(  ) ktoonen | Oct 26, 2009 |  Another serial killer murder mystery for kick-ass cop Eve Dallas and her entourage to solve. This time the killer is aping famous serialkillers from the past. With several high-profile suspects to choose from, how will Eve get her man? Enjoyable and page turning as always, emotional and evocative. ...in Death is a reliable series. ( ) pauliharman | Aug 13, 2009 | Imitation In Death is a continuation of the In Death series featuring Eve Dallas and her husband Roarke. In this novel, Eve is dealing with a killer who imitates famous serial killers like Jack the Ripper. The killer leaves a note on the body of his first victim addressed to Dallas, and just like that Eve is caught up in a new case. I really enjoyed this book and find that for me this series just gets stronger and better. I love the characters and their relationships with one another which is what makes this series for me. They grow from book to book and it is fun to see it. Eve is prickly and difficult but I just love her as the main character. And the ending of this book was great! I'm so excited to see how this changes or affects Peabody and Eve's relationship or if it doesn't change it at all. Of course, I love this series but if you haven't read it yet then give it a try! ( ) samantha.1020 | Feb 22, 2009 | I like the fact that the murders in this one were based on recognisable cases, even for someone like me who knows very little about true crime! I also got a kick from the mentions of serial killers that occur in the past in Eve’s world, but in our future – gave the series a nice sense of history. Two stand out things, though – Detective Peabody and the fact that finally there was an explanation for ‘New LA’ (  ) ph8 | Jan 5, 2009 | Jack the Ripper The Boston Strangler Ted Bundy Mother thread throughout.

| Book description |
|
Assisted by her aide, Peabody, Eve compiles a list of suspects that includes several high-profile possibilities. Their very prominence, however, complicates the investigation, for they have the power and influence to make the search difficult. All of the suspects are reluctant to cooperate but one of them is playing with Eve like a cat with a mouse by tempting her with crime scene notes and challenging her to find him. Can Eve stop him before he slaughters again? Or will his next victim be Eve herself?
Author Robb, a.k.a. Roberts, doesn't miss a beat in this police procedural thriller. The futuristic setting is rich with imaginative details; the cast of supporting characters offers an intriguing variety, while Eve and Roarke's relationship is layered with emotional intimacy and spiced with sex. Whether you're a faithful follower or new to the series, you won't be disappointed in the edge-of-the-seat suspense in Imitation In Death. Don't miss this one. --Lois Faye Dyer
