J. D. Robb's #1 New York Times bestselling In Death series explodes with intrigue, passion, and suspense in this novella about the darkest night of Lieutenant Eve Dallas's life—when a killer comes to call...

Eve's name has made a Christmas list, but it's not for being naughty or nice.  It's for putting a serial killer behind bars.  Now the escaped madman has her in his sights.  With her husband, Roarke, at her side, Eve must stop the man from exacting his bloody vengeance—or die trying...

5.0 out of 5 stars Even the novellas are powerful!
Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2023

This was an emotional roller coaster from beginning to the very end. Powerful emotions, gut wrenching ones, from hating a monster disguised as a man, to the all encompassing love one has for work partners, close friends the person is working with, and for a life partner. Knowing your time to find the monster is finite, and feeling responsible for the lives already lost is all the reader can hang on to. Each and every single supporting character you read about in these stories is very important to the story and in turn to the reader. However the main characters, Eve Dallas, Rourke, and to an only slightly lesser degree, Peabody are the ones the reader concentrates on and grieves for when they are hurt. The reader roots for all the characters knowing but not really knowing 100% they will make it through and take down the monsters and provide justice for the characters Eve Dallas stands up for and represents. As will ALL the books this author writes, I cannot recommend her stories highly enough!

4.0 out of 5 stars A Killer Christmas Naughty List
Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2018

"It didn't look as though the last days of December 2058 were going to be much of a party."

FINAL DECISION: A quick and dirty crime investigation centered primarily on the personal aspect of Eve's job. The compressed nature of this story ratcheted up tension in this story and the emphasis on the personal rather than the crime details makes this a really good story.

THE STORY: It's Christmas and a killer has a naughty list of targets. Newly escaped from prison, the killer is out to get revenge against those who put him behind bars. He is taking, torturing and leaving the bodies in public view. Eve in in a race to stop him from killing more especially with both Dr. Mira and Eve are on the list so.

OPINION: This is an enjoyable novella and one that I recommend to people who just want to try out the In Death series without committing to a full novel. The crimes and investigation are compressed with a lot of pressure on Eve. Yet all the elements that make the series successful: the personal connection Eve has, the love between her and Rourke, the friendships that Eve has, and the humor and drama are all present in this story.

Things are clearer and more blunt in many ways because of the short story but I enjoyed that this book continues and expands all the important parts of the ongoing story in the series.

For readers of the series, this offers some drama and developments in Eve's relationship with Dr. Mira.

The novella also allows some intense moments with Eve and Rourke that I enjoyed a great deal.

WORTH MENTIONING: This book follows immediately from the events of HOLIDAY IN DEATH and also serves as an epilogue to that book.

CONNECTED BOOKS: MIDNIGHT IN DEATH is a novella in the In Death series and is book 7.5 of that series. This novella fits right in for readers of the series, but is a nice little crime mystery for those who haven't dipped into the series yet.

STAR RATING: I give this book 4 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars I am in love....
Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2012

I recently discovered this series and have been reading almost a book a day...two days at the most. I can't put them down. What I love the most about this series is the growth the characters experience. I have read other series, and after a few books, I felt I was reading the same story over and over (except for the Sue Grafton Alphabet books - also a favorite). But I must confess -- the reason I loved this book, as well as all the other Eve Dallas stories, is because I'm in love. No. I'm not in love with Roarke. I'm in love with Eve. I'm not going to go over the story in detail: it's fast paced, exciting, and it keeps the reader at the edge of their seat. Can't give away the ending but, I think Eve realizes that her life and her realtionships are more complicated than they used to be.
Eve Dallas is one of the most interesting characters I have come accross in this genre. She's stubborn, rude, outspoken, tough, tender hearted, sweet, caring, rambunctious, exasperating. She grows with every passing day and every experience...and I love her. The supporting cast is also amazing: Peabody, Feeney, McNabb, Dr.Mira and, yes, Roarke. As much as I love Eve, her character would not be the same without this cast of supporters. Please read this boook, but before you do so, try and start the series from the beginning so you can grow along with these wonderful (fictional - I know) people. I just hope Ms Roberts / J.D.Robb, never stops writing this series.

I absolutely love Eve, Roake and the rest of the Characters in the Death Series! After reading so many books in this series I wish they were real live people! I can't get enough of these books.... Thank you, thank you so much for the joy these books have made me feel! You have a wonderful talent. I love all the books you have written that I have read but for some reason this series is special for me. Please keep on writing them!

3.0 out of 5 stars Very good until the rushed and un-suspenseful ending
Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2022

This was a quick read, very well plotted, but the end comes quickly and without much suspense. The development was detailed, interesting, and unfolded much like a full length novel, so it was a little disappointing that the ending was so rushed. This would have been an excellent fully fleshed out novel, not as good in this shorter novella form. This robbed the book of its real potential.
