About this listen

THE FIRST NOVEL IN THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING IN DEATH SERIES

It is 2058, New York City. Technology now completely rules the world, but for New York Detective Eve Dallas, one irresistible impulse still rules the heart: passion...

Eve Dallas is a New York police lieutenant hunting for a ruthless killer. In over ten years on the force, she’s seen it all - and knows her survival depends on her instincts. And she’s going against every warning telling her not to get involved with Roarke, an Irish billionaire - and a suspect in Eve’s murder investigation. But passion and seduction have rules of their own, and it’s up to Eve to take a chance in the arms of a man she knows nothing about - except the addictive hunger of needing his touch.

Crack another case with Eve Dallas.©1995 by Nora Roberts. (P)2004 Brilliance Audio, all rights reserved. Crime Fiction Mystery Suspense Thriller & Suspense Fiction New York Crime Exciting Heartfelt Romance

The story wasn’t bad but the 1995 guesses of technology of the future have not aged well. A stupid little thing that annoyed me in the use of lighted a cigarette instead of lit. Will probably listen to the next episode.

Not a bad story

Eve Dallas is the 'Jack Reacher' of the 21st Century, and I'm completely hooked on this series. This series is full of life, and Eve has the right kind of attitude for a 'kick-ass New York cop'.

Normally my wife is badly allergic to cliches, but for some reason the 'In Death' series carries off the occasional cliche with great aplomb and humour, and we both thoroughly enjoy the series.

The start of a great series

Have read a few of these books and find them entertaining and page turning. Doesn't matter if you read out of sequence although it was good to learn their history by reading the first book. Well written and a potential glimpse into the future !

Great first book in fab series

An easy listen, story was ok, there were no surprises or anything much to make me get the second book.

Mediochre

This was a stunningly well written murder romance set just far enough into the future to give it a different feel. Amazing world building and character creation as well as the complexity of the plot which keeps you on the edge of your seat.
Loved it!
Highly recommended.
Great narration

Brilliantly compelling start to a series!

This makes a brilliant start to a series of crime thrillers that tell the background story to the characters as they move forward solving murders, developing romances and keeping the peace. All is threaded with a little humour and the technology blips that keep life fun.

Excellent book

An interesting take on a crime theme. Some reviewers mentioned the Rourke accent as wrong, I wish they hadn't because I waited for it and didn't think it was to bad but every time he featured in the book I kept thinking 'that's not to bad' Arrgh. looking forward to next in series. recommended...

Enjoyable.. looking forward to starting book 2.

Good story line

Slightly let down for me by the narrator's Irish accent for Roarke - just didn't sound quite right.

Excellent story.

Would you listen to Naked in Death: In Death, Book 1 again? Why?

Yes, I feel like listening to it again right now. I miss the characters already. Eve Dallas's character is so vulnerable yet strong and Roarke is just brilliant.

Who was your favorite character and why?

My favourite character is Roarke. Who wouldn't want a guy like that.

What does Susan Ericksen bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

She brings the character to life. I wasn't too sure about the Irish accent at first but I got used to it and it was easy to tell the difference between the characters.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Yes there was a scene that I found very powerful just after Eve had to go to testing. I won't spoil it by elaborating but you could feel the mood. Also the sex scene was extremely good.

Any additional comments?

I don't know whether to re listen to this one or go straight onto the second one but I'm hooked.

This book is so good
