Very enjoyable go around this time. I didn't see the bad guy coming. I am tiring a bit on the house subplot so hopefully that wraps soon.

Abandoned in Death by JD Robb
I give this book 4.25 stars

3 young women have gone missing. But no one links their disappearances until the first is found lying peacefully on a bench in a children's playground.Her hands are folded over a childish sign on which is written in black crayon - BAD MOMMY.

Lt Eve Dallas and her team are brought in to investigate Lauren's murder and uncover the links to the other two women. Can they find out enough about the missing women and unmask their captor before they kill again....?

Although this is book 54 it’s the first one lve read.l love Nora Roberts and had no idea she was JD Robb.
I took to Eve straight away she’s a strong female lead.,tough,smart and compassionate This book covers more of the Police procedural side of the story which l find intriguing, and l really enjoyed how the main characters personal lives were mixed into the case.l found it well written with a solid plot, it completely held my attention and I had no idea who the killer was.
Was it good enough to make me want to start from book 1 and read them all…… the answer is YES!
With thanks to Netgalley,JD Robb and Little, Brown Book Group UK, Piatkus for my chance to read and review this book

Fricken fabulous. Best one. Hit on all cylinders. Plot, crime, killer. Plus the lives of the usuals: McNab and Peabody. Dallas and Roarke. Mavis and family. All the cops. Jamie and Quilla -hope there is more there. This is why my cat is named McNab and my dog, Mavis.
