Thankless in Death

In Death, Book 37

De: J. D. Robb

Narrado por: Susan Ericksen

In the latest suspense thriller in the number-one New York Times best-selling series, the year 2060 is drawing to a close in New York City and loved ones are coming together for Thanksgiving. But sometimes the deepest hatreds seethe within the closest relationships, and blood flows faster than water…

Lieutenant Eve Dallas has plenty to be grateful for this season. Hosting Roarke’s big Irish family for the holiday may be challenging, but it’s a joyful improvement on her own dark childhood.

Other couples aren’t as lucky as Eve and Roarke. The Reinholds, for example, are lying in their home stabbed and bludgeoned almost beyond recognition. Those who knew them are stunned - and heartbroken by the evidence that they were murdered by their own son. Twenty-six-year-old Jerry hadn’t made a great impression on the bosses who fired him or the girlfriend who dumped him - but they didn’t think he was capable of this.

Turns out Jerry is not only capable of brutality but taking a liking to it. With the money he’s stolen from his parents and a long list of grievances, he intends to finally make his mark on the world. Eve and her team already know the who, how, and why of this murder. What they need to pinpoint is where Jerry’s going to strike next.

Graphic description

The only reason for the four stars was, for me personally, the graphic details during the murders was too much for my listening. I've listen to/read many of the "in death" series and don't remember any with this level of detail. The narrator is excellent. Her voice/accent change makes the story. I still will read/listen to more of the "in death" series.

I love the evolution of the characters

The stories are predictable but it doesn’t matter . I love the characters, their evolution, the storylines, the way the author takes horrific traumatizing events and lets people get through them and grow .

Another Abridged Version? Bummed Again.

Again, I wish I had been able to purchase the unabridged version of this book.

Loved it!

The series as a whole is awesome but some are better than others. This one is in my top 3.

Story line

I love the narrator’s different voices. Excellent accent. I’ve been listening to this series for years. It’s fun to see how today’s technology is catching up to the series.
