Publisher's summary

The year 2060 is drawing to a close, and Thanksgiving is just around the corner. It's a time for loved ones to come together. But sometimes the deepest hatreds seethe within the closest relationships, and blood flows faster than water....

For Lieutenant Eve Dallas of the NYPSD, the job is a useful reminder of what she has to be grateful for this season. Hosting Roarke's big Irish family for the holiday may be challenging, but it's a joyful improvement on her own dark childhood.

Other couples aren't as lucky as Eve and Roarke. The Reinholds, for example, are lying on the floor of their Downing Street apartment, stabbed and bludgeoned almost beyond recognition. Those who knew them are stunned - and even more heartbroken by the overwhelming evidence that they were murdered by their own son. Twenty-six-year-old Jerry hadn't exactly made a good impression on all the bosses who fired him or the girlfriend who dumped him - but they didn't think he was capable of this.

Turns out Jerry is not only capable of brutality but taking a liking to it. With the money he's stolen from his parents, and a long list of grievances, he intends to finally make his mark on the world. Eve and her team already know the who, how, and why of this murder. What they need to pinpoint is where Jerry's going to strike next.

Good book

The story was good but it really dragged, it was a struggle to get to at times, but the ending was awesome I loved how they got surprised at the ceremony and of course cried with little nicksie.

one of the best

has me crying every time I hear it. one of my favorites loved it

Great

Love her books! Great charters, good mystery, love the steps she takes. Hope she keeps writing

Thankless in Death

I loved this storyline, from beginning to end. Wow the killer thought he'd actually be safe hidding right under Eve's nose, that was funny. I love the humour in the In Death books. i highly recommend this book. Fantastic narration.

Absolutely a very good book

This is one of my favorite book. I love the way she combined love, hate and kindness in this book

Always great

If something ever happens where they have to change the narrator They should just stop the books She is mega fab

Great ending but I struggled with the violence

First off...Susan Ericksen is AMAZING !!! I've been working my way thru this series back to back and Ms Ericksen blows me away with the voices and accents she does.
This story has a good ending but I had to fast forward thru the torture scenes. I just couldn't listen to them.
I HATED the bad guy in this book, actually felt myself wanting to leap into the book and tell him what a pathetic $!$@ he was.
This series has had some awful bad guys (and girls) but this worthless character got to me.
Oh the emotions I felt listening to this book !!
It was nice to hear the bad guy get his at the end and agreed with every name Eve called him.
The awards and the family part at the end was heart warming (wiped a few tears on that).
On to the next one - hopefully keeping the torture scenes to a minimum

LOVE IT

Love seeing Eve get in touch with her emotions!! And seeing her with a family!

Definitely one of my faves

The story is very gripping and funny at several points. Although Dallas sort of acts like a brat -bratty brat, about sleep, eats, letting it go for just a bit, she is pretty amazing. I like to escape in stories from my reality and step into her boots. You’ll love this one as well

Thankfull for some answers

Would you listen to Thankless in Death again? Why?

I already have. I have listened to the whole series at least 3 times and have some favorites I return to over and over. This is one of the best. Each book you get the chance to watch the characters grow.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Thankless in Death?

There are two in this book, the medals ceremony and the surprise, both brought tears to my eyes and joy in the deep

Have you listened to any of Susan Ericksen’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Susan is In Death, she makes these books come alive. She brings life and personality to every character I can't hear in my head anyone else reading these books.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

All of the In Death books make me laugh,cry, think and even feel anger. Most of them I want to listen to over and over

Any additional comments?

I look forward to the next one that is out in a few days and hate waiting for more.
