Reading Challenge for 2023

Immediately after hearing these words, uttered to her by an old Romanian woman bleeding to death in the street, detective Eve Dallas begins to notice that her latest case has come with a number of interesting side-effects: visions of the deceased, instant familiarity with rooms she’s never seen before, and fluency in Russian. Likewise, there appears to be a force inside of her, a spirit other than her own, that won’t let her rest until she’s found Beata, the old woman’s great-granddaughter, whose disappearance two months prior remains a mystery. Desperate to be free of her new “gifts”, Eve pursues the facts until she discovers a link between Beata’s disappearance and the disappearance of eight other young women, all of whom attended the same dance classes, none of whom were ever heard from again.

I always enjoy reading the In Death books, but I has said this one is a fun one to read. I love Eve and all the gang and this one for a novella is one of my favs. 

You'll enjoy how Eve won't let go of the missing granddaughter even though it's not really the case she's working. The paranormal part of the story is enjoyable, and you'll like it more because of who it's happening to.

I'm glad that both cases (the grandmother and granddaughter) are solved, and nothing is left hanging. The story moves fast and for a novella you don't feel like anything is missing. Robb is one of those authors who can write novella's well. Some authors can't. 

You know me I say all the time to read series in order and I truly believe that this series should be read in order, all but for the novellas. If you skip one and go back no big deal. They don't often give anything away.
