is a flavorful blend of mystery and herb lore, present sins and past secrets, and characters who are as real as your next-door neighbors—stirred together in an absorbing novel that only Susan Wittig Albert could create."

The Brotherhood of J. D. Robb
Like any J. D. Robb book, the premise is pretty simple. In Brotherhood’s case, Dennis and his cousin, Edward, were meeting a real estate agent. It's time to address and settle an agreement on their late grandfather’s West Village brownstone. Having grew up in the home, Dennis wants to keep it. Yet Edward is ready to sell–with his former position as a powerful senator apart of the negotiations. This leaves Dennis preparing a defense.

A Lovely–AND Early–Surprise
Should I feel guilty for buying a copy of J. D. Robb's latest In Death book, Brotherhood in Death, early? Hell, no. I doubt my early contribution will stop her from stomping the New York Times Bestseller list. So here I am, with Tuesday's (2/2/2016) release of Brotherhood in Death already in my hands. Thanks to which employee works at my local Kroger's. Cheers. And keep up the "good" and "persistent" work.
Sometimes brotherhood can be another word for conspiracy. . .
Dennis Mira just had two unpleasant surprises. First he learned that his cousin Edward was secretly meeting with a real estate agent about their late grandfather’s magnificent West Village brownstone, despite the promise they both made to keep it in the family. Then, when he went to the house to confront Edward about it, he got a blunt object to the back of the head.
Luckily Dennis is married to Charlotte Mira, the NYPSD’s top profiler and a good friend of Lieutenant Eve Dallas. When the two arrive on the scene, he explains that the last thing he saw was Edward in a chair, bruised and bloody. When he came to, his cousin was gone. With the mess cleaned up and the security disks removed, there’s nothing left behind but a few traces for forensics to analyze.
As a former lawyer, judge, and senator, Edward Mira mingled with the elite and crossed paths with criminals, making enemies on a regular basis. Like so many politicians, he also made some very close friends behind closed—and locked—doors. But a badge and a billionaire husband can get you into places others can’t go, and Eve intends to shine some light on the dirty deals and dark motives behind the disappearance of a powerful man, the family discord over a multimillion-dollar piece of real estate . . . and a new case that no one saw coming.A great treat to end January and START February...
