"THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING SERIES . . . The chilling new suspense novel from the author of Brotherhood in Death. After a party in New York, Lieutenant Eve Dallas rides home with her billionaire husband, Roarke, happy to be done with cocktails and small talk. After another party, not far away, a woman retires to her bedroom with her husband--and walks into a brutal nightmare. Their paths are about to collide... When the young woman--dazed, naked, and bloody--wanders in front of their car, Roarke slams on the brakes just in time, and Eve, still in glittering gown and heels, springs into action. It's been a long night for the tired homicide cop, and it's far from over. Daphne Strazza is rushed to the ER, but it's too late for Dr. Anthony Strazza. A brilliant orthopedic surgeon, he now lies dead amid the wreckage of his obsessively organized town house, his three safes opened and emptied. Daphne would be a valuable witness, but in her terror and shock the only description of the perp she can offer is repeatedly calling him "the devil" . . . While it emerges that Dr. Strazza was cold, controlling, and widely disliked--and that he treated Daphne like a trophy wife--this is one case where the evidence doesn't point to the spouse as the first suspect. So Eve and her team must get started on the legwork, interviewing everyone from dinner-party guests to professional colleagues to caterers, in a desperate race to answer some crucial questions: What does the devil look like? And where will he show up next?"--… (altro)

Echoes in Death by J D Robb
In Death series #44. Futuristic police procedural. Best read as part of the series.
As NY Lt. Eve Dallas and her billionaire husband, Roarke, are driving home one night, a young woman stumbles out in front of of their car. She’s dazed, naked, and bloody and Eve begins the police investigation. The victim’s husband is dead and there are clear signs beatings, rape and burglary. When a second couple is found in the same condition, Eve and her team must tie all the pieces together to find the perpetrator before he strikes again.

Fast moving and intense, Eve and her team plus Roarke as specialist, search buildings, financial statements and electronics to find a killer.
These last few books have been especially grim and bloody. It’s all described in third person, past tense, so the reader is not actually active in the scene, but Eve visualizes how the evidence shows what happened, and it can be ugly.
Secondary characters are recurring and add depth to the story continuity as well as a bit of levity with clothing or vocabulary choices.

I’m instantly drawn into this world over and over again. It never disappoints. ( )

Coming home with Roarke after an evening being his wife complete with the fancy dress and killer shoes, Eve Dallas finds herself in a new murder investigation when a naked, disoriented woman stumbles out in front of their car. They rush her to the hospital and then Eve and Roarke go back to see where she came from. There they discover her dead husband.

Daphne Strazza is convinced that she and her husband were attacked by the devil. Her husband was assaulted and she was assaulted and raped. Eve gets vibes that all wasn't right in the Strazza marriage as she interviews Daphne and has flashbacks to her own childhood when she was assaulted and raped by her own father. She has to put her memories aside to find out who assaulted the Strazza's and killed Dr. Anthony Strazza.

Her investigation leads to two other cases that were eerily similar. Eve and her team including Peabody and McNab are in a rush to find the criminal before he strikes again since he seems to be escalating the violence each time he attacks.

This was an excellent police procedural as we follow the many threads of the investigation. It was also a wonderful romance as we see the relationship Eve and Roarke have built for themselves. I enjoy the mysteries in these stories but I think I like seeing Eve and Roarke's relationship best of all. I can't wait for their next adventure. ( )

Eve's day was going so well, just back from a holiday and attend a fancy do when a woman stumbles out from the shadows beside them, evidently in shock and bloodied. She stops to investigate and discovers her dead husband. During the investigation they discover secrets and lies and a series of victims, finding the links and the person behind the killings will change everything. ( )

I love this series and this one did not disappoint me. Eve and Roarke work so well together. I loved learning more about Eve from when she was growing up. I love Peabody, McNab, Mavis and all the other great characters that this author has created for this series. I loved the action in the story and how Eve solves the crime with a lot of help. I could not put the book down. ( )
