Publisher's summary

“The devil killed my body. I cannot fight, I cannot find. I cannot free her. You must. You are the one. We speak to the dead.”

Immediately after hearing these words, uttered to her by an old Romanian woman bleeding to death in the street, detective Eve Dallas begins to notice that her latest case has come with a number of interesting side-effects: visions of the deceased, instant familiarity with rooms she’s never seen before, and fluency in Russian. Likewise, there appears to be a force inside of her, a spirit other than her own, that won’t let her rest until she’s found Beata, the old woman’s great-granddaughter, whose disappearance two months prior remains a mystery. Desperate to be free of her new “gifts”, Eve pursues the facts until she discovers a link between Beata’s disappearance and the disappearance of eight other young women, all of whom attended the same dance classes, none of whom were ever heard from again.

Book 31.5 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!

wonderful Ghost Story!

As always, JD Robb (Nora Roberts) delivers! Too short, wanted more! Loved the suspenseful ending!

has a supernatural leaning in this one

This book is a little different than most of the In Death series. This one has a supernatural leaning to it. It was awesome. We also get more information on the closing of the previous previous book Indulgence in Death, as well as the cookout. I like that we got that little bit of extra information.
This book was really interesting, even before Eve accidentally accepted a blood oath from a Romani.
Susan did a great job with narration.

LOVED !!!! well done Susan Ericksen

I love this series. I'm reading for the first time all the way from # 1. I really like the shorter stories. Susan Ericksen is amazing always but her accents in this book were incredible. She totally makes these books for me. Adding this one to my favorites.

Best of the shorts.

Not normally a fan of paranormal. This was so well written. The others we just okay. Well worth the time.

Captivated

Loved it. What an amazing story. Kept my attention all night. Narrator did an excellent job.

Ballet of Death

Would you listen to Possession in Death again? Why?

Maybe. It was suspenseful; different kind of story for this series.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Sometimes. It was a short story, not much time to build up much suspense.

Which scene was your favorite?

When Eve was in the morgue, talking to the young girl.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No extreme reaction.

Any additional comments?

No.

The dynamic duo!

It can’t be better than Roberts and Ericksen working together. Fast-paced intrigue with a touch of paranormal.

Definitely a New Favorite

This one will definitely be on repeat! Absolutely awesome with its superb supernatural storyline. Fabulous!

The devil didn't make Eve do it!

What could be better than Eve Dallas possessed by a 96-year-old Romanian woman--and Roarke making love to "both."
Eve not only speaks Russian--even insulting Somerset in that language, but suddenly knows at least three recipes, and sees and speaks to dead women. This is the best In Death novellas I've heard so far.
