Salvation in Death ~ J. D. Robb

This is the latest book in the Eve Dallas series, I admit, I have lost count.

Eve is  called to the murder of a priest, who was poisoned during a funeral mass, only, it seems, he is not who he has claimed to be for the last five years, and not really a priest. Can Eve, along with Peabody and Rourke, figure out who the he really was, and why he was murdered? Add to the case that a couple of days after the first murder, another preacher is killed by the same method, poison, in front of the crowd he was preaching for. Can Eve tie the two together, are they even related?

Strangers in Death ~ J. D. Robb

Another book in the Eve Dallas series (honestly, I have lost count, but it is the most recent, at this time.) Eve has caught another murder, this time a wealthy sporting goods tycoon, who just happens to have offices in the same building as Rourke. Eve figures out fairly quickly who is responsible for the murder, now she just has to prove it! All the old cast are back, including Charles, who we don’t see all that often. I really enjoyed this one.
