Publisher's summary

Bart Minnock, founder of the computer gaming giant U-Play, enters his private playroom, and eagerly can’t wait to lose himself in an imaginary world, to play the role of a sword-wielding warrior king, in his company’s latest top-secret project, Fantastical.

The next morning, he is found in the same locked room, in a pool of blood, his head separated from his body. It is the most puzzling case Eve Dallas has ever faced, and it is not a game.

Lt. Eve Dallas is having as much trouble figuring out how Bart Minnock was murdered as who did the murdering. The victim’s girlfriend seems sincerely grief-stricken, and his quirky-but-brilliant partners at U-Play appear shocked as well. No one seemed to have a problem with the enthusiastic, high-spirited millionaire of course, success can attract jealousy, and gaming, like any business, has its fierce rivalries and dirty tricks—as Eve’s husband, Roarke, one of U-Play’s competitors, knows well. But Minnock was not naïve, and he knew how to fight back in the real world as well as the virtual one.

Eve and her team are about to enter the next level of police work, in a world where fantasy is the ultimate seduction—and the price of defeat is death.

Crack another case with Eve Dallas.

This techie loves this one

Eve likes to roll over everyone’s feelings but she gets all whiny when hers gets hurt. One day I’d love to play in a hallow room.

Can't wait for the next one!!

I love J.D. Robb's In Death series!! Eve Dallas kicks butt and Roarke is the ultimate fantasy man. Mostly I love how the characters have evolved through the series. I think Susan Erickson is a great narrator, she makes the characters real. I can see Eve, Roarke, Peabody, McNabb,Dr. Mera and Mavis in my mind. Keep up the good work!! Can't wait for the next one!

Great Narrator!

These books are absolutely fantastic. Regardless of how good the writing is, the story would be much less without THIS narrator. Susan Ericksen is without any doubt THE best narrator ever. I don't think I could endure a book in this series not narrated by Ms. Ericksen. I can recognize each and every character by her character's voice alone. I just love listening to her narrate the Dallas series.

Great story

This was such a great story. A great parallel between reality and fantasy. As always I’m always amazed how well Roarke and Eve work together, even if they’re at odds. Detective Peabody was amazing in interview. It’s great to hear how she’s grown. Not just as a person, but a detective!

Must Follow Books !!!

we need MORE, MORE, MORE, I've been listening in order and don't ever want to run dry of the series "In Death "
