Publisher's summary

It was just another after-work happy-hour bar downtown, where business professionals unwound with a few drinks, complained about the boss, maybe hooked up with someone for the night. Until something went terribly wrong. At first it was just a friction in the air. The noise intensified. The crowd seemed oppressive. Some sharp words were exchanged, some pushing and shoving.

Then the madness descended. And after 12 minutes of chaos and violence, 80 people lay dead.

Eve Dallas is trying to sort out the inexplicable events. Surviving witnesses talk about seeing things - monsters and swarms of bees. They describe sudden, overwhelming feelings of fear and rage and paranoia. When forensics makes its report, the mass delusions make more sense: it appears the bar patrons were exposed to a cocktail of chemicals and illegal drugs that could drive people into temporary insanity - if not kill them outright.

But that doesn’t explain who would unleash such horror - or why. Eve’s husband, Roarke, happens to own the bar, yet he’s convinced the attack wasn’t directed at him. It’s bigger than that. And if Eve can’t figure it out fast, it could happen again, anytime, anywhere. Because it’s airborne....

WONDERFUL AS ALWAYS

What can I say--WONDERFUL AS ALWAYS! With each book Eve grows bit more into who she is to become. Susan Ericksen is the best when it comes to narrating this series.

JD Robb consistently delivers

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

I recommend the whole In Death series if you're never read it. To really get the full flavor of the book you need to know the history behind it. That said, this is another gripping tail about catching creative killers. Keep in mind that it's set in a future world so if you have no tolerance for any inventiveness in scenery then you might avoid it. However, the world is a completely believable mix of current and 'new' technologies. The story itself is compelling and the main characters, as all are likeable and entertaining. A good read.

What did you like best about this story?

The creativity of the murder weapon. it's believable and down right scary to think about that happening in the real world.

What about Susan Ericksen’s performance did you like?

The narrator smoothly moves between characters and narration. you can hear the voices being spoken with her slight changes in tone.

I grew up on these books

If you could sum up Delusion In Death in three words, what would they be?

Good plot turn.

What other book might you compare Delusion In Death to and why?

Oh its an original.

What does Susan Ericksen bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Story telling is an art. She brings her art to life.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Think twice before you go into a bar owned by this Irishman. His establishments get targeted alot. Or maybe that's because as Eve might say he owns half the Universe. The odds are just there.

Any additional comments?

I hope to see many more books. I would love to see Eve and Roark start a family. That could take up maybe 3 books with murder and mayhem and cornering the market on diapers too. It boggles the imagination. :)

another best seller

The narrator is good at changing her voice for the different characters. She keeps you engaged the whole time. I never thought I could read/listen to a series this long without getting bored

Great story as usual!

Loved it! Love the whole series! Great cast of characters that always have me smiling. Susan Erickson brings every one of those characters into vivid life with her narration.

Overall a good story

I’m not a prude but I’d like the story better if there were less sexual details. I don’t think it adds anything to a crime mystery novel. If I wanted more sex, I’d read a romance novel.
