Strangers in Death - Softcover
Lieutenant Eve Dallas explores the hidden connections among friends and lovers, enemies and strangers in this thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling In Death series.
In 2060 New York, some murders still get more attention than others, especially those in which the victim is a prominent businessman, found in his Park Avenue apartment, tied to the bed—and strangled—with cords of black velvet. Fortunately, homicide cop Lt. Eve Dallas’s billionaire husband Roarke happens to own the prime real estate where Thomas Anders’s sporting-goods firm was headquartered, giving her some help with access. Before long, she’s knocking on doors—or barging through them—to look for the answers she needs.
But some things don’t add up—and everyone’s alibi checks out, from the wife who was off in the tropics to the nephew who stood to inherit millions. Was this a crime of passion—or a carefully planned execution? It’s up to Dallas to solve a sensational case in which those who seem to be intimates sometimes guard secrets from each other—and strangers may be connected in unexpected, and deadly, ways...

About the Author:
J. D. Robb is the pseudonym for a #1 New York Times bestselling author of more than 200 novels, including the bestselling In Death series. There are more than 500 million copies of her books in print.
From AudioFile:
This fast-paced installment of the Eve and Roarke series, which takes place in 2060, is concisely narrated with verve and humor by Susan Ericksen. Her reading integrates the mystery of philanthropist Thomas Anders's scandalous death with Lieutenant Eve Dallas's hot relationship with her Irish billionaire husband, Roarke. Eve's sidekick, Detective Delia Peabody, is a character of warmth and humor--in contrast to Dallas's hard-nosed, aggressive style. Ericksen portrays these various characters with unique voices that are compatible with their personalities. Her Irish accent for Roarke is uncannily believable as is the voice of a character who is suffering from a terrible cold. The production is engaging, and Ericksen's verbal nuances add drama to the novel. S.C.A. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
