Betrayal in Death is the twelfth book to J.D. Robb’s In Death series. I finished reading this book back in December 2020. I’ve been meant to review it, but life gets in the way sometimes.
Storyline/My Thoughts: I cannot get enough of Eve Dallas and Roarke. These two characters, plus the secondary characters, make this series addicting. It also helps with the storylines that J.D. Robb makes these characters go through. The title of this book gives you a hint what is the main storyline. This book is going to test relationships and friendships again. I swear both Eve and Roarke need a vacation so that they can get away from drama and death for a while. (I say that in every review because these two deserve a break.) Unfortunately, they have to solve the current crime(s). This book’s villain is easy to figure out since he’s a hitman, but Eve and her team are unsure why he’s targeting certain people who don’t stand out. Roarke may know why, though, since he’s close to the case. Roarke is always involved somehow. I enjoy it when he helps Eve because she’s so stubborn about having her husband help her.
J.D. Robb has become a favorite author of mine, and I can’t wait to dive into the rest of the In Death series. I hope, though, that J.D. Robb slows down, so I can catch up.
Standalone or Part of Series: It’s part of the In Death series.
Would I recommend this book? Yes. I give this book 4.5 stars, and I would recommend this book/series. If you enjoy Romantic Suspense, then you will enjoy this series. If you also love your storylines set in the future, you’ll enjoy this series. I know one thing there better be real coffee in my future and not the fake stuff. I can’t live without my coffee, and when Eve first described coffee, I was upset, but now she gets the good stuff due to Roarke. 🙂
