In this 5th installment, Eve must balance between loyalty and duty. She is investigating the death of a fellow policeman, the same officer that trained Lt Feeney, her own trainer and more importantly friend. Under orders from the commander, she is instructed to conduct the case in secrecy. She is led thru a world of black magic, satanism and violence. After the funeral she was appoached by the officer's grandaughter with a story of murder and abuse, but before Eve is able to question her she is killed. When Feeney discovers Eve's undercover work, he feels betrayed and angry and lashes out to her. So not only does she have to discover an evil murderer, she must figure out how to repair her relationship with Feeney. It was a fast paced book and I strongly recommend this book, although the flashes of black and white magical worlds are a bit different.
I am now off to read book 6th.

Another winner in the "...IN DEATH" series, CEREMONY IN DEATH finds Eve Dallas dealing with things that mere science can't explain. Although Dallas believes that evil comes in the form of men, you'll get a little surprise when you find out exactly how other characters from the series, including Roarke and Dr. Mira, feel about it.
Another great read, with high emotion, action, suspense, and romance.
This is an awesome series!

Enjoyed this book very much. The plot centers around witchcraft, Satanism and Wiccans. I found the end more satisfying that some of the earlier ones in the "In Death" series, although I've enjoyed them all!

This is the 5th in a futuristic detective series written by J. D. Robb / Nora Roberts.
Helpful Score: 2
I love all the J. D. Robb (Nora Roberts) books which happen in a future time when people live much longer than now but there are few things we take for granted now such as "real" meat, coffee, etc. Eve Dallas is married to the world's richest man and also an extremely good Detective.

MYSTERY THRILLER NORA ROBERTS WRITING AS J.D. ROBB 6TH BOOK IN THE IN DEATH SERIES
In the most dangerous case of her career, every step Eve takes brings her closer to a confrontation with humanitys most seductive form of evil.
Helpful Score: 1
As with all Nora Roberts (writing as JD Robb) this book was hard to put down!
Great reading!.
Very interesting dealing with the Occult. This series of books is really good.
The fifth of the "In Death" series by JD Robb and they just keep getting better!
Not among my favorite of the Eve Dallas books. Too much of the arcane for my taste. Still, it has a very nice denouement so I'm keeping it. Worth your time if you like futuristic murder mysteries.
Eve is confronted with both witches of dark and white. She has to prove which witch is respensible for several murders.
Eve Dallas is ordered to investigate the death of a fellow officer. She is not allowed to tell Captain Feeney about her investigation, because the officer was his friend. This investigation leads Eve and Peabody to a Wiccan Coven and then to a satanic cult.
Though it was very easy to figure out who was the killer, the book was still very entertaining. We learn a little more about Peabody's background in this book. Her character is getting more and more interesting. We are also introduced to a teenager named Jamie who wants to be a cop when he grows up. My rating: 4.5 Stars.

If you don't care for Nora Roberts BUT love Mystery/Dark Thrillers with a side of romance and a dash of comedy - then I think you'll love J.D. Robb's ... In Death series written by Nora Roberts alter ego.
I won't go into the details of the books but will tell you this: Superb character development, continuity of the story line (which means you really need to read the books in order although they can stand alone) is top notch, the relationships that are webbed and weaved together throughout each page are phenomenal and let's the reader 'really' get to know the characters.

I really like this series and the characters in it. This is another great one from J.D. Robb and I strongly suggest reading this one as well as all of the others.
interesting story about good and evil and witches.
Exciting suspense thriller. J. D. Robb does it again I am hooked and am on to the next book.
The fifth in J.D. Robb's addictive Eve Dallas series. This copy features different cover than the one pictured.
This book was very very good and the story plot was excellent. Nora Roberts is an excellent writer. I love all her books and have not found one that I did not like.
I urge all mystery readers to pickup a copy of her books and find out for themselves.

I love powerful Lt. Eve Dallas and how the complex New York City crimes are solved. If you don't wanna bite her husband, don't read these books! Nora Robert's best writing is as JD Robb in this "In Death" series of some 30+ stories to date. I collect all of the JD Robb books, but skip the Roberts, whose stories are not as tight as those about Lt. Eve Dallas - ass kicker! If the future of New York City is like this, I fear these futuristic killers who are sneaky and complex.
Eve Dallas Rocks!!
Another great book in this series. Eve and Roarke are so much fun. Love those two
This one was one of my most favorite. Read this one in day and a half.
this is a 39 book series
that i started reading thru my LIBRARY
borrowing to read on my KINDLE
they did not have books 1-5 in the series
and no USED book shops did either
BUT AWESOME
PBS had them
and i got them and found out how the series began
and how the characters related in the beginning
trying to decide
if i ""NEED"" this series in paperback form on my bookshelves....might just need the rest of the books

what a great series!. . . im reading it in order, TY to PBS for the easy way. Ceremony was a good story, J D does a great job with Eves exploits. The setting in the future is spot on as I would imagine it. The storys go right along with it and are blended nicely.
I did not like the ending, it seemed forced to me and didn't quite run smoothly like all the other books I've read in this series.
Enjoyed it very much
In death series J.D.Robb at her best
death of a fellow police officer- most daangerous case to date
Another great J.D. Robb book!
A Great book in a great series.
Book 5 in the JD Robb "Death" series.
In the course of investigating the death of a fellow police officer, Lt. Eve Dallas finds practicing witches, benign and evil. Another solid entry in the series with a few surprising twists at the end.
These books never disappoint Eve Dallas is a great character, once you read one you are hooked to read this entire series.
a fantastic read, as always. one of these days I'll figure out the whodunit before Eve!
excellent
another great JD Robb book.
Front cover a little worn but is in good shape.Great read.
Very good book....kept me reading even when I should have been going to bed. I had to find out who the killer was.
Great book!! I loved the mystical side of it.
A very good read it was hard to put down
Book 5 of the Eve Dallas series. I really enjoy this series. In this story, Eve faces off with some dark magic evil doers.
excellant read!
Loved it!
Lt Dallas conducts a secret investigation in to the death of a fellow cop. When a dead body turns up in her own front yard, she is drawn into a world of witchcraft
Another wonderful Eve Dallas book. I can't read them fast enough.

Lt Eve Dallas has a brush with the occult in this great book.
Nora Roberts writes as J.D. Robb in series about Eve Dallas, a New York City detective,and her husband Roarke. Set in the mid 21st century
The only difference from the picture shown is for this book is I have the original cover from the first printing. I absolutely Love these books!!
The 5th book in the Eve Dallas series set in the future. Little romance, little science fiction, some suspense.
Great book, she is always an awesome writer and this time is no different.
I love this series and how there is always something there that brings you in from the first page.

another great book with Eve Dallas and Roarke.
Excellent series. Enjoyed this book.
Conducting a top secret investigation into a fellow officer put Eve Dallas in the middle of a religious cult who belives in killing and sex as a way to worship. Another thriller that gets Eve almost killed in book 5 of the series. Good and fast reading summer book.
This book was gory and about satanism, so not my cup of tea. I really hated it. Also, Eve Dallas is a tremendous bitch, mean to her co-workers and "friends" and ungrateful of her fabulous husband Roarke. She's only considerate to the dead, and works herself nearly to death. If only. The more I read these in death books, the more I hate Dallas. Going to take a break from this nasty POS.
Awesome book!
