Episode 214: Spiritless Ghostwriter: We Review the Reviews of "Taken in Death"
Podcast in Death
Hi, Everyone! This week we are talking about “Strangers in Death,” Nora’s homage to “Strangers on a Train.” It’s an interesting book with some really great character interactions. AJ suggests that the main theme for this book is “payback.” Paying back a debt, or owing someone for services rendered. The […]
We’re back with another “We Review the Reviews”! In this episode, we’re a bit upset by people’s disrespect of Eve by calling her “Detective” rather than “Lieutenant.” We go off on a rant about how “award winning authors” (and we are skeptical about the “award winning” part) shouldn’t review books […]
Hey, Everyone! This week we are reviewing “Born in Death!” The one where Mavis finally has that freaking baby!! This book is about babies but it’s also about “Trust.” The first victim, Natalie, trusted the wrong person with the information that she had found discrepancies in financial data, and thereby […]
Hey, Everyone!! It’s our 2-Year Anniversary!! And we were SO honored to have our friend Susan Ericksen as our special guest on our 2-Year Anniversary Show!! Also joining us were several of our Patrons who watched us record this episode LIVE!! In this episode we chat with Susan about the […]

This book has pretty much everything you could ever want in an “In Death” book: Great mystery, heart wrenching relationship issues, great scenes of Peabody and McNab in Jamaica, great scene with Mavis and then an Eve makeover that leads to one of the best sex scenes in the series…Eve […]
This week we are reviewing “Forgotten in Death,” Book #53 in the “In Death” series by J.D. Robb, and our impressions of this book are mixed. Jen and Tara liked the book a lot, and AJ thought it was good but not great. We think this book is VERY 2020 […]
This week, we review Judgment in Death, and this is another LONG episode! Lots of complicated Roarke feelings and marital disagreements between Eve and Roarke that needs to be unpacked. Also a lot of “Pissed off and Problematic Roarke,” though both Eve and Roarke are being dumbasses in this book. […]
This week, we review Witness in Death, and again…it’s a LONG episode because so much happens! First of all, A.J. points out all the times that when she first read this book, she thought Roarke was a Dick. One of those times being that he almost ruined the perfectly lovely […]
