Glory in Death

I liked Eve more than in the first book, and I really liked the twists in the investigation.

Despite being an entirely different writing style, it does remind me a little of the early instalments of the Lincoln Rhyme series. In both series the perpetrator is often unapparent or so entirely dismissed that you'll just forget this could be the one.

I like also, how the relationship with Roarke progresses, although I find it a bit fast going and totally understand why Eve values her independence to this extent.

ReRead dam that relationship was fast I had forgotten how fast.

I'm struggling to understand why this is such a popular series. The writing is flat, Eve is quite unlikeable and the plot is lacking in pace, only picking up in the last few chapters. I ended up skimming several chapters just to speed things up. Another thing that annoyed me was the reference to the jugular on several occasions when the descriptions were clearly about an artery. I know this was written in the days before everyone watched medical and forensic dramas, but inaccuracies put me off books. I doubt I'll be reading any more of the series.
