Summary: I loved It!
Review: J.D. Robb has written another excellent book. The crucial plot twists keep you hanging on every word. The fact that still she doesn't realize the advantage of being Roarke's wife, is humoreous. As with all the books, Holiday in Death makes you feel like you can't wait till the next book.I am looking forward to reading Conspiracy in Death.

Summary: Futuristic Homicide
Review: JD Robb is the pseudonym of Nora Roberts. In this novel, set one hundred years in the future, Lieutenant Eve Dallas and Officer Peabody investigate a serial killer who uses a dating service to choose his victims. Not all the victims are female either. With the help of her millionaire husband and an extra vexatious (well,to Peabody) officer, the hunt is on for a holiday killer who seems to use the song "The Twelve Days Of Christmas" as the symbol of his murders. Eve has not fully recovered, physically or mentally, from her last investigation. Much to Eve's frustration, and the reader's delight, her husband seems well able to take care of her though...whether she likes it or not. A futuristic police story which is full of steamy romance. I enjoyed every minute I spent reading this one.

Summary: It will keep you up all night
Review: Most of us wished we had even a speck of the excitement or passion Eve Dallas does. Full of energy and spunk this "blue collar" worker and her endless battles will not let you put the book down.

Summary: This is a wonderfully entertaining series.
Review: My wife introduced me to J.D. Robb. Usually she reads romance novels and usually I don't, but as she said this is much more - a romance, mystery and (marginally) science fiction series with wonderfully colorful characters. I think I read all seven novels in two weeks and enjoyed them all.

Summary: Positively Garbage!
Review: Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this one stinks! It is set in the future: what a great opportunity for adding an interesting element and yet nothing is made of it! The characters are flat: the protagonist is not the least bit likeable. Her husband seems to function merely as her sex toy as their relationship seems to consist of nothing but panting at the sight of him. Otherwise, she is driven, mean, abrasive--not the kind of person you would want to meet. The mystery itself lacks any kind of suspense and is utterly predictable. Take it from an avid mystery reader: you'll be hard pressed to find anything more ridiculous, predictable and trashy anywhere. Strictly bottom of the barrel.

Summary: Holiday in Death another great addition to the series
Review: The "...in Death" series by J.D. Robb continues with the holiday season and a serial killer on the loose. The killer uses the Christmas carol, "The Twelve Days of Christmas" as his theme for the murders and leaves with each victim a partridge in a pear tree at the first murder scene and two turtledoves at the second scene. Eve discovers that the murderer dresses up as Santa Claus to gain easy entry by the victim. As in the other books in the series, the spicey romance between Eve and Roarke is a pleasant diverstion from murder and mayhem. The book is fast paced and holds the readers interest. If you haven't read any of the other books in this series, start with Naked in Death and read them all. It's a terrific series that will have you waiting and anticipating the next book.

Summary: Another winner.
Review: The 7th book in Jd Robb's "Death" series is Holiday in Death. Like her previous novels, it focuses on Lieutenant Eve Dallas and her husband Roarke and takes place in the future. The series is part sci fi, part romantic suspense, part police procedural drama, part murder mystery. Eve is investigating a serial killer who dresses as Santa claus and chooses his victims via a dating service. The book also re-introduces secondary characters that have appeared in the earlier books- like Eve's partner, Peabody, fellow officers McNab and Feeney, police profiler Mira and reporter Nadine. As each book progresses, we learn more and more about them as well as Eve and Roarke and the world that they inhabit. Eve and Roarke's relationship continues to evolve and he plays more and more of a role in her cases as the series progresses. Its nice to see their relationship develop, despite Eve's abused past and her job. The book blends nicely the relationship part of the series and the murder mystery. Its hard to guess who the ultimate killer is, at least until the very ending. Holiday In Death is a great addition to a great series..can't wait to read the next installment.
