J. D. Robb Collection 6: Portrait in Death, Imitation in Death, and Divided in Death

In Death #16-18

by J.D. Robb, Susan Ericksen (Narrator)

Portrait in Death: After a tip from a reporter, Eve Dallas finds the body of a young woman in a Delancey Street dumpster. Now Dallas is on the trail of a killer who's a perfectionist and an artist. He carefully observes and records his victim's every move. And he has a mission: to own every beautiful young woman's innocence, to capture her youth and vitality - in one fateful shot... Imitation in Death: Summer, 2059. A man wearing a cape and a top hat approaches a prostitute on a dark, New York City street. Minutes later, the woman is dead. Left at the scene is a letter addressed to Lieutenant Eve Dallas, inviting her to play his game and unveil his identity. He signs it, "Jack." All Eve knows is that he plans to mimic the most infamous murderers of all ? starting with Jack the Ripper... Divided in Death: Reva Ewing, a security specialist for Roarke Enterprises, is a prime suspect in a double homicide. But Lieutenant Eve Dallas discovers that at nearly the exact time a kitchen knife was jammed into the victim's ribs, the passcode to his art studio was changed - and all of the data on his computer deliberately corrupted. Eve and Roarke must infiltrate an extraordinarily secretive government agency to expose the corruption at its core, before the virus spreads from one office to a corporation to the entire country.

Reviews

[Jeri L. Moseley · Rating 5 out of 5]

They just keep getting better and better! This is my all time, numero uno, favorite series! I own and have read or am in the process of reading every book in this series. From Naked in Death when you get sucked into Eve's raw and gritty world and then teased with Roarke's world of glitz and glam to every heartbreaking crime after, they are all marvelous. I devour every word and I'm not ashamed or embarrassed to admit that I reread the series twice a year every new book is published.

This is one of the best detective/romantic series I have ever read - and I'm an avid reader. So glad they're beginning to start 'collections' of some volumes. Always looking forward to the next one!

Only read Imitation of Death.
This one was about someone copying all the different serial killers.

The amazing storyline keeps me coming back to read this series again and again.

[Marie Easthope · Rating 4 out of 5]

I completely am in love with this series! My only regret is that I can't find them all at my Libraries that I have access to! Specifically I'm looking for them in Audio books as I'm in my car a lot of the time in the day. I have one in my car, and I have a different one I listen to in my bedroom!

[David Hoyt · Rating 4 out of 5]

I give the overall series a 4. Some books are better than others, naturally. This is an omnibus version with five books. The series is best read in order, but it is not required.

[Stephanie · Rating 5 out of 5]

Divided in death was a big turning point in the series
