In Death: The First Cases
J. D. Robb
Naked in Death "In Death #1" (originally
published in July 1995)
It is the year 2058, and technology now completely rules the
world. But New York City Detective Eve Dallas knows that the
irresistible impulses of the human heart are still ruled by
just one thing-passion.
When a senator's daughter is killed, the secret life of
prostitution she'd been leading is revealed. The
high-profile case takes Lieutenant Eve Dallas into the
rarefied circles of Washing-ton politics and society.
Further complicating matters is Eve's growing attraction to
Roarke, who is one of the wealthiest and most influential
men on the planet, devilishly handsome . . . and the leading
suspect in the investigation.
Glory in Death "In Death #2" (originally
published in December 1995)
The dead were her business. She lived with them, worked with
them, studied them. She dreamed of them. And because that
didn't seem to be enough, in some deep, secret chamber of
her heart, she mourned for them.
The first victim is found lying on a sidewalk in the rain.
The second murdered in her own apartment building. Police
Lieutenant Eve Dallas has no problem finding connections
between the two crimes. Both victims are beautiful and
highly successful women; their glamorous lives and loves
were the talk of the city. And their intimate relations with
men of great power and wealth provide Eve with a long list
of suspectsincluding her own lover, Roarke. As a
woman, Eve is compelled to trust the man who shares her bed.
But as a cop, it's her job to follow every lead...to explore
every secret passion, no matter how dark. Or how dangerous
