Obsession in Death: by J. D. Robb | Summary & Analysis

This is a Summary & Analysis of Obsession in Death. Bestselling author J.D. Robb continues the sprawling In Death series in its fortieth volume, Obsession in Death. Offering a fast-paced, tense, near-future thriller, the novel is sure to please long-time readers, and it is accessible to those new to the series, referring to past events but not building on them in such ways that the novel cannot be enjoyed without reading its antecedents.

J.D. Robb’s latest installment of the In Death series, depicts the investigation by Lieutenant Eve Dallas of murders committed ostensibly in her name. Her pursuit of the killer—one who slays and attempts to slay those who have somehow disrespected or insulted Dallas—leads her back and forth across Manhattan through a number of false leads to a perpetrator uncomfortably close to home—and indeed to her own professional home. Culminating in a tense standoff in her Dallas’s own divisional headquarters, the novel moves rapidly through a few days of action, carrying readers along through another installment in an expansive series and, if not providing direct ties for further novels in that series, doing nothing to foreclose them.
