Ancient church rituals meet cutting- edge crime solving in the latest novel in the #1 New York Times–bestselling series that’s “Law & Order: SVU—in the future” (Entertainment Weekly). In the year 2060, sophisticated investigative tools can help catch a killer. But there are some questions even the most advanced technologies cannot answer. Ridley Pearson has praised J. D. Robb’s suspense as “taut” and “nerve-jangling.” Her latest thriller sets a new standard for suspense, as the priest at a Catholic funeral mass brings the chalice to his lips—and falls over dead. When Detective Lieutenant Eve Dallas confirms that the consecrated wine contained potassium cyanide, she’s determined to solve the murder of Father Miguel Flores, despite her discomfort with her surroundings. It’s not the bodegas and pawnshops of East Harlem that bother her, though the neighborhood is a long way from the stone mansion she shares with her billionaire husband, Roarke. It’s all that holiness flying around at St. Christobal’s that makes her uneasy. A search of the victim’s sparsely furnished room reveals little— except for a carefully hidden religious medal with a mysterious inscription, and a couple of underlined Bible passages. The autopsy reveals more: faint scars of knife wounds, a removed tattoo—and evidence of plastic surgery, suggesting that “Father Flores” may not have been the man his parishioners had thought. Now, as Eve pieces together clues that hint at gang connections and a deeply personal act of revenge, she believes she’s making progress on the case. Until a second murder—in front of an even larger crowd of worshippers—knocks the whole investigation sideways. And Eve is left to figure out who committed these unholy acts—and why. |

 Written on November 20, 2008 Summary: This was Robb's best This was a smart and well thought out plot. I wasn't able to put the book down. The pages just flew right by.  Written on November 19, 2008 Summary: Worst in the series I've read every book in this series and enjoyed all of them except this one. When a friend told me not to waste my time reading it, I thought she must have been having a bad day. Unfortunately, I had to slog my way through it, hoping it would get better. I was very, very disappointed in the book. Written on November 17, 2008 Summary: A thrill a minute Eve Dallas mid 21st century NY cop and her multi-billionarie husband Roarke are on the case of a murdered Catholic Priest where they immediately have more questions than answers another murdered religious icon and thrills that don't stop until you read the last line. If you follow the series this is the 27th in the series where you'll get to catch up on all your favorite supporting characters and find out what they're up to now. If you prefer stand a-lones this one stands all by it's self.  Written on November 17, 2008 Summary: A weak entry in the "In Death" series Like other reviewers have stated, parts of this novel seemed phoned in. Where is our edgy Eve, our cagey Rourke, our sassy Peabody?? It felt like the characters were just going through the motions. I was wondering where Mavis was when she suddenly popped in! No repartee with Summerset? And Robb has annoying habit of popping in information that helps solve the case. I've noticed that in every one of her books, where suddenly, she'll make a lightening leap of logic that enables her to solve the case. A flaw? Only if overused. Three stars for this novel. Written on November 17, 2008 Summary: Salvation in Death Supurb! I think this is the best of the entire series (and I have every one). Just a great murder mystery. They always have me from the beginning but this one I really couldn't put down. I was beginning to wonder if this series hadn't just about run its course but if they continue like this one I'm in for the duration. The characters are all there and keeping with their assorted chacteristics, as a matter of a fact each book adds more. It makes for a better rounded Eve. My only dissappointment in the book is that the author seems to have forgotten about DNA. Keep them coming! Nora |
