Susan Ericksen has narrated so many In Death books she basically *is* Eve Dallas — and getting two full investigations back-to-back proves it.

  • Great if you want: two complete procedural mysteries with a beloved recurring cast
  • Listening experience: steady, comfortable pacing — satisfying and easy to binge
  • Narration: Ericksen owns every Dallas character; her vocal consistency across 36+ entries is remarkable
  • Skip if: you're new to the series — jump-in context is minimal

About This Audiobook

Two complete In Death novels are paired in this production. In Calculated in Death, a seemingly routine mugging victim turns out to be an accountant whose murder was carefully orchestrated to bury corporate fraud, drawing Lieutenant Eve Dallas into the dangerous overlap between organized crime and Manhattan's financial elite. In Thankless in Death, a deeply ungrateful young man snaps during Thanksgiving week and embarks on a killing spree, forcing Eve to chase a killer who is learning as he goes.

Susan Ericksen's commanding narration is a defining element of the In Death experience, and this double production showcases her ability to sustain two full novels with consistent energy and character differentiation. Her Eve Dallas remains a singular voice in audio fiction, and the pairing offers more than thirteen hours of Ericksen at her best. Fans of J.D. Robb's procedural world will find this an exceptional value that holds the attention throughout.
