Apprentice in Death by J.D. Robb

Apprentice in Death by J.D. Robb - 375 pages

Eve Dallas is looking forward to a quiet evening at home with her husband Roarke when she gets the call of a sniper that killed three at the skating rink in Central Park.  This is just the first attack by a long distance serial killer sniper.  It's up to Eve to figure out the targets and to take down the killers.

I really enjoyed this audio book.  It is the latest in Nora Roberts' futuristic mystery series.  The killers were exceptionally chilling in their motives and psychology.  A great addition to the series.

It's Nick and Amy's five year anniversary, only it looks like Amy has been murdered and all of the clues point to Nick.  This book is masterfully manipulative, jerking the reader's emotions (as well as understanding of the truth) back and forth, and really providing a gripping story that will keep you reading until the late hours.  This book is a journey through a marriage, and raises alot of questions about honesty and authenticity.

Whenever I get a book like this that I was on a long wait list to read, it always has to prove itself to me, that it was worth the wait.  This one was worth it- the only drawback is that if you're anything like me, you'll be desperate to have someone else to discuss it with.
