Nora Roberts published her first novel using the pseudonym J.D. Robb in 1995, introducing to readers the tough as nails but emotionally damaged homicide cop Eve Dallas and billionaire Irish rogue, Roarke. With the In Death series, Robb has become one of the biggest thriller writers on earth, with each new novel reaching number one on bestseller charts the world over.

NYPD Lt. Eve Dallas is haunted anew by echoes of her past when a family is murdered in their beds save for the 9-year-old daughter. Eve and Roarke shelter the girl in their home while working to track down the killers, who continue to murder in their quest to get to the girl. Robb's futuristic series (circa 2059) continues to feature interesting characters and crackling suspense. Susan Ericksen, who has narrated others in the series, displays her knack for creating voices that truly fit the characters' personalities. She portrays Eve with all of her determination and prickliness and is adept at the child's voice, a skill that is difficult for some narrators. Roarke's faint Irish brogue enhances his sexy persona, so well written by Robb. M.A.M. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
