#InDeathLongReadalong #IDLR Ch.6-10: things are getting more serious as a group calling themselves Cassandra blows up one of Roarke‘s buildings and targets another. They see Eve as their adversary and she has ties to the highest “capitalist” of them all. Eve is trying to stop another bombing disaster like one that happened earlier in the century. ⬇️

StayCurious She‘s distracted from the Branson murder. But we find out that the brother of the victim is abusing his wife. Who happens to be the object of affection for Peabody‘s brother Zeke. What a complicated situation! 13h
LiseWorks Oh RedGreen love it 8h

#InDeathLongReadalong #IDLR Ch.1-5: this one has an interesting start where Eve is called to a case where a man is dead and his lover/killer is awaiting the cops and ready to confess. At first we think this will be open and shut but it becomes more complex and there is the question of justice being served and what is the true motive. ⬇️

StayCurious Also, there is another case that Eve is reluctant to get involved in but finds herself being sucked in: one of her weasels reports that his friend was killed after making bombs for someone. This is probably linked to the creepy prologue. We also get to meet Peabody‘s adorable brother. It‘s great to see her in family mode. But is he linked to Eve‘s case? (edited) 1w
LiseWorks I love that we get to know Peabody more. I just hope her brother isn't involved in getting to Eve because that prologue was intense 7d
TheAromaofBooks @LiseWorks - It's so fun to see another facet of Peabody. I really enjoy how much she loves her family, even though she's chosen to take a path very different from theirs. But if something happens to her brother I'm going to be super upset!! 7d
StayCurious @TheAromaofBooks @LiseWorks I can see Zeke being used as a pawn in a grander scheme - he‘s sweetly naive 6d

Another great entry in the series! Eve really battled her emotions in this one, and the whole plot line was very dark and very sinister. On to the next! #InDeathLongReadalong

StayCurious Thanks so much for reading along with us! 3w

#InDeathLongReadalong #IDLR Sorry, I was listening to this on audiobook and I didn‘t realize there were more than 20 chapters - this is the longest in death book so far, probably because of the importance of Eve losing and regaining her badge. I enjoyed the finale of this one, it was - as usual - intense. I hope we see more of Louise in later books (I think we do but can‘t quite recall) - she‘s a good match for Eve. ⬇️

StayCurious I loved seeing the loyalty of Eve‘s group of friends in this book. They really stood by her. She can‘t deny their bond now. If I was Eve I would probably still be hurt/pissed at the NYPSD but hopefully she‘ll get past it. (edited) 3w
TheAromaofBooks I only have the two chapters left, but I have really been enjoying this one! It's quite the emotional ride, and seeing how loyal everyone is to Eve has been great. 3w
ShananigansReads I thought this book was longer than usual but I can‘t depend on my memory. I love the family/support system Eve has built for herself. 3w

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong Ch.11-15: Boy, what a tough few chapters for Eve. Bowers puts up more complaints and goes to the media with wild accusations. Then she is killed and Eve is suspect # 1! Before she can get over that shock, her badge and gun are taken and she‘s suspended. This is devastating for Eve who feels like her identity is taken from her. Roarke will need to be there to help her through it even if he has to give her tough love.⬇️

StayCurious Eve has certainly pissed people off in her other cases but this killer goes for what matters to her the most. She‘s in for the fight of her life if she wants her career to survive. 1mo
LiseWorks I really loved the snow scene with Eve enjoying the snow. It was great. 1mo

ShananigansReads I don‘t condone murder but I was glad to see Bowers go. I love the support system that Eve has. 1mo
StayCurious @ShananigansReads yeah Bowers was off her rocker 1mo
Librarybelle This was a hard section to read. Thank goodness Eve has friends and family who can support her during this time. 1mo
TheAromaofBooks I get that being a cop is a huge part of Eve's identity, but it also feels like she has been a cop for long enough to understand that protocol has to be followed, regardless of personal feelings or opinions. It just seems like she would have a little more faith in the system and its ability to clear her. 4w
StayCurious @TheAromaofBooks yeah you would think. That‘s a really good point. 4w

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong Ch.6-10: we meet Louise Dimatto, an overworked doctor who works at the clinic that saw two of Eve‘s victims. Eve wants her to be a consultant on the case. She also happens to be a top surgeon‘s niece which could be suspicious. Eve interrogates different doctors at a fancy party and pisses someone off enough that they send a droid to warn her off the case.⬇️

StayCurious Looks like Eve is getting under the surgeons‘ skins…she‘s good at hitting the right nerve. There are a lot of suspects this time, and they‘re all in their own little club. It‘s hard to break in. And Eve is still dealing with trouble from Bowers and with her own memories. 1mo
Librarybelle That last scene…wow! Eve is definitely making someone nervous! 1mo
LitStephanie I kind of like that Eve is so rude and ruthless. She would be an unrealistic character if she was full of only shining, admirable qualities. 1mo
LiseWorks Eve seems to have no patience in this one. I like how she is vulnerable and she fights for the little guy 1mo

#InDeathLongReadalong #IDLR We dive right into a murder in the start of 2059. And it‘s a nasty one - a homeless man has his heart expertly surgically removed. This peaks Eve and the medical examiner‘s curiosity as the man would‘ve likely died on his own in 6 months. So why take his heart? Eve is going to find out. But there‘s a conflict with a uniform that is promising to cause a lot of drama.⬇️

StayCurious A woman with a keen hatred for Eve who wants her erased. From the force at the very least. Luckily Eve has the support of her commander and fellow cops. 1mo
LiseWorks We also meet officer Trueheart. I was pleasantly surprised as how early in the series we meet him 1mo
Librarybelle This was a good start to this book. And Bowers…just wow… 1mo
ShananigansReads Bowers is the worst and I‘m glad it‘s already known so others will stand up with/for Eve. 1mo
