Here it all begins. The year is 2058. The cop is Lieutenant Eve Dallas. The story is DEATH.
I first read a J.D.Robb book because I had read and thoroughly enjoyed reading Nora Roberts books. I didn't read the first few that mum got from the library because I didn't think they were for me.
So, what are they about?
A futuristic New York, a woman cop who looks at her wrist unit instead of her watch, talks on a link instead of a video mobile phone and punches the vertical button in her car when the traffic is bad. Nora said that she has enjoyed making the future as she would like it to be. Almost every disease has a cure in this world and with body maintenance that seems to be affordable to most the aging process is slowed right down. The downside of this future is that there isn't much in the way of fresh food unless you are very ...

~ About the book/Author ~
In 1995, an unknown writer called JD Robb appeared with 3 books, which became an instant success. What wasn't known by most was the writer was in fact the well known author, Nora Roberts and the 3 books were basically an experiment to see if they could be successful in their own right. Nora Roberts used the initials of her sons (J and D) and Robb was a shortening of her surname Roberts.
Eventually the publishers acknowledged the main writer was indeed Nora Roberts, but it wasn't done until the 12th book in the series and now this is shown by the titles, which recognise JD Robb as being Nora Roberts.

A phone call from up high interrupts Eve's plans to have a lazy day with her husband, Roarke: The teenage daughter of Captain Jonah McMasters, head of the NYPD drug squad, has been found raped and strangled in her bedroom. A terrifying video of Deena, bloody and beaten beyond recognition, hints at a link between her death and a criminal in McMaster's own past, someone determined to exact revenge in the cruellest way possible. Searching through McMasters' cases leads Eve nowhere - until another rape-murder, and another video, reveals the killer's deadly intent: to target every single person involved in his family's investigation and court case over a decade ago. With barely anything to go on except a tangle of dead ends, Eve and her team must work fast to identify the next victim of a killer who will stop at nothing ...
