Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful, exciting, fast paced and humorus!
Review: I have read all the books in this series and have enjoyed them all. I have shared them with others who are now hooked on them as well. I would love to see how Eve would handle pregnancy. I think that could be her toughest case of all.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Series
Review: Again, J. D. Robb gives us stories within stories. We have the murder investigation. But it is a play on the very play itself. We have the story of not only the growing relationship of Eve and Roarke, which we expect, but of McNabb and Peabody. Eve's growing family--now adding Truehart to that group. Like Agatha Christi, J. D. Robb is giving us stories with layers. That allow us looks at not just the surface of the character but glimpses of their depths.

Sometimes I go back and read the stories with the view of seeing how Even and Roarke's relationship has developed. Then other times I look at how Eve has expanded her friends from Feeney and Mavis to include other people. Eve's own growth of character from being isolated in her work to opening herself to a larger and fuller life has been like watching a friend grow and mature. Then there's the murder mystery. Have always loved a good mystery--from the days of Nick and Nora Charles to Diagnosis Murder. The twists and turns of the plots are great. I go back to see if I can follow the trail left by the killer.

I wish more writers would take a strong character that they create and continue to use that character in a story and allow them to grow.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Read them all
Review: After I bought this book, I went back and ordered all of the Eve Dallas novels and read them in order. Now that I am finished, I feel like I've lost a friend. The mystery is great...the romance and interpersonal relationships are exciting... and the sex is hot! (but not trashy) I can't wait for the next book. I've passed them on to several others who are reading them in order - we're all hooked.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: BEST SERIES EVER WRITTEN
Review: I think J D Robb writes a wonderfully imaginative series that has a perfect combination of futuristic sci fi and very realistic police detection. It covers so many genres including romance, sci fi, and mystery. It pleases all the readers! Hang in there J. D. (Nora)!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Did not like it
Review: I expected something different, I could not find the sense of true crime, action, suspense and deep mistery I was looking for, everything went too fast and simple. I did not crave the ending, so after the first 150 pages, I quit

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful
Review: I became a great fan of Nora Roberts when I read her "Born In" trilogy. When I found out that she also wrote under the alias of J.D. Robb, I just knew I had to read on of her "In Death" series of books. My first was Judgement in Death and I've been hooked every since. I had to get to my local library to start at the beginning. The character Eve Dallas is the most memorable character I have ever read about. Dallas' commitment to saving lives, protecting the innocent, and getting to the nitty-gritty of a murder case has made me her one of her biggest fans. Witness in Death is another wonderful book in the series of death, victims, the accused, the innocent and the murderer. Eve Dallas is once again on the case along with her aid Peabody, her most willing and handsome husband Roarke, along with other friends.

She is a true crime fighter, with enough guts to do battle until the very end and a heart of true gold. If you read this book, you'll understand what I mean, and you'll want to go out and start from the very beginning of the series. I suggest this book to anyone who loves mystery, suspense, romance and crime solving. J.D. Robb is the best. Thank you Mrs. Roberts for bringing such a wonderful character to my imagination and my heart.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I LOVE JD ROBB
Review: AT FIRST I PICKED UP THE "IN DEATH" SERIES FOR IT'S ROMANCE BUT BECAME HOOK ON THE PEOPLE AND THE PLOT THAT IS SET IN THE FUTURE. NOW I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT MY 'ROARKE AND EVE' FIX THEY SEEM SO REAL! THEY HAVE THEIR OWN FLAWS AND THEIR OWN DEAMONS INSIDE AND THEY CONTINUE TO GROW WITH EACH BOOK AND SO ARE ALL THE PLAYERS IN THE "IN DEATH" BOOKS IF YOU LOVE ROMANCE BUT ARE IN THE MOOD FOR GOOD PLOT TOO I HIGHLY RECOMEND THE "IN DEATH" BOOKS TO EVERYONE! A+ :)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Dallas Does it Again!
Review: After stumbling on this series by accident while picking out books for spring break, I have become hopelessly hooked! Dallas and Rourke are two of the smartest, sexiest protagonists available to mystery/romance/sci fi readers! The author has revealed Dallas's secrets, her desires, and her weaknesses carefully and slowly as the series has developed. Miss Roberts has also added new characters and developed them as carefully and as enticeingly as well. This book deals with a murder in plain sight...in Dallas's plain sight...onstage during the denouement of a play. The cast is the obvious suspect and each plays out his/her reasons, passions, and resolutions in the pages of the book. I don't want to give away the ending...but I do encourage you to read some or all of the prior books in this series. The character development is certainly worth it! You will love gritty, slow to love Dallas; handsome, richer than anyone Rourke; and all the rest of the characters that cross their paths and/or stay to become the "family" that Dallas never had. I loved it...and I have already preordered JUDGEMENT IN DEATH, the next in the series. I think you will, too! Happy reading!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Another A++ Book for Nora Roberts
Review: I have always been a big fan of Nora Roberts. The books she writes as JD Robb are great as well. This series is interesting in that everywhere Eve Dallas turns, her husband Roarke is involved somewhow. I thought that this book was a great addition to the series. I would recommend this one!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Still reading, but am VERY UPSET with one of the REVIEWS
Review: I am on page 135 and I think it is great so far. I decided to check on the reviews thus far. When I got to the 3rd review, the one from Phoenix, I really got angry. My question is what TYPE of person is she. She put the following into the review:

. There's nothing attractive about Eve Dallas and I can't imagine what her gorgeous, billionaire, great in bed husband sees in her

That is the most unkind statement anyone could ever make. If she ever makes that statement to a real (not in a novel) person, she would really hurt that person badly. To say that a woman is unattractive and she can't see what her husband sees in her is terribly unkind. Instead of reading romance/mystery novels, she should be reading self improvement books.
