Eve and Roarke 3.5 starsThis one was going along well until the end. The end almost gave it 3 stars for me. It was so predictable. And I know Eve has trouble with kids, but good grief some of the scenes with her and Nixie were just too much. Even and idiot knows not to say some things to a nine ...

Just finished a re-read of all the In Deaths (to date), and this is my favorite. It's the hardest to read, I think, but that's because it's true and horrible and just raw. The scenes with Peabody & Eve, every move that Nixie makes, the sides of Summerset that you get to see: favorite.

Another great book in In Death series. Not the best one, I'm afraid. Nixie, the only survivor of a multiple homicide wasn't the character I was expecting. I didn't really create a bond with her.

This was a really sad one with Nixie being the sole survivor to her family's murder. This is an emotional one as Eve had to work through more of her past and we get to see a more human side of Somerset. I'm mixed on Somerset. I understand why he loves Roarke and why Roarke keeps him. I just don'...

Moved to 5 stars on reread. Hell, had a very hard time blinking back tears in the Starbucks drive-through line ... and other visceral responses. I guess it's a good thing that I just can't believe the motive...guess I'm sane. :-)
