Time of Death by J.D. Robb is a novella collection featuring NYPSD Lieutenant Eve Dallas. Unlike the Three in Death collection that was primarily straight forward, the strange and flat-out weird plays a bigger role in this read.

It opens with Eternity in Death. In late April 2060m Tiara Dent bought into his myth of living forever. Now she won’t see 24 as the young beautiful woman is a very dead celebrity. The two puncture wounds on the left side of her throat give some indication to how it happened.

Eve Dallas hates stiletto heels. She hates the dressing up to mingle and socialize party nonsense. But, when you are married to Roarke, a very rich man, you do what you have to do. That means being very dressed up and in attendance at the gathering hosted by Maxia Caryle. It was supposed to be a fun evening. Certainly not a murder scene. But, it is, and now there is a victim, one very bloody suspect, and many other folks that also have to be ruled considered as killers or witnesses. Now the real party can get started.

It is early spring in 2060 and the traditional ferries still sail across the water to the Statue of Liberty. One on those ferries, the Hillary Rodham Clinton, has a very bloody bathroom. No doubt the person that was in that bathroom is dead. Nobody could have survived that massive amount of blood loss. Yet, there is no body. That person did not just get up and leave. It all means that Lieutenant Eve Dallas has a missing victim, a floating crime scene, and more than a few suspects in this one.

The three novellas in the Time of Death collection are all good ones. They push the boundaries of the strange a little bit, but all three end up being logically solved. As always, there are plenty of twists and turns as the reads move quickly to a resolution.

My reading copy came by way of the Libby/OverDrive App and the Dallas Public Library System.

Three different books that had to do with time. The premise of each was quite interesting:
Eternity in death which was about a guy who believed he was a vampire
Ritual in death which was about ?
Missing in death which was about an assassin who was killed by someone as payback. Missing because the body was not at the scene. ( )

(Eternity in Death)

The Sun's rim dips; the stars rush out,
At One stride comes the dark.

---Coleridge

Whence and what art thou execrable shape?

---John Milton

(Ritual in Death)

One owes respect to the living;

to the dead owes only the truth.

---Voltaire

The belief in a supernatural source of evil
is not necessary; men alone are quite capable
of every wickedness.
