Vendetta in Death: An Eve Dallas Novel Kindle Edition

by J. D. Robb (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.7 out of 5 stars 19,933 ratings

Lieutenant Eve Dallas must keep the predator from becoming the prey in Vendetta in Death, the newest thriller from the #1 New York Times bestselling author J.D. Robb.

She calls herself Lady Justice. And once she has chosen a man as her target, she turns herself into a tall blonde or a curvaceous redhead, makes herself as alluring and seductive as possible to them. Once they are in her grasp, they are powerless.

The first victim is wealthy businessman Nigel McEnroy. His company’s human resources department has already paid out settlements to a couple of his young victims—but they don’t know that his crimes go far beyond workplace harassment. Lady Justice knows. And in one shocking night of brutality, she makes him pay a much steeper price.

Now Eve Dallas and her husband, Roarke, are combing through the evidence of McEnroy’s secret life. His compulsive need to record his misdeeds provides them with a wide range of suspects, but the true identity of Lady Justice remains elusive. It’s a challenging case, made even more difficult by McEnroy’s widow, who reacts to the investigation with fury, denial, and threats. Meanwhile, Lady Justice’s criminal crusade is escalating rapidly, and if Eve can’t stop this vigilante, there’s no telling how much blood may be spilled…

"A rousing futuristic hunt for a serial killer of victims no one will mourn." - Kirkus

"The camaraderie and love that permeates every aspect of Eve's world is a joy to read. As much as I want each killer caught, I hate to see the end of any In Death book and immediately can't wait for the next one in the series...yet another stellar tale from the gifted J. D. Robb!" - Fresh Fiction

The book arrived in great shape, although the envelope it was in was ripped in places. I love the In Death series by J. D. Rob. And this book was no exception. All the twists and turns and investigations and how Eve puts it all together to catch the bag guys. And the secondary characters are as important as the main characters. Plus Eve and Roarke are goals.

    Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2025
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    I will say that I’m inclined to give this closer to 4.5 stars. Dallas’s assumption that a person could not love an ex-spouse after they had cheated and betrayed a person seems overly narrow. A person could certainly understand that an ex-spouse was bad for them and was in the wrong and yet still hold onto love and affection. Plus, if there was no closure or if the ex-spouse never faced any consequences, there were likely be considerable grief that s/he was killed before closure or those consequences could occur. Darla is quite right that strong love and hate can coexist. While Dallas feels strong emotions - terror, anger, love come to mind - she doesn’t tend to emote much unless she is in the grip of a nightmare. As a result, she doesn’t really understand or respect people who do. I think this leads to a type of blindness. You will have to read the book to see to what extent Dallas is blinded.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Always a joy to read
    Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2019

    Obviously, I’m including a content note for rape, blood, and torture. It’s at roughly the same level as many of the other books in the series, so if you’ve liked the books so far, there’s little reason why you’d stop now.

    It’s a plot-heavy entry into the series, rather than the occasional world- and character-heavy volumes. We do get to see Mavis in this briefly and of course Roarke comes along to help out Eve. We get the usual nods to series regulars such as Nadine and Jake, and Eve narrowly avoids doing some socializing. Unsurprisingly, more and more of the people Eve has to interview recognize her and Peabody from Nadine’s book and movie. Sometimes this helps, and sometimes it hinders, but Eve is starting to learn to cope with it. In this volume, Eve gets to meet a movie legend. Even though Eve has no idea who she is, Peabody is star-struck!

    I wish I had a better idea of how droids are supposed to act and function in this world. It has never really come together for me. In this volume, we quickly see that part of the reason one woman can deal with manhandling large guys is because she has a droid drive the car and string up the victims. But in all of Eve’s speculations, she and her colleagues keep coming back to the idea that the culprit must have an ally, if just to have someone driving the car. It never seems to occur to them that a droid could operate a car, but it’s also never mentioned that they generally can’t, so wouldn’t Eve have thought of that?

    The text isn’t quite as gloriously quotable as my favorite entries in the series. Also, Eve’s argument-with-the-perp dream is unnecessary; we already know why she disagrees with the killer’s sense of “justice”.

    Somehow Eve always leaves me wanting pizza! Good thing I have all the ingredients necessary in the apartment. I definitely enjoyed this book; it isn’t a perfect In Death novel, but it’s solidly good!

    Catching up with Eve Dallas through s new In Death novel is like catching up with a dear friend. I know the people in her life, the nuances of her relationships, her work ethic, and her troubled past. How rare it is that readers connect with a fictional character like this! Nora Roberts, writing as JD Robb, has refined and expanded the world of New York forty years in the future so that it feels as real as the now her readers inhabit. Her skill is remarkable; her writing is consistent and emotionally perfect.

    In this installment in the series, a woman with a vendetta against abusive men creates a super hero persona and mounts a campaign of gruesome torture and murder to appease her need to punish, to balance the scales of justice. Eve, a former victim of abuse, has to stand for the victims of this murderous spree, even though the victims are themselves perpetrators. As she tracks down the killer, she must define what justice means. Her support system— Roarke, Peabody, Mira, Feeney, Mavis, and even Bella—help her cope with this, another case that hits close to home.

    This novel satisfies me need for more In Death content, and best of all, sets up more story to come via good news from Mavis about a happy —to Eve and Roarke a harrowing — event to come.

    The first is a wealthy businessman. Found in front of his home, naked, tortured - and castrated. When the second one is found, Eve Dallas knows that there will be more, and that she - and her team - will have to find what the cases have in common, and hopefully find clues to lead to the murderer.
    After the last book, which was a bit on the slow side, this is the fast-paced story in the series we all know and appreciate. Although the reader - and Dallas, of course - knew fairly early who the murderer was, there was no proof for her to act upon. A page turner definitely, following her on her way to collect enough evidence.
    I am looking forward to the next one - I just love the "...in death" series and the main characters.
