Shadows in Death by J.D. RobbMy rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars
Shadows in Death is book 51 in the ‘In Death’ series by the fabulous J.D. Robb (AKA Nora Roberts). This time we follow Lieutenant Eve as she tries to catch a killer from her husband Roarke’s shady past. The story begins with a woman being murdered in a local park and although neither Eve or Roarke know the woman, Roarke sees someone from his past in the crowd and knows that they are the killer and are going to come for him and his family next.
As with previous books in this series, the story is fast paced and we see the usual characters turning up to help Eve and Roarke. Eve is her usual snarky self, but we do see moments of vulnerability from her, especially when it comes to Roarke and how he is dealing with this person from his past and what memories that brings up. I actually loved that we got to see a little bit more from Roarke, his family from Ireland and how he not only handled the killer but having his fingers in so many pies.
I love this series! They are great reads, with some action, fun and a little bit of drama. They are a must read for those that don’t really want to overanalyze everything that’s going on in a book and simply want to enjoy it!
