Celebrity in Death by J.D. Robb is the 34th book in the “In Death” suspense series. Publisher: Putnam, February 2012

Lieutenant Eve Dallas is no party girl, but she’s managing to have a reasonably good time at the celebrity-packed bash celebrating The Icove Agenda, a film based on one of her famous cases. It’s a little spooky seeing the actress playing her, who looks almost like her long-lost twin. Not as unsettling, though, as seeing the actress who plays Peabody—drowned in the lap pool on the roof of the director’s luxury building. Talented but rude, and widely disliked, K. T. Harris had made an embarrassing scene during dinner. Now she’s at the center of a crime scene—and Eve is more than ready to get out of her high heels and strap on her holster, to step into the role she was born to play: cop.

J. D. Robb has done it again, she pulled me right into the Eve’s world and I didn’t not want to let go. When an actress falls prey to her evil machinations, Eve must stand for her and sift out the one person who had the balls to shut this woman down. When Eve works a case, her dedicated pursuit of the killer will end when they are locked up in a cage and the irony is they don’t think they belong there. Everything is in place for a great story, the murder, the apprehension of the killer, the romance, the friendship and in this book, that precious moment with Eve and Bella. This was another great read in this wonderfully awesome series.
