Shadows in Death by J.D. Robb

 Shadows in Death: An Eve Dallas Novel

3.5 Stars

Eve and Roarke are back for another murder.  When they arrive at a murder scene Roarke sees a man from his pasted and knows he is the one who killed the woman Eve is standing for.  Eve knows the husband hired someone to kill his wife and she needs to be careful tracking him down as the Lorcan Cobbe has a grudge against her husband.  With the help of their friends and associates they will get Cobbe before he hurts anyone they love.

This was a weird one for me to review.  I’ve read this series for years and so there are certain behaviors I expect from the characters and when those behaviors change it is a bit jarring.  In this book there is some character behaviors that changed and without explanation.  I also felt the original murder took a back seat to the search for Cobbe.  He was the story and not the murdered woman.  Overall, it was a good story but as a long time reader of the series parts were a bit jarring.
