Creation in Death

In Death, Book 25

De: J. D. Robb

Narrado por: Susan Ericksen

Eve has seen this crime scene before: the artfully arranged body of a young brunette, arms spread, palms up, body marked by the signs of prolonged and painful torture. Carved into her torso is the time it took her to die - in hours, minutes, and seconds. And on the third finger of her left hand has been placed a silver ring.

Eve is catapulted back to a case nine years earlier, when a man the media tagged "The Groom" put the city on edge with a killing spree that took the lives of four women in 15 days. Eve and her partner, Feeney, her friend and mentor, couldn't stop him before he disappeared, only to resurface in other parts of the world to kill and kill again. But now The Groom seems to have come back to where he started.

When it turns out that The Groom's most recent victim was employed by Eve's billionaire husband, Roarke, she brings him onto the case - a move that proves fitting when it becomes chillingly clear that the killer has made it personal. The corpse was washed in products from a store Roarke owns and laid out on a sheet his company manufactures.

With the Groom's monstrous return, Eve is determined to finish him once and for all. Familiar with his methods, she knows that he has already grabbed his next victim. But his sights are set on the biggest challenge of his illustrious career - an abduction that will test his skills and that promises to give him satisfaction as he's never known. Time is running out on another woman's life...and for Eve.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[O]ffers a satisfyingly novel mélange of suspense, sex, forensics and heroics." ( Publishers Weekly)
"This offering in Robb's series showcases Susan Ericksen's versatility and strong characterizations. Her delivery is well suited to the suspense and humor that are so much a part of this series." ( AudioFile)

jd robb delivers again but...

the real winner is Susan Erickson who is an amazing narrator. clap clap clap clap

very awesome read & performance

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

most of the stories in the "in death" series are so gripping and , well i just didn't want to stop the story, but continue until it was over. but this story, good, but not as gripping and just didn't capture me/my interest like th other books in the series.

Would you recommend Creation in Death to your friends? Why or why not?

i would recommend the series, but i would not suggest story 25. i think it is best to read it in order. maybe another person thinks story 25 is thes best one thus far.

What about Susan Ericksen’s performance did you like?

susan Erickson is one of the best narrator and could not imagine anyone else capturing the characters like Susan.

Any additional comments?

i just wished that Dallas would listen to others and perhaps stop acting like a baby

Just okay for me

I am listening to the In Death series in order and I have really enjoyed all of them so far except for 2 and this is one of them. I can't really say what it was about the story, but I found it did not keep my attention. It is definitely not the best book in the series.

I believe Dallas is human.

First of all, I love the series. I just wish the author would have made Dallas, not only a great cop, but. A little less authoritarian and a little more human.

One of my favorites thus far!!

This time Nora Roberts as her pseudonym J. B. Robb hit it out of the park!! This book had all the intrigue you could ask for in a mystery novel! I liked how she stuck to the story line without adding in all of the sexual play by play she is so well known for. I didn't have to fast forward through much of that in this book. Congratulations to her on an excellent crime novel!
