Publisher Description

Bart Minnock, founder of the computer gaming giant U-Play, enters his private room, and eagerly can’t wait to lose himself in an imaginary world, to take on the role of a sword-wielding warrior king, in his company’s latest top-secret project, Fantastical.

The next morning, he is found in the same locked room, in a pool of blood, his head separated from his body. It is the most puzzling case Lieutenant Eve Dallas has ever faced, and it is not a game....

She is having as much trouble figuring out how Bart Minnock was murdered as determining who did the murdering. The victim’s girlfriend seems sincerely grief-stricken, and his quirky but brilliant partners at U-Play appear shocked as well. No one seems to have had a problem with the enthusiastic, high-spirited millionaire.

Of course, success can attract jealousy, and gaming, like any business, has its fierce rivalries and dirty tricks—as Eve’s husband, Roarke, one of U-Play’s competitors, knows well. But Minnock was not naive, and he knew how to fight back in the real world as well as the virtual one.

Eve and her team are about to enter the next level of police work, in a world where fantasy is the ultimate seduction—and the price of defeat is death.

"Another great addition to the series. Sure did learn alot about the gaming industry in 2060. She still keeps us updated on her cast of characters but I wish she would add more about some of them. I can't wait until Eve and Roark get to babysit Bella. That would be great fun to read."

    " A good book, I was so happy that I figured out the bad guy- just had a feeling. Yah on Nadine's book release- love her dedication. I had a little hard time grasping the halo room scenario, but enjoyed the gaming aspect. "

    " I enjoyed this volume of the In Death series. I liked that the victim and suspects are all computer nerds basically. The plot wasn't challenging on this one since the murder weapon and killer are fairly obvious from the beginning. It was still an interesting ride along the way. I just was frustrated with the fact that the ending was obvious and it took so long for the main character to work through all the wrong options to get to the correct one. "

    " This was a very good Eve Dallas/Roarke book; BUT a little disclaimer--it has LOTS of computer tech talk that was way beyond my meager knowledge of bits, bytes, ram, and rom. Fun read though; and the ending is terrific! "

    " Okay, this was not one of my favorites, but I suppose if you're into video games, it might intrigue you. I love most of the books in this series, but this one left me wanting. I enjoy the earlier books in the In Death series where Nora Roberts delves more into Eve's and Roarke's past. "

    " I liked the book but compared to some others she has written it is by far not my favorite. It actually took some doing to get through the first half of the book. Once it got going I was ok and read the rest. "

    " Nora Roberts is definitely saving her best writing for her "In Death" series. An intersting story line here - if you die in a virtual reality game, do you really die? "
