Passions in Death by JD Robb.

I have had this book in my cue for a while. It is the 59th book in the series.  I was given the book from NetGalley for free in exchange for an honest review.  I’ve tried to ignore it, but I could hear the book calling for me, but the book doesn’t come out until the third of September.  Well, I broke down and read the book today!  Once again to be swept into the futuristic world of NYC with Dallas, Peabody, Roarke, Dr Mira and all the other wonderful characters that make up the In Death Series by J.D. Robb.  

Dallas is notified late one night (or early in the morning) about a murder at a club, the Down and Dirty club, where a murder has been committed.  That particular Monday night a pre-wedding party was celebrating with their friends.  One of the brides has been found dead, in the room where Eve was almost murdered a few years ago on the eve of her wedding to Roarke.  While the scene is nothing like hers, there are flashbacks to remind us of all the prior happenings.  

The story as always weaves through the various people at the party and in the sphere of the two brides.  Dallas and Peabody are relentless in tracking down various people and looking at the interviews and facts, until they find a small clue.  From that, they are merciless until they have what is needed and pull the guilty party into cop central.  What a great ride!

I love JD Robb’s books.  I love Eve and Roarke and the stories of their world.  I love how Eve stands for the victims.  I love how she interacts with the world and her nativity with social customs.  I was in heaven reading the novel and know that this book will be loved by others.  Passions in Death by JD Robb was an awesome read!!!
