Fury in Death,

                             Death in Fury

                              By J. D. Robb


Fury in Death, the 63rd Novel in J. D. 

The "In Death" series by Robb follows

 Lieutenant Eve Dallas as she investigates a

 brutal murder that appears to be nearly

 unsolvable at first. Inside of his highly

 secure home office, the wealthy biotech

 executive Larry Chu is found beaten to

 death. Eve immediately recognizes that this

 was not a regular killing because of the

 extreme violence. Someone wanted the

 victim to suffer, and the killer appears to

 possess extraordinary strength.

As Eve begins investigating, she discovers

 that Chu had connections to a powerful and

 secretive company. The murder may be

 connected to things that happened many

 years ago, according to suspicious financial

 transactions and money in offshore

 accounts. Eve discovers more and more that

 Chu wasn't the only one hiding something 

as she digs deeper. Eve is drawn into a

 disturbing tale that involves corporate

 greed, scientific research, betrayal,

 retribution, and buried secrets by the

 investigation. Behind the respectable public

 image of a successful company lies a history

 that may include dangerous experiments

 and decisions that caused devastating

 consequences for innocent people.

The crime's emotional nature makes the 

case particularly difficult for Eve. The

 murderer is not just driven by money or

 power. His actions seem to be the result of

 years of grief and rage. Because of the

 traumatic events that took place in her own

 past, Eve has a more intimate

 understanding of this kind of emotional

 darkness than the majority of detectives.

 She is aware that just because she can

 comprehend why someone might become

 consumed by rage does not mean that it is

 acceptable for them to commit murder. Eve

 gradually links the murders to a much

 larger plot as she collaborates with her

 trusted team and Roarke. She is forced to

 question how far powerful individuals will

 go to safeguard their interests and how

 much suffering can be concealed when

 money and influence are involved with

 each new clue. At its heart, Fury in Death is

 more than a futuristic murder mystery. It

 investigates the conflict between "justice"

 and "revenge." The story asks if personal

 suffering can ever be used as a justification

 for breaking the law on one's own. Eve's

 investigation becomes a search not only for

 a killer but also for the truth behind the

 anger that created him.

The novel combines J. D. Robb's familiar

 futuristic police-procedural style with an

 emotional story about loss, corruption,

 revenge, and the difficult difference

 between punishment and justice
