Mystery
  BooksInMirror | Feb 19, 2024 |
Mavis is getting ready to have her baby which involves Eve and Roarke in childbirth classes because she's asked them to be her coaches. Both would much rather face down a crazed, armed killer than be there when Mavis gives birth.

Eve's new cases concern a woman and man who were tortured and murdered in their homes. Since both worked for an accounting firm, she's like Roarke's financial expertise but optics are bad because he could potentially use what he learns to enhance his own business. There is some conflict there between Roarke and the NYPSD.

Then a pregnant friend of Mavis's goes missing and Mavis begs Eve to find her. Soon the two cases are found to be parts of a whole big conspiracy and Eve has a deadline to find the friend before it is too late to save her and her baby.

And she and Roarke don't escape being there when both the friend and Mavis go into labor and deliver their babies. ( )

Born in Death
4 Stars

Whether one loves or hates her writing style, Nora Roberts, aka J. D. Robb, has hit on a winning formula with her In Death books and this installment is no exception.

While the murder mystery and abduction storylines are rather predictable (it is easy to guess both the culprits and the motives relatively early), they, nevertheless, make for gripping reading and the resolution is exciting and satisfying.

The interactions between the characters are fantastic as always, especially the snarky banter between Eve and Summerset. That said, this book demonstrates once again why Mavis is not a favorite of mine as her over the top drama continues to grate on the nerves. Oh well, its impossible to like all the characters all the time ...

All in all, I'm now at the halfway mark through the series and still going strong. I actually can't believe I've made it this far :) ( )
