Yet Another Eve Dallas Story....

Book Info: Ceremony In Death by J.D. Robb. Originally published by Berkley in 1997.

Another sleepless night, another J.D. Robb novel.

The death of a cop and his granddaughter opens this novels and places Eve yet again in the hot seat. Clearing the other cops and navigating the emotion minefields are tricky for Eve. Especially when those you fight with one who knows all of your soft spots. i.e. Feeney This time we get to see Roarke explain things to Feeney instead of the reverse from the first book.

The moving scene where Eve breaks down after Feeney takes his shot is pretty powerful. For women who feel they must be strong at all times, we all wish for a Roarke to help us when we can't hold it together any more.

We also get to meet Jaimie for the first time. This computer wiz who impresses us with not only his mental abilities but also with his ability to handle the horrors with which he is faced. We also see that Roarke is still in touch with the Barristers from book one as well. Robb continues to connect the various books in the series allowing us to begin to really see the world that has been created.
