Publisher's summary

In a New York City fifty years in the future, Detective Eve Dallas tracks down those who break the law - including the ones sworn to uphold it.

Eve Dallas and her partner, Peabody, are following up on a brutal, senseless crime - an elderly grocery owner killed by three stoned punks for nothing more than kicks and snacks. And for the first time, Peabody is primary detective on the case, which means she has to get used to a new level of authority and responsibility. Good thing she learned the ropes from a master like Eve.

But after rounding up the perps, Peabody stumbles upon a much trickier situation. Determined to start working out as hard as she grills suspects, she chooses to do it at the old, rarely-used gym at Central. After a grueling workout, she squeezes into one of the narrow shower stalls, happy to have the place to herself. Just after she shuts the water off, the gym door clatters open - and while she cringes inside the stall, trying not to make a sound, Peabody overhears two fellow officers, Garnet and Oberman, arguing. References are made to delivering product, and a house in the islands, and someone named Keener who’s supposed to look like an OD. It doesn’t take long for a naked and vulnerable Peabody to realize that both officers are crooked - guilty not just of corruption but of murder as well. Fortunately, the two clear out of the locker room without realizing there was a witness.

Eve Dallas may have trained Peabody well - but this is too dangerous for one person to take on alone. Now Peabody, Eve, and her husband, Roarke, must try to get the hard evidence they need to bring the dirty cops down - knowing all the while that the two have already killed to keep their secret, and are no doubt willing to do it again.

Brilliant

It's really impressive to "see" how all the main characters have grown in the last 31 books of the series.

Keep them coming J.D. Robb. Keep , narrating them Susan Ericksen as we will keep buying/listening .

Treachery In Death

I absolutely loved this book, definitely one of my favorites! Susan Erickson does such a fantastic job, with regular character voices and all new additional characters.

BRILLIANT! This is one of the best of the best!

Nothing gets me through the day like some time with NYPSD's famous Lieutenant Eve Dallas and her posse! This latest in the series is as good or better than any of the others - of which I have in my library the entire series. Kickin butt and takin names....Eve Dallas is my hero. Please don't make us wait too long for the next. Kuddos to author for your imagination in print, narrator (Susan Ericksen is phenomenal) and especially to the producers for making this available for download.

outstanding

I love her commitment and loyalty. I absolutely love Susan Erikson 's performance in all the in death books.

Love this series

I have listened to every book in this series. Susan Ericksen makes the characters real. I always look forward to the next one.

Great Book!

JD Robb never disappoints! I highly recommend this audio-book because of the fascinating story and an outstanding performance by the narrator, Susan Ericksen. In fact, I can't wait for the next installment of the Eve Dallas saga.

Good but Eve needs to grow up

This story was good not on par with others but good little spoiler please stop letting Eve be so childish when she came home and Roarke and Summerset was having dinner and she wouldn't even stay for dinner let her start acting like a wife and not a child that's what put me off this series last time be more loving to at least Roarke.

one of the best Dallas and Peabody books!

I love JD Robb's "In Death" novels with a passion. Some of that is because of Susan Ericksen who reads them flawlessly. she is the queen among narrators IMHO. Treachery in Death is intense and I love how everyone rallies around Peabody. A must read (listen)!

Great book and performance

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

If you love mystery and a bit of romance this is the series for you.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Loved the nuances and intricacies of the story - it kept me involved and wanting more.

Good addition to a dependable series.

It is fun to spend time with characters we have come to know and love. Eve Dallas is a strong woman who is an outstanding police officer. She is married to a fairy tale "prince", Rourke, who loves her devotedly. Rourke also happens to be one of the smartest, most powerful and wealthiest men in the world. Time spent with them is a pleasant escape.
