The Sunday Times bestselling series is
back. Eve Dallas is investigating the murder of a much-loved actor at a
glittering party. The spotlight has never been brighter. Or deadlier...
It
was a glittering event full of A-listers, hosted by Eliza Lane and
Brant Fitzhugh, the most glittering of all celebrity couples. Everyone
had expected the party to be in the newspapers the next day but not
because one of the hosts was murdered! As the crowd had gathered to
watch Eliza sing, Fitzhugh had raised a final toast to his glamorous
wife and fallen to the floor. Death by cyanide poisoning. It's time for
Lt. Eve Dallas to make her entrance.
From all accounts, Fitzhugh wasn't the kind of star who made enemies.
Eliza, on the other hand, had many rivals, and a few of them could
class as enemies. Since the champagne cocktail that killed Brant was
originally intended for Eliza, could it be that she was the real target?
With so many people at the party, Eve has her work cut out
determining who could commit murder in the middle of a crowd. As one
who's not fond of the spotlight, she dreads the media circus surrounding
a case like this. All she wants is to figure out who's truly innocent,
and who's only acting that way...
ARC received from Hachette Australia for an honest review
Who would have thought all those years ago that 56 books in, I would have been loving Dallas and Roarke as much today as I did then?
I will admit I would have bet against me still reading them.
But here we are, and JD Robb has done it again.
I don't want to give anything away, as I believe every In Death book is a story that you just need to immerse yourself in and enjoy.
i often have an inkling of whodunnit and just need to be there as the characters come to the same conclusion, there were a lot of red herrings and twists this time.
I know this is vague, but seriously dig in and enjoy it. It's mag.
