Publisher's summary

Opening night at New York's New Globe Theater turns from stage scene to crime scene when the leading man is stabbed to death center stage. Now Eve Dallas has a high profile, celebrity homicide on her hands. Not only is she lead detective, she's also a witness - and when the press discovers that her husband owns the theater, there's more media spotlight than either can handle. The only way out is to move fast. Question everyone and everything...and in the meantime, try to tell the difference between the truth - and really good acting.
Crack another case with Eve Dallas.

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

Witness in Death

I’ve read this series multiple time and am on my second listen of the series. Even knowing the series, these early books are still heartbreaking. Terrific job again by the narrator!

Great futuristic murder mystery

The Lt. Dallas murder mysteries are unique in that they are set in the future and it is fun to read about a world dominated by droids and technology and modern conveniences. But murder is murder and even with the new tools, detectives have to work hard and sometimes using tried and true methods to solve cases. I have enjoyed the first 10 in the "In Death" series but this one wasn't quite as good. There is a play within a play that ends in murder and it is interesting that Lt. Dallas witnesses the actual murder on stage but it is not cut and dried. I always enjoy the recurring police characters and the narration in the Audible version is very good at presenting the different voices. The reason I could not give this one 5 stars is that there are many characters/suspects in the theater company and staff and it gets a bit confusing. And delving into all the suspects backgrounds and motives drags a little. It is still worth reading and I cannot wait to start the next book in the series. Dalla's rich husband Roarke is to die for - he is such a supportive, creative man but edgy as well.

In Death!

Another great from J. D. Robb (Nora Roberts)! This continues the interpersonal relationships of the characters and gives you another fantastic murder mystery puzzle to unravel. #suspenseful #murder #mystery #torturedhero #femaleprotagonist #tagsgiving #sweepstakes
