Summary: Absolute fun!
Review: What can I say that all the others haven't? Okay, this series of books is absolute fun. Though I've definitely crossed the gap into middleagedom, I want to be Eve Dallas when I grow up ...even more I want to have Rourke when I grow up. I've devoured each book in this series in one-sitting reads and Holiday in Death was no disappointment. The characters are full-bodied, but still growing, the mysteries riveting, and the romance sizzling. Eve is the perfect heroine, and Rourke her perfect mate. Keep writing, Nora!

Summary: J.D. Robb is at the top of her game
Review: With 2058 coming to an end, the holiday season is in full sing even though a serial killer is on the loose. Getting into the spirit of Christmas, the killer uses the carol "The Twelve Days of Christmas" as his theme. He has left behind with his victims a partridge in a pear tree, two turtle doves, etc. He dresses up as Santa in order to obtain easy access to his victim's home. Just returning to duty after recovering from injuries sustained on her last case, New York police lieutenant Eve Dallas is heading up the investigation. The perpetrator strikes a bit too close to home for the compassionate cop as it reminds her of the atrocities her father did to her. As the murder count rises and her case going nowhere, Eve goes all out, including outside the law, to bring down the culprit. J.D. Robb pens another exciting futurist thriller that will make her many fans feel as if Christmas has arrived in summer. Although the romance is an intricate part of the story line, the primary thrust centers on the identity of the killer, especially with the array of viable suspects. The glimpses into the heroine's past help the reader understand her motives, adding a brilliant personal touch to the story. Ms. Robb continues to scribe one of the best series on the market today.
