Taken in Death

In Death, Book 37.5

De: J. D. Robb

Narrado por: Susan Ericksen

Two young children disappear from their East Side home in New York City, their nanny killed in cold blood. As Lieutenant Eve Dallas begins to unravel the crime scene and search for Henry and Gala MacDermit, she's drawn into the twisted mind of a kidnapper who will stop at nothing to take revenge. Horrific threats concerning the brother and sister hit far too close to home for Eve, drawing her back into memories of her own tortured childhood.

But Eve knows that there's no time to waste on the past, and with every passing hour her determination to bring the children safely home strengthens. Eve and her team find themselves following an electronic breadcrumb trail left by a boy desperate to escape the evil witch. Their investigation into the kidnapper's sordid past reveals violent coercion, ritualistic killings, and chilling bloodlust - making her terrifying plans for the children abundantly clear.

Great!!

This is probably her best short story. I'm not a fan of short stories- I think they leave readers unfulfilled. This one however, was pretty awesome. It was an interesting story and it was well told. Ericksen is brilliant- men, women, kids, accents- she can do them all.

loved it

I had read the story, and enjoyed it. The narrator brought it to life. Will look for more by her. I especially liked the accents.

This is one on the best JD Robb stories!

I’ve read most of the series and can say that this is one of the best stories. Sometimes, it’s not the length of a story that matters, but the quality.

short one with fairly tale twist

Susan Erickson is great. it's a short one. typical in death action with our favorite cast of characters

Best short

I haven't been a fan of the short In Death books. This one is great.

I would read more Robb books

This was the first J. D. Robb I have ever listened to or read and it would make me choose more by this author. The character of Dallas is well written and the story was good. Nothing amazing, but a good, solid thriller.

Always love returning to Eve and Roarke's world.

Always love returning to Eve and Rourke's world. I have been reading this series for decades and it never gets old or stale. Love the "In Death" series.

LOVE!!! the In Death Series!!

Where does Taken in Death rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Was a Great Short Story!!

What did you like best about this story?

When Eve and Nixie met again and when Eve Saved the Children of coarse. I cried in a couple parts of the story.

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

Susan is Eve Dallas, She brings Eve to Life....I would Much rather listen to Susan than read the book myself! if they were to change the reader in My Opinion it Would RUIN it!!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

YES!

Any additional comments?

I think the Story Ended in a strange way though.....I would have liked to have heard Eve interagate her and found out what she was Sentenced to Nut House or Prison?

excellent, a must read for all JD Robb fans

loved it, I would recommend it to anyone that is looking for something different to reD.

Book 37.5 of the Best Series Ever!

The 'In Death' series, written by J.D. Robb & narrated by Susan Ericksen, is a futuristic suspense series. The story is set in mid-21st-century New York City & it centers around Lieutenant Eve Dallas & her billionaire husband, Roarke.

My husband & I both love all of the J.D. Robb, 'In Death' series. We first began listening to them when they were on CDs. We've listened to the entire series, in order, three times so far! If we're driving somewhere, you can be sure Eve, Roarke, Peabody, McNab, Capt. Feeney, Mavis, Dr. Mira, Nadine, Summerset & the rest of the gang are in the truck with us. We love all of the major characters & look forward, with anticipation, to the new audiobooks that come out in February & September every year!

If you're looking for an awesome mystery series, a little romance with a bit of the futuristic thrown in, then you'll love this series! Believe me, you just can't go wrong, but be warned... once you get started, you'll be hooked!
