Fury in Death by J. D. Robb: Review

I have been a fan of this author for years. I just love her writing patterns and the flow of her stories.

Unfortunately, it has been several years since I have read a book in this series. Once I started diving into this new upcoming release, I found myself asking why? What was going on with me that I got away from reading these books?

Thankfully, not much has changed in terms of the core characters, and I was immediately sucked right back into the story. Check out my thoughts on this thrilling book below.

OVERVIEW:
NYSPD Lieutenant Eve Dallas never knows what to expect when she gets word of a body. It could be an elderly man who made the mistake of climbing a ladder in slippery footwear. And the next call could be a wealthy biotech executive beaten to death in his home office―but what was Larry Chu’s mistake?

The victim’s corpse is so mangled and damaged it’s hard to believe a lone, unarmed assailant could have managed it. The killer was clearly unnaturally strong―and smart enough to find a way into Chu’s highly secure building. Most of all, whoever did this was very, very angry.

The excessive violence leads Dallas to conclude that this was a deeply personal act, born of a rage that she can’t excuse but can understand thanks to her own traumatic past. And though the motive seems rooted in heated emotion rather than cold, hard cash, she can’t ignore the suspicious bank account in the Cayman Islands, or the shadowy, profit-hungry company Chu worked for. The mystery only grows when it turns out Chu isn’t the only victim―and Dallas will need to tear through one layer of secrecy after another to reveal what lies behind this explosion of fury…

Fury in Death by J. D. Robb Review

If you’re a fan of police procedural and thriller/suspense books, then more than likely you have probably read a book by this author.

What I find fascinating is Robb’s inventiveness in terms of the plot and the overall story. It’s never boring. You get a fast-paced book written in her favorite short, quick-moving prose. You also get scenarios that are believable yet inventive.

Eve is at the top of her game, and I love the combination of bringing in her husband into the mix. Together, they are wicked smart and can figure out the toughest cases.

Lt. Dallas is still one tough cookie, and I absolutely love their relationship that the author showcases often. I think it makes for an engaging read with the positivity and soft human side of her balancing out some of the negativity and violence in the stories.

Once again, I find an addiction forming for this author and this particular series.

The good news is there’s a lot of back stories I can read to catch up. The bad news is I see the end book number of this In Death series, and I am not thrilled.

Fury in Death is electrifying and fast-paced! Robb is still at the top of the game with thriller and suspense books that will keep you up late at night for just one more chapter. Definitely don’t miss this one.

5 STARS!!
