Glory in Death (In Death 2.) 5 csillagozás
It is 2058, New York City. In a world where technology can reveal the darkest of secrets, there's only one place to hide a crime of passion-in the heart.
Even in the mid-twenty-first century, during a time when genetic testing usually weeds out any violent hereditary traits before they can take over, murder still happens. The first victim is found lying on a sidewalk in the rain. The second is murdered in her own apartment building. Police Lieutenant Eve Dallas has no problem finding connections between the two crimes. Both victims were beautiful and highly successful women. Their glamorous lives and loves were the talk of the city. And their intimate relations with men of great power and wealth provide Eve with a long list of suspects-including her own lover, Roarke.
Eredeti megjelenés éve: 1995
Kiemelt értékelések
Itt még többet tudunk meg Eve és Roarke érzéseiről és ennek örültem. Eve eléggé makacs és fél annyira az új kapcsolattól, hogy ingázzon. Ellenben Roarke biztos abban amit akar. Mindketten tudják, hogy ez nem egyszerű.
Remélem nem lesz minden későbbi ügy egyik legfontosabb közös pontja Roarke meg a hírneve mert ez hamar unalmas lesz.
A nyomozás sokszor nem is tűnt komolynak. Ha engem annyian leüvöltenek, mint Dallast és nem tűröm, hanem vagy elsírom magam vagy megütök valakit. Ez így nem gyász, hanem meghurcolás.

“I actually went into your closet and stole one of your shirts—one of the black silk ones you have dozens of. I put it on, then snuck out of the house like a thief so Summerset wouldn’t catch me.”
Absurdly touched, he nuzzled her neck. “At night, I’d play your transmissions over, just so I could look at you, hear your voice.”
“Really?” She giggled, a rare sound from her. “God, Roarke, we’ve gotten so sappy.”
“We’ll keep it our little secret.”
“Deal.” She leaned back to look at his face.”
„We're on there? All on there?”
„I'll take care of it.”
She started to speak again, then got a good look at his face. The devil took over. „I'll be damned, Roarke. You're embarrased.”
„Certainly not.” If he'd been wearing anything but skin, he would have pushed his hands into his pockets. „It was simply an oversight. I said I'd take care of it.”
„Let's play it back.”
He stopped short, and gave Eve the rare pleasure of seeing him google. „I beg your pardon?”
“You are embarrassed." She leaned over to kiss him, and while he was distracted, snatched
the disc. „That's cute. Really cute.”
„Shut up. Give me that.”
„I don't think so.” Delighted, she danced back a step and held the disc out of reach. „I bet
this is very hot. Aren't you curious?”
„No.” He made a grab, but she was very quick. „Eve, give me the damn thing.”
„This is fascinating.” She edged back toward the open patio doors. "The sophisticated,seen-it-all Roarke is blushing.”
