#8 Connections in Death by J.D. Robb

The latest murder that Eve investigates has a very loose connection to Roake by way of he had just hired the victim’s sister. That and Eve had met her the evening before at a party and her date was Crack. The opening chapter was nice since you got to see almost everyone of the secondary characters in the series. Trina’s name does get mentioned but Eve is lucky enough to escape her for this book. The murder is staged as an OD but it doesn’t fool Eve and it quickly looks like part of something else. Most of the criminals in this one are overconfident and not too bright. A nice easy murder case to solve and the streets of NYC are made a bit safer due to Eve and her department.
