Indulgence in Death

Eve returns home from a vacation with her husband Roarke just in time to investigate a murder where the victim died using an exotic weapon. As more deaths occur with the same theme of exotic weapons, Eve closes in on the killer but fails to realize that she is the ultimate target.

Fans of this series will enjoy this new addition to their collection. Closer to the beginning of this book, while vacationing in Ireland, we see Eve more relaxed and open to the love and commitment she experiences with Roarke's family. Still slightly uncomfortable with the idea of family and just what it means, Eve has come a long way since the first books of the series. I love seeing how she interacts with family and how sweet and understanding Roarke is with her. Their relationship is definitely a highlight in these books. As soon as Eve is back in her element – New York and investigating a murder – she becomes the savvy and intelliigent officer that we expect. I do enjoy her interaction with her comrades and how she is evolving as a friend while still being the Lieutenant. While Indulgence in Death does have several murders and the investigation keeps Eve very busy, I believe the biggest draw is Eve's relationships with her friends, coworkers and of course Roarke.
