Encore in Death: An Eve Dallas thriller (In Death 56)

This book was just beautiful. Loved, absolutely loved, the classic detective work. No technology used to reach the murderer, Eve showed pure deduction work. Loved the writing.

Loved the way the plot went ..was not convinced about the who nd why..and roarke is just existing without any profound presence

It's a slightly different storyline... There's no violence, just a classic death by poison.No great murdering organizations or really evil killers out to get you...a highly unusual killer & motive.Still very entertaining!

Well written and formulaic, but the story fails to stand the test of logical reasoning in the central scene. This is the one where Eve intuits who she thinks the killer is. That chain of thinking is weak and hinges purely on "instinct".If investigators everywhere used their "instincts" like that, God help the innocents who get caught in the cross-fire.There's a deliberation about the writing in the first chapter leading upto the murder and Eve's introduction, it looks like it was "bolted on" with thinly buried clues, purely to substantiate the eventual killer.It seems like the author wrote herself into a dead-end, then used the investigators "instinct" to force fit another central character into the role of the killer and finally edited in a bunch of cues and clues in the first chapter to tie it together.Like a recipe with salt sprinkled on instead of cooked in.... its not bad, but its missing something in terms of smoothness and flow.This book is the straw that breaks my personal value for money equation - the reason I stop reading JD Robb, 20 years after I started, with "Seduction in death" in 2002.The quality of the writing is still great, still very visual; but the characters have stopped resonating... I suppose its fair to say that this series and this author isn't relatable anymore.I guess, I've finally outgrown her.Good bye. Thank you for 20 years of good books.It was nice while it lasted!

Love Eve and Roarke! Love the story lines of this series. A must read for anyone. Highly recommend. Get it now!

Gostei muito. Não teve tanta violência explícita, como alguns outros livros da série. Achei muito legal a maneira que o caso vai se desenrolando e como Eve chega no assassino.

In love with this series and this book is another winner. Loved the ending. Can't wait for the next one

Bei den inzwischen 56 Bänden der In Death Serie gibt es immer mal wieder Bücher, die besser sind, und andere gefallen mir nicht ganz so gut. Diesen Band fand ich wieder richtig interessant, vor allem, weil es ein paar unerwartete Wendungen gab.

first time ever I thought one JD ROBBS' book could be boring.
