About this listen

“The energy and artistry Ericksen puts into her presentation make for an exciting listen.”—AudioFile (Earphones Award Winner)

The #1 New York Times bestselling author J. D. Robb spins an epic tale of loyalty, treachery, murder, and the long shadow of war…

His passport read Giovanni Rossi. But decades ago, during the Urban Wars, he was part of a small, secret organization called The Twelve. Responding to an urgent summons from an old compatriot, he landed in New York and eased into the waiting car. And died within minutes…

Lieutenant Eve Dallas finds the Rossi case frustrating. She’s got an elderly victim who’d just arrived from Rome; a widow who knows nothing about why he’d left; an as-yet unidentifiable weapon; and zero results on facial recognition. But when she finds a connection to the Urban Wars of the 2020s, she thinks Summerset—fiercely loyal, if somewhat grouchy, major-domo and the man who’d rescued her husband from the Dublin streets—may know something from his stint as a medic in Europe back then.

When Summerset learns of the crime, his shock and grief are clear—because, as he eventually reveals, he himself was one of The Twelve. It’s not a part of his past he likes to revisit. But now he must—not only to assist Eve’s investigation, but because a cryptic message from the killer has boasted that others of The Twelve have also died. Summerset is one of those who remain—and the murderous mission is yet to be fully accomplished…

A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

Solid, as always!

These books are like an old comfy sweatshirt. You know what to expect, you enjoy it, and it’s easy to throw on. But it’s nothing new or exciting. Always happy to listen to these books regardless though.

One of my favorite In Death books.

This one dives onto Somerset's past in the Urban Wars. Great story about the importance of honor and friendship in fighting the good fight.

Another killer book! Pun intended 😬

Loved everything. Love Susan E as a reader! She is part of the series now and it could not exist without her.

The connections between the characters and the interesting plot was amazing.

I liked how Dallas and Somerset grew closer and we got to know more about Somerset

Great story of urban war heroes

As always, JD Robb hits it out of the park. Eve, always rough around the edges, is brilliant at her job.
