Brotherhood in Death (In Death Series #42)

by J. D. Robb

Overview

In this thrilling novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling In Death series, Lieutenant Eve Dallas finds herself in the middle of a conspiracy when she investigates the disappearance of a former U.S. Senator.
 
Just as Dennis Mira is about to confront his cousin Edward about selling the West Village brownstone that belonged to their grandfather, he gets a shock: Edward is in front of him, bruised and bloody...and then everything goes black.
 
When Dennis comes to, Edward is gone. Luckily Dennis’s wife is a top profiler for the NYPSD—and a close colleague of Lieutenant Eve Dallas. Now Eve is determined to uncover the secrets of Edward Mira and learn what enemies he may have made in his long career as a lawyer, judge, and senator. A badge and a billionaire husband can get you access to places others can’t go, and Eve intends to shine some light on the dirty deals and dark motives behind the disappearance of a powerful man, the family discord over a multimillion-dollar piece of real estate...and a new case that no one saw coming.

From the Publisher

02/22/2016
Bestseller Robb's subpar 42nd novel set in a near-future New York (after 2015's Devoted in Death) finds Eve's friend Dennis Mira, husband of her psychiatrist colleague, Charlotte Mira, requesting her help after his cousin, former U.S. senator Edward Mira, goes missing, presumably kidnapped. It doesn't take long for Edward's corpse to show up or for another similarly tortured and abused victim to be discovered. Edward was a serial adulterer, and as Eve tracks down his paramours, she discovers disturbing connections. Links between Edward and the second victim also appear, and Eve, assisted as always by her lover, Roarke, and supporting staff, engages in a race to identify the killers and protect other likely victims. The crimes are ugly and the victims more so, and Eve has to fight through her own brutal past in this less than sparking entry in Robb's popular series. Agent: Amy Berkower, Writers House. (Feb.)

In this latest starring Lt. Eve Dallas, Dennis Mira is about to chastise his cousin, judge/senator Edward Mira, for selling their grandfather's West Village brownstone when Edward appears, battered and bloodied, then promptly vanishes.

Library Journal

In this installment in the In Death series, Lt. Eve Dallas, of the New York City Police, is faced with solving a crime that starts close to home, with the assault of her close friend, Dennis Mira. Susan Ericksen continues her narration of this series as only she can, with a deep no-nonsense voice for Eve and a quieter Irish-accented voice for Rourke, Eve’s husband. The mystery is full of twists and turns as Eve and her team track down the brotherhood and find the truth behind the murders. Ericksen’s reading keeps up with the action and emotion as she uses changes in pitch and tone to match the mood. This audiobook can be listened to as a stand-alone title or as part of the series.
