![]() No current Talk conversations about this book. Interlude in Death 4 Stars At an off-planet law enforcement conference, Lieutenant Eve Dallas finds herself investigating the violent death of a man with whom she had a previous altercation . The case becomes even more fraught when it becomes clear that Roarke is being framed for the crime. This is the 2nd novella in the series and is, despite its shorter length, a self-contained story. Even though the motive for the crime is never in doubt, the investigation is still compelling mainly due to the insights into Roarke's backstory and a couple of very suspenseful moments. There are also some hints at deeper connections between Eve and Roarke that are very tantalizing and it will be interesting to see the direction in which Robb takes them. In sum, a short yet sweet addition to the series. NYPSD homicide detective Lieutenant Eve Dallas is not happy. Sheâs off-planet at a law enforcement conference where she scheduled to give a speech and host a seminar. And Eve is decidedly unhappy about both of those things. Their stay at the swanky Olympus Resort [Roarkeâs, of course] is supposed to be part vacation, but murder interrupts in a very personal way: Eve has a history with the victim and Roarke has a history with the killer. Can Eve untangle the off-planet crime and put an end to the cycle of revenge? This âIn Deathâ novella follows the events recounted in âBetrayal in Deathâ and finds several of the expected characters attending the off-planet conference. Despite its short length, the narrative brings readers all the things they have come to expect from an âIn Depthâ story: a strong sense of place, well-developed, nuanced characters, and an intriguing mystery. In addition, thereâs some interesting backstory for Roarke as well as dashes of suspense, humor, and romance. Readers, both returning and new, will enjoy the unfolding story. Highly recommended. no reviews | add a review

Interlude in Death is a fun locked-door/planet mystery. At its heart, however, are Eve and Roarke. While we have seen them work together in the past, this is the first story where we see them wholly reliant on each other. There is no fuss, no arguing. Nothing but cooperation and collaboration. As I said before, it is a nice reprieve from the intensity of the past novels.
