Origin in Death (In Death #21)
Even more than the previous in the series, I couldn't put this down. The action picked up very quickly from the first page, and through some nice plot twists and turns, came a delicious climax, of which the build-up hit me like a hammer blow. Including a bunch of off-case things was an excellent touch and had me grinning, and I agreed with more use of the side cast in this book. The final battle as it were was a tad farcical, but fit well in the theme of the book. The resolution didn't really
With this series set in the future, J.D. Robb is able to weave in some speculative sci fi themes which works really well in this episode.When Dr Wilfred B. Icove, a renowned pioneer of modern reconstructive and cosmetic surgery is found dead in his office with a very precise stab to his aorta, Lt Eve Dallas is very impressed at the blatancy of the killer, a calm, attractive young woman but wonders what Dr Icove could have done to have driven her to murder.

3.5 stars
Since the beginning of the series I was expecting this issue to come up! And here it is!!! Its really creepy to think that this leitmotiv is a very old one! And here it was explored very well!Still, apart from this very thorny idea, therere, as always some really funny moments! Which is why I love this series!!! But its programmed in, Dallas. They dont live or think.They want you to believe that. They talk to each other through their little chips and boards, and are probably plotting to destroy
Spoilers ahead, 2.5*This one features a more sci-fi plot than previous books as brilliant doctors abuse the trust placed in them to run a secret program cloning women. When the doctors are found murdered Eve's on the case.I liked that the women were not charged because what was done to them was truly horrificFor the first time I found myself not liking Eve in her relationship with Roarke. In every book he is fully supportive of her but in this case wth his family's visit when he was a bit
Another awesome read! Emotions, suspense, super evilness, good bad guys, sweetness, some twists, action, surprises, family and a good ending. Another great read that had me burning through the pages. The relationships were great, humor had me laughing or snickering, tight spots had me holding my breath and the ending left me with a smile. A super good book in a series that gets better and better. Can't wait to read the next! Enjoy!

Suspense 4.5 stars / Romance 4.5 starsExtremely interesting and unique plot. One of the books I was on the killers side, I admired her (yes, the killer was a woman!) and even cried at the end.Beauty, cloning, beauty.The romance was sweet and perfect; I just didnt get why they wrote about one of Roarkes exes at the beginning? Was it really necessary? Invite them all in one story, make an orgy and let it go!Eve my love!Even more than the previous in the series, I couldn't put this down.
