Customer Reviews

glad to find this Eve Dallas story

I was glad to find this story. I don't buy collections of short stories often, and therefore, had missed this story and am glad they put in a book by itself. I knew there had been a story about a diamond heist but hadn't been able to find it as the title doesn't follow the rest of the series' naming convention. Just wish it was in hardcover as I re-read series periodically, like to read the novels in order, and hardcover lasts better than paperback. I'm going to have to figure out where this one fits between other In Death novels. I hope the next novel, after Fantasy In Death, puts this novel in the In Death list on the fly leaf, though I know the publishers haven't done this for three novellas that I own in slim paperback editions (Interlude In Death and Midnight in Death are 2 of the 3).

Look for NR seal

To all the bad reviews and people blaming Nora Roberts for a reprint fooling them... Just reading the description, I knew I had read this book before and the year it takes place is 2059 which is a year + behind where the story is for new books. Most of her new books are "In Death", so that is telling also. Also, for books written under the Nora Roberts name, she started putting a NR seal in the upper corner of all her NEW books. She started doing this years ago, when all her books started being reprinted. I loved this book and would read it again. I understand that it is frustrating to get an old book you think is new, but NR fans should be aware of this.

great story

very good story.unfortunetly i purchased this book not knowing that this same story was already in her book "remember when"

thanks for the warnings

I also would have bought this book. Thank you to all of you who warned this is a reprint.

Love JD Robb

Loved this book, but I loved it the first time I bought it when it was called "Rember When". It came out the first time with a book from Nora Roberts attached called Hot Rocks. Nora and JD are the same author and i love everything she writes. Was not happy to pop open the book this weekend home sick in bed to find out I had bought a book i already read and had in my library. I will continue to buy everything JD Robb puts out I love all her character and love Eve Dallas. I have every book out that JD robb has written (some autographe, true fan) and have read them at least 3 times, even once in order, but I was not happy to get excited by another book with Eve Dallas as a charter and its not part of the death series... had me intrigued. But lo and behold it was a death series book and had been released before under a different name. BUMMER... have I been soured? NO... but not happy to have been decieved...Shame on her publisher....
