Publisher's Summary

"Narrator Susan Ericksen's performance vibrates with energy, as she portrays old and new characters in this series."—AudioFile on Desperation in Death, an Earphones Award winner.

Homicide Detective Eve Dallas hunts a killer who turns a wedding party into a murder scene in the next novel by the #1 New York Times bestselling author, J.D. Robb, Passions in Death.

On a hot August night, Lt. Eve Dallas and her husband, Roarke, speed through the streets of Manhattan to the Down and Dirty club, where a joyful, boisterous pre-wedding girls’ night out has turned into a murder scene. One of the brides lies in a pool of blood, garroted in a private room where she was preparing a surprise for her fiancée—two scrimped and saved-for tickets to Hawaii.

Despite the dozens of people present, useful witnesses are hard to come by. It all brings back some bad memories for Eve who once suffered an assault in the very same room—but she’d been able to fight back and survive. She’d gotten justice. And now she needs to provide some for poor young Erin.

Eve knows that the level of violence and the apparent premeditation involved suggest a volatile mix of hidden, heated passion and ice-cold calculation. This is a crime that can be countered only by hard detective work and relentless dedication—and Eve will not stop until she finds the killer who destroyed this couple’s dreams before the honeymoon even began....

What the critics say

"Puts the “procedure” rewardingly back into the police procedural."—Kirkus

"With the fifty-eighth irresistibly readable entry in the ever-popular Eve Dallas series, Robb (Payback in Death, 2023) continues to showcase her mastery when it comes to creating inventive plots generously spiked with nail-biting suspense and populated with compelling characters, including Eve, who never stops working to bring justice to the victims in every murder case she investigates."—Booklist

no action here

seems that the storyline is lacking. i love all of the in death books. some more than others. but, this one was a little disappointing. there was zero action. no personal story except one visit to the house and half our favorite characters were not here. the narrator, who I love in all the series, did a good job with what was there, but sounded a little congested.

Eve shares her thoughts

Sometimes these stories are all about the surprise twist, and sometimes about shock or drama, and I enjoy all of it. But in this one we got a lot more insight into Eve in regular detective mode, and that's fun too.

Another great addition to the series

The timing was perfect. I just finished listening to the entire series from Naked in Death to Random in Death when this came. It is always amazing how the stories in this world are so well developed and Susan Erickson’s performance is so nuanced that you forget that it’s not a full-cast production.

love this series

I love this in death series. I did not give it a perfect score because the reader kept calling Dallas's partner Peabuddy. it was annoying.
