Encore in Death by J.D. Robb
Hello, dear readers! I’m so excited to share with you my review of the latest book in the Eve Dallas series by J.D. Robb: Encore in Death. This is the 56th book in the series, and it’s a thrilling ride from start to finish. If you’re a fan of Eve, Roarke, Peabody, and the rest of the gang, you won’t want to miss this one!
Encore in Death starts with a shocking murder. Celebrity couple Eliza Lane and Brant Fitzhugh throw a party on the night before Brant is scheduled to leave for New Zealand. He is producing and starring in a movie being filmed there while Eliza is set for the role of a lifetime on Broadway. Eve Dallas arrives after Brant toasted Eliza, fell to the floor, and died. The drink that killed him was originally intended for Eliza. Which of them was the target? With over 200 guests, staff, and servers, it’s not going to be easy to identify the killer.
As Eve and her team investigate, they uncover a twisted web of betrayal and revenge that spans decades and continents. They are facing a ruthless killer who seems bent on removing everyone who is associated with the death of Brant. But is that really the killer’s true motivation? Eve has to use all her skills and instincts to catch the killer because something isn’t tracking. This case makes Eve look closer at her own marriage.
Reflection
Encore in Death is a fast-paced, suspenseful, and emotional story that will keep you hooked until the end. J.D. Robb delivers another masterpiece of crime fiction with complex characters, witty dialogue, and a gripping plot. She also explores some themes that are relevant to our times, such as fame, power, corruption, and justice. I have read all of the books in this series up to number 56. I have enjoyed them and found them hard to put down. If you like a good murder mystery with a side of romance, this is an excellent choice.
